Things To Know

n New ARC Process. The ARC Committee approved an updated ARC process and application. Keep an eye out for the roll-out. The new application and process will be posted on the Baldwin Park Network.

n Architectural Review Committee. Any change to the building or property must have an application submitted for review. Some examples of re- quired reviews are commercial changes to exterior structures (roofing replacements and painting), landscaping and any signage. For the city to approve permits, the Commercial Owners Association must sign off on the project. All corresponding applications can be located on the Baldwin Park Network under Commercial Owners Association and Commercial Architectural Review Committee. For questions and application submission please feel free to email Bill at BPatterson@ BaldwinParkPOA.com. n Covenant Inspections. Like the ROA, the COA also has covenant standards. The property manager conducts monthly inspections of the parking lots and building to ensure these

standards are being kept. Any property not in compliance will get a violation. Covenant Committee Meetings are held on the fourth Tuesday of each month if needed.

n Baldwin Park Solutions. Commercial owners, tenants and managers can submit work requests through our new Baldwin Park Solutions system. It is located on the Baldwin Park Network. Simply click “Resident Home” at the top right, and you will find the link in the middle of the page. If you do not have a Baldwin Park Network account, you can request one from that page as well. Go to baldwinparknetwork.com to get started.

n Trash Talk. The dumpsters in the commercial lots are meant for trash bags and small items only. For all large items, please use OUC bulk pick-up. Stuffing these items in the dumpster or leaving them causes multiple issues, including dumpster breakdown and rodents. Visit orlando.gov/Trash-Recycling for more information and to schedule future pick-ups. n Loading Zones. Most parking lots around Baldwin Park have loading zones. These areas are for short-term loading and unloading vehicles only — and not for parking. Please make deliveries and unloads quick, because it can cause a traffic jam if these zones are blocked. Vehicles parked in these areas which are not loading/unloading will be tagged for towing at owner’s expense.
