Food Drive March 12th

Food Drive March 12th 10:00am – 12:00pm: The Beekman Cub Scouts will be organizing a food drive within North Side HOA for donations to the local food pantries. In the next week or two, the Cub Scouts will be dropping off paper bags to each unit. If you have any non-perishable items to donate, please place them in the paper bags and the Cub Scouts will then pick up the bags on March 12th between 10:00am and 12:00pm. You may leave the bags outside your door for pickup. Last year’s food drive was a success so if you have anything to donate, please do so. It’s for a good cause.

Recycling

Recycling: When disposing of recyclables into the recycle bins, please make sure all cardboard is broken down and any bottles, cans, etc. are loose in the bin. If you place a plastic bag full of recyclables in the bin, it contaminates the whole bin and Royal Carting will throw everything away in the trash. This defeats the purpose of the recycling bins. Plastic bags cannot be disposed of in the recycling bins.  If you have a bag of recyclables, please open the bag and pour the contents into the recycling bin. The bag then has to go in the dumpster.

Dumping

This is another reminder that dumping of bulk items is not permitted at or in any of the dumpsters on the property. There is a monthly bulk dumpster for bulk items.

It was brought to our attention that someone dumped a BBQ grill, a mattress and boxes at the 6400/6500 dumpster. If you dumped these items, please remove them and dispose of them elsewhere.

If anyone was a witness to who dumped these items, please let us know. Your report will remain confidential.

Unfortunately, the cost to clean up these items, unless the person who did it removes them, will have to come from the HOA dues that everyone pays each month which is not fair to those who properly dispose of their trash.

Landlords, please make sure your tenants are aware of the rule regarding dumping on the property. Thank you in advance and have a great day.

February Bulk Dumpster

The bulk dumpster for February has been confirmed for drop off on Thursday, February 17th. It will be picked up the following morning on Friday, February 18th at the top of the hill just past 7100 building.

As a reminder, items not allowed in the dumpster:

  • Items containing Freon (refrigerators, freezers, air conditioners)
  • Tires
  • E-waste (computers, TV’s stereos etc.)

Please make sure all items are INSIDE the dumpster and BELOW the top of the dumpster. Royal Carting will not take away anything on the ground and will not take anything that sticks out above the top of the dumpster. It cannot be transported with items hanging out of the top.

If your item does not fit for any reason, please wait for next month’s dumpster or dispose of it yourself at Royal Carting’s drop off location.

Ice Storm Update

Good morning everyone. We just spoke to the foreman of the snow company – They have been out salting the roads and stairs throughout the night and will continue until the precipitation stops. However, due to this type of the storm and the temperature outside, there will be icy conditions. Please use caution when outside and if you don’t have to go anywhere, please stay inside. We’ve been told the roads and highways are bad as well.

Have a great day and please let us know if you notice any areas of concern.
