RE: MERCHANT SQUAD (updated list)

Thanks for letting us know about the security issue.  I had not heard about none residents being in the building and while it would be great for all of us to meet this is a problem in my opinion that should be addressed ASAP and should not wait for us to meet and discuss in person.  If you are interested in being part of letter(email) on this please let me know and I can help coordinate it but will need help in the physical drafting since I am not personally the strongest writer but happy to work with anybody who wants to do a group letter about lack of security.  It is time that they see we are not willing to simply sit around any more and they need to start dealing with in an honest upfront manner.  It seems like they are willing to not deal with issues on a one on one basis so perhaps a group letter will be something they can't ignore.  I am personally should be around every night this week so if you are here in the building let me know and perhaps we can sit down one night to do the draft.

Also please be sure to check the google doc since a few new folks have been added to make sure we have all the folks on the list, I added new emails to this email. 

Finally I still do want to try and get a group meeting to talk about the growing list of issue we are haivng but realizing that will be hard with the holiday so I updated the doodle poll to add a few more days on the far side.  For the few folks who already filled out the poll please go back and check the new dates to let us know what will work.  http://doodle.com/poll/e9t2c2zw8usnhaziqh7evkrc/admin#table

To add on Jay's points re:Condo fees,  the building is still under construction and have not been handed over from the contractors (Lennar has their visitors wear hard hats walking in our courtyard!). With all these issues including security, garbage, mail, cleaning, no privacy, construction noise etc, we certainly should not be paying anything until all gets resolved. One more thing: I'd also be against it if they want us to pay PG&E retroactively: I have not read or signed anything about this. The reason we don't have individual PG&E accounts is because, again, the building is not being handed over from construction.

Best,

Thanks for the info. I never see anybody in the security car parked y the garage entry. I questioned the bldg mgmt re janitorial services since I am paying condo fees and got no response. The lobby is not clean, there has been potting soil on the floor of the 4th floor lobby for days, hallway floors are not vacuumed arc.

Hi neighbors,

These are very disturbing anecdotes. Thanks for sharing the stories--it's good to be informed. (I'll start carrying mace now.) Has anyone been reporting this to the property management, Lennar, Shipyard, or the police? 

Perhaps we can add a sheet to the Google doc to catalogue these incidents. That way, we have some data and specific examples, to build a case for installing cameras, activating exterior locks, hiring a difference security co, etc. 

Thanks,

Hi Everyone, a few nights ago I came across a homeless woman in the elevator. She told me not to say anything to anyone. I didn't get in of course and chose the stairs to go down but by that time, she was there too. I told her that she should leave - as nice as possible. Then she started to walk towards me saying I should shut the f$!ck up - several times. That got me scared and I walked around her as fast as I can to get outside the building to find the security who was super reluctant to get out of his car and move. Very frustrating. I'm anxious something bad could really happen and it would be too late.

Thanks Munir for that update.

Of a related note, that bike room door does not shut on its own and thus typically requires and extra pull shut.

Hello Everyone,

At 10:45pm tonight, we discovered a man passed out in the corridor in front of the door to the bike storage.  There was a strong smell of alcohol and urine.  Of course, security wasn't aware of the situation. We had to find the security guard on the phone in the garage and bring him to the man.  When woken up, the man asked for 911.  This person is not a resident of our building.

Another security team arrived at 10:55pm to get the man out of the building.  We recently received the email that the security gate and key fobs will start working on January 4th, however,  we need the system working now.  This is the third person in the building in 2 months!

Hello Merchant Neighbors!

It was wonderful meeting many of you yesterday at the Storehouse gathering. As I, or Jason, or someone else, discussed with you, we wanted to get a group email together. You should have also received access to a corresponding Shared Spreadsheet with three tabs:
  • Sharing: Share issues, requests and other things we've noticed during the move in and/or living process at our lovely Merchant building. I think we've all had our fair share of frustrations with the whole process, and there are still some ongoing frustrations, but the focus here is to come together as a group with one voice to go to Lennar with. This tab should be self explanatory, but is set up so we can start to categorize our issues that we will plan to go to Lennar with. 
  • Gatherings: Potentially set up gatherings so we can better get to know each other. A few options I heard last night was Rooftop Thursday Wine Downs & Workout bootcamps with Professor G. 
  • Contacts: This is our running list of people. It would be great if we get everyone in the building on this, so as you meet neighbors and get their emails, please share this with them and add their emails. Some of the emails didn't work because I couldn't make out the writing (Ramiro Castro #305, and Sasha & Katrina in #508) so if a neighbor didn't get this, please add their emails!
I have enabled the spreadsheet so everyone can edit it, so please add Sharings, Gatherings and definitely add new neighbors to the Contacts list. I'll make sure to recheck before future emails so newbies are added.

Thanks All! Really excited to be in this new home with everyone!
Greg


**One thing I want to be very clear about: this email list and corresponding spreadsheet are about sharing useful things with the entire group (or at least a subset of the group). If you have a complaint with a specific neighbor, put on your big girl or boy pants and take it up with them directly. This is not the venue for that. Thanks!
