  1. After purchasing, who should be contacted first and for what purpose? 

Answer:

    1. The primary point of contact is the management agent. The management agent is retained by the Association for day-to-day operation of Northface in accordance with para 3.2 of the Northface by-laws. If it is an issue outside of the Management agent’s responsibility, Management will contact the Board of Directors.

    2. For Emergencies such as fire, active crime or a life critical situation / accident, Owners should dial 9-1-1. A call to Management would be prudent for awareness and any required subsequent action.

    3. For non-emergency owner specific (not association issues) such as a lockout, owners should also contact Management.  As a final resort, After hours Emergency maintenance service calls can be be directed to the maintenance  company (currently EG Chandler at 603-356-6060).  Caution: A separate charge for these type services may be assessed to the Unit Owner. (Ref  (ref Spring 2012 newsletter, item 4)

  1. What is the schedule for the upcoming Association meetings?

Answer: An annual owners meeting is held each November.  In addition there are several open Board of Directors meetings throughout the year for the Board to conduct Board Business with owners invited/welcomed to attend to "..be afforded a reasonable opportunity to comment on any matter affecting the association." (NH Condo Law, Chapter 356-B:37-c).  Notice of all meetings will be sent to owners in advance by the management agent.  A current listing of dates can be found on the web title page at http://www.northfaceresort.com

 

  1. What paperwork does the Property Management need (such as copies of insurance)?

Answer: There should be no additional paperwork required after your purchase. The management company will reach out requesting contact and vehicle/pet registration information to ensure you are integrated into the Northface network.


  1. What is the protocol for owners desiring to make improvements to their unit?

Answer:

    1. For interior changes, ANY type of structural change must first be approved by the Board of Directors in accordance with the By-Laws.

    2. For ANY type of exterior change, owners must first obtain permission from the Board of Directors (e.g., Doors, windows, sliders, decking, alternative heat sources). Owners do not need to obtain permission for changes that the Board has already approved for association wide use. A listing of the Board of Directors approved association wide options is available on the web under “Worth Knowing” or the direct URL is http://www.northfaceresort.com/Misc/Modifications/Board_approved_modifications.htm

  1. What about receiving mail and package delivery to the units?

Answer: There in no mail delivery at Northface from the U. S. Postal Service. Full time residents may rent a P.O. Box. They report this has worked out fine for everything except delivery of packages. Some companies will not deliver to a post office box number and want a physical address. It has been hit-or-miss with UPS. Some drivers find Northface and others have not. Owners with a North Conway P.O. Box have gotten good results (and their packages!) using the following delivery address:

[Your name}
78 Grove Street #[Your PO Box number]
North Conway, NH 03860.
