Dear Owners and Residents:

This is a reminder that Strata is undertaking the verification of the FOBS (transmitter) and strata lot information for security reasons. This will help determine the exact number of FOBs that have been distributed and allow Strata to disable any lost or inactive fobs.

Instructions

• Residents/Owners must present their FOBS for verification to the Concierge in person during regular concierge hours.
  • The deadline for this audit is 4:00 pm on Friday, May 27, 2022.
  • After this, any FOBs that aren’t verified may be deactivated.
• In addition, the following must be brought to the Concierge:
  • A filled out Fob and Strata Lot Information Form (available in the lobby, or download from here);
  • Valid government picture ID for concierge to verify against owner registry;
  • For renters only, a letter from the owner of the Strata Lot authorizing the renter to complete the audit, or a copy of the tenant information form (Form K).
• If you have any questions, please contact the Strata Manager.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Dear owners and residents,

A fire alarm late in the evening of April 5, 2022 was triggered by cooking smoke that got into the hallway.

Residents are reminded to practice kitchen safety rules to help avoid possible fire and smoke. Please turn on the range hood and open windows to vent smoke out.  

Thank you for your consideration.

Dear residents,

Please be advised the Mega Hydronics Inc and Eagle West Crane will be onsite on Saturday, March 19 from 7am – 5pm to facilitate the make up air replacement. The work will mean that a portion of Homer Street between Drake and Pacific streets will be temporarily closed.

There will only be limited vehicle access with extenuating circumstances. Trying to accommodate vehicles and special requests is a distraction to the traffic control team and can cause delays to the crane, incurring additional costs.

The City of Vancouver has been instructed to hood all meters and mark them ‘no parking’ during the work. Any vehicles not related to the work will be ticketed and towed at owners’ expense if parked on Homer Street between Drake and Pacific. Access to the parkade and lobby is available via the back alley.

Pedestrian access is allowed on sidewalks except on the west sidewalk during the removal of the old rooftop unit and installation of the new unit. The east sidewalk will remain open at all times.

We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Below is a map of the closure. 

Please be advised that the partial road closure of Homer St. scheduled for Saturday, March 5, 7am – 5pm, is being postponed due to permit delays with the City of Vancouver.

Once a new schedule has been confirmed, a notice will be sent to residents.

We apologize for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience and cooperation.

Please see map indicating the closure.

Last year, all Pacific Point II units received bug screens for windows that open as per our contract with Cascadia Windows & Doors. Owners who don’t want their screens at this time can, of course, remove them and store them. 

Alternatively, if you want to get rid of your screens, we can put them in storage as spares for the future. Contact pacpoint2@residential.com if you wish to have your screens stored as spares. 

Please do not throw them away or you could be fined for improper disposal.

Your cooperation is appreciated.

Dear residents,

High humidity has been reported in some units, causing condensation and mould growth; humidity levels must be managed.

We remind residents that all Pacific Point 2 units have a humidistat linked to the bathroom fan which automatically exhausts moist air when relative humidity reaches the level set on the dial.  

We recommend that a setting below 40% humidity be maintained in order to keep condensation at a minimal level. Further adjustments should be made if condensation continues. This may require that window(s) be opened temporarily to provide additional ventilation, or that the humidistat’s dial be set lower.

Visit your PP2 Community site at PacPoint2.ca for this and other info.

Your PP2 Residential Committee

Please be reminded to be considerate of your neighbours and to ensure that all corrugated cardboard is flattened and placed in the bin provided, specifically for cardboard, in the lane. Also, avoid cardboard piling up and spilling over bins in the recycling room.

Please also be reminded that as per Pacific Point rules, failure to properly recycle may result in fines.

Your understanding and cooperation are appreciated.

Thank you.

Dear residents,

A number of units have been reporting that their units are unusually cold and that, in some units, air is blowing in through their range hood. We have identified two potential contributors:

1. Our rooftop Makeup Air Unit (MAU) has failed and is no longer running. That means we no longer have any heated fresh air or positive air flow from the hallways into our suites. In fact, the opposite can occur, with outside air now being sucked in through our vents. Unfortunately, delivery of a new MAU is not expected before February.
   
2. Our range hoods are equipped with a butterfly valve to prevent air backflow. As recommended in the past, these should be checked annually to make sure they are operating properly. They can fail over time or can get stuck open (or closed) by grease buildup.

Please refer to the document posted in PacPoint2.ca (pacpoint2.ca/2021/04/07/condensation-maintenance/) for details of how to check the butterfly valve in your range hood, as well as how to maintain other items that can contribute to high humidity levels. If you do not want to do this yourself, or are unable, you can contact Cityscape Maintenance Services (Tony Dohaniuk) at (778) 385-1976.
