NO SMOKING REMINDER

In 2013, the Norman Street Condo Association, with the majority support of the building unit owners,  amended the master deed to create a smoke free building. This means that there is NO SMOKING allowed anywhere in the building, including inside the units. 
Violations of this amendment will result in fines, the same as would be incurred for the breaking of any other condo regulations. If you have questions, please contact Markwood Management at 781-639-4080 or e-mail them at markwoodmgt@hotmail.com.

Christmas Tree Update

Due to the heavy snow in early January, curbside Christmas tree pick-up for the weeks of January 6th and 13th is running behind schedule. If your tree is curbside, please leave it there. The City's contractor should have all trees picked up by Saturday, January 18th. You may also bring your tree any time to the lower field area at Gallows Hill Park on the corner of Mansell Parkway and Witch Hill Road.

Christmas Tree Disposal

Well it's that time of year again when people pack up their Christmas decorations and wrapping paper, and dispose of their Christmas trees. In past years you could take your tree to Dead Horse Beach in Salem for the Annual Christmas Tree Bonfire, but that event was recently cancelled because of the snow storm and record cold temperatures. This may leave you wondering what to do with your tree this year. As usual, some people resort to dragging it down the hallway and stairs and throwing it in the dumpster. This is not the preferred method as the trees take up so much space as to make it difficult to dispose of our regular trash.
Salem has scheduled curbside pick-up of Christmas trees as part of the regularly scheduled recycling pick-up, from Monday, January 6 2014, till Friday, January 17. Our regular trash/recycling day is Tuesday. Remove all decorations, tinsel, and lights from the tree and drag your it to the curb by the end of the driveway (do not block the driveway or the sidewalk) for Tuesday, January 7 , or missing that, Tuesday January 14, and the City of Salem will pick it up. If you miss those dates, leave the tree by the side of the dumpster rather than throwing it in the dumpster. If you have any questions, please contact Markwood Management. Thanks!
