Sonore Alarme, enfin! – Alarm Bell, Finally

Après des mois d'évaluations, nos bâtiments ont finalement été certifiés comme étant en mesure de soutenir la technologie sonnette d'alarme que nous avions choisi l'an dernier.

En guise de dédommagement pour le retard, nous avons également été offert un généreux rabais si nous pouvions augmenter substantiellement le nombre d'appartements pour laquelle nous souhaitons ajouter la sonnette. À l'heure actuelle, la quantité minimale spécifiée ne semble pas réaliste pour nous, mais nous allons fournir plus d'informations lorsque nous finaliser la transaction


After months of evaluations our buildings have finally been certified as being able to support the alarm bell technology we had selected last year.

As compensation for the delay, we have also been offered a generous discount if we were to substantially increase the number of apartment units for which we wish to order. At the moment, the minimum quantity specified does not seem realistic for us however we will provide more information when we finalize the deal.

Are posts bilingual?

Initially, they may not be but translation will be added very soon thereafter. If a comment is posted requiring a response, the answer will be in the language of the original comment.

How Do I Know That Something Has Been Posted to the Blog?

The easiest way is to subscribe to the blog. Use the E-mail subscription box on the left side of the screen.

What if a resident does not have internet access?

The purpose of this Blog is to make information available to as many people as possible. It’s not meant as a notification or announcement site. We plan to print copies of various posts during the month to make them available to residents without computers or internet access.

When official posts are made, they are automatically sent to all subscribers. Comments are only viewable when we log onto the Blog directly. We will try to ensure regular updates. If you have questions the best and fastest method of getting answers is by contacting the office.

The answer you posted to my question was vague and evasive.

The Blog is meant as a communications tool to provide an overview of events in the building. However it is a public forum and we do not wish to provide more detail than is necessary to individuals without an interest in our buildings As always, you may contact the office if you wish further information or have a specific question.

There are projects that I would like to see completed. Why are they not being done?

This is a concern best addressed to the manager. Ultimately, everything is a priority and we must choose an order in which to do things and where to place them in the budget. Rest assured that we wish the building to be the best that it can be and are working to do as much as possible while looking at ways to not increase costs.
