Resident Handbook Community Centers All Community Centers are exclusively for the use of residents of Lewis-McChord Communities. Any resident in good standing (i.e. no balance owing) of any community may reserve any Community Center for personal social events if the center is available at the desired time. All reservations require a security/cleaning deposit. Restrictions may apply. A Community Center may be reserved for military functions such as FRG meetings, unit picnics, etc. on any available Mon-Thurs. No military functions will be scheduled on Fri-Sun. A LMH resident is responsible to complete the Community Center form and submit a security/cleaning deposit at the time the reservation is made. Please visit your District Office for more information to reserve a center.
Moving Out When it’s time to move out, we have a few simple requirements: 1. You must visit your District Office to complete a Notice to Vacate. At that time a pre-inspection appointment will be made. The date and time of your final inspection will also be scheduled at this time. 2. You must provide us with a valid forwarding address. 3. As required by your lease, you must leave your home in the same clean, undamaged and ready-to–rent condition as when you moved in. Ordinary wear and tear will be taken into account. Ordinary wear and tear would include such things as traffic wear across the carpet, but not burns or stains. When you vacate your home, any personal property left behind will be considered abandoned and may be disposed of, without liability to us, subject to applicable laws. Any incurred costs for cleaning, repairs, trash removal or items left behind after move out will be the responsbility of the vacating resident.

Playground Facilities We want you to enjoy our playground facilities. Only LMH residents and their guests are allowed to use the playground facilities. You agree that you, your occupants and guests will avoid conduct that we deem inappropriate or disruptive. You, your occupants and guests assume all health risks and all risks of personal injury, death, property loss or other damages that may result from the use of the recreational facilities and release us from liability for injury or loss. It may also be necessary to occasionally close facilities for maintenance.
Pet Responsibilities Pet droppings are odorous, unsightly, and a nuisance. More importantly, they can be a health hazard, especially for children. Therefore, pets must be kept under control so they do not defecate on parade fields, playgrounds, troop formation areas, sidewalks/walkways, common areas, miniature playgrounds of the housing areas, and neighbors' yards. You will immediately clean up droppings when your pet defecates outside of your residence yard. Droppings in your residence, including your yard, will be removed daily. Pet owners are responsible for disposing of their pet's waste, whether the pet is on a leash or in a fenced area. A pet owner who does not properly dispose of his/her pet's waste will be subject to a fine of $25 for each offense plus $5 per day that the violation persists. With the spring season comes heavy rain. If you have a pet that spends time in the fenced yard, make sure you are taking the best care possible of your four legged family member. • Make sure your pet has shelter from the elements. • Make sure your pet has food and water. • Bring your pet in when the weather is extreme.
