Governing Documents for The Condos Association
Your Moving Day
Before your moving day, email contactus@oldeivy.org to request a temporary gate entry code for your moving van driver to use at the Log Cabin Drive gates.
Please be aware that we have restrictions on moving trucks and vans & other move-in rules.
Leasing
The Condos Association has contracted with Rental Monitoring Solutions (RMS) to assist in managing units being leased. Owners apply through RMS, which processes background and credit checks. Owners must be in good standing with their association dues, water bills, etc. RMS collects a fee from the owner for this service.
If you have any questions related to leasing your unit, please email contact@rmsassist.com for information.
Parking
Each Condos unit has one garage space and one marked, assigned parking space. Residents must park their first vehicle in their garage and then use the assigned space for an additional vehicle. The Condos Covenant prohibits residents from using the garage space for storage. The second level above each garage was designed to provide abundant storage space. This applies to rental situations as well, where owners must make the empty garage space available to their tenants.
Guest parking spaces are marked, and are reserved for visitors. Residents should not park in these spaces or in the unmarked spaces. Learn more about the other parking rules at Olde Ivy.
Trash Collection & Recycling
Trash is collected on Fridays in the Condos. Cobb County requires that all trash be placed in plastic bags that are secured with a drawstring or other closure. Condos residents must put their trash bins out on collection mornings and remove them that evening.
For paint cans and other hazardous waste, you can find local disposal options on the Cobb County Household Hazardous Waste webpage.
Recycling
Residents contract individually with Custom Disposal for recycling pickup. Each contracted unit has recycling bins. Residents are asked to place them curbside in time for the pickup and return them to the unit garage within 24 hours. Pickups are every two weeks, early on a Friday morning (before the regular trash pickup). When trash pickup is adjusted for holidays, so is the recycling pickup.
All residents are asked to read and abide by the Custom Disposal Recycling and Solid Waste Guidelines.
Maintenance
As an owner, your maintenance responsibilities vary somewhat, depending on where in the community you live. It’s important that owners read the governing documents to understand maintenance responsibilities for both shared and personal space.
Our covenants assign maintenance responsibility for essentially anything serving a single unit to the individual unit owner whether it is within the unit as a water heater, or outside the unit like water lines serving the unit. Some unit owners have experienced water leaks that impact the commercial unit below. In such cases, the responsibility for the repair is with the individual unit owner. Similarly, leaks associated with a unit's water meter, water heater, PRV, faucets, toilets, condensation lines, etc. are the responsibility of the unit owner.
Also included in the individual unit owner's responsibility are all glass surfaces (including exterior cleaning), windows, window frames and casings and locks (including caulking of windows); all doors, doorways, door frames, and hardware that is part of the entry system of the Unit. You can read about this in more detail in section 18 beginning on page 33 of the Declaration.
A unique feature of a Condos home is the close relationship with the Commercial Association for the businesses below. In the event of a water line leak or other issues that result in damage to a commercial unit below, the Condo owner may be liable for the repair of the source of the leak/issue versus the Commercial Association. Except in a case where the Condo owner has been negligent, the Condo owner would not be liable for repairs to the commercial unit. If the Condo owner is contacted by the commercial unit or Commercial Association, we recommend that an owner contact the Condos Board for guidance.
