5.1. The Bylaws (Section 3.2.15) authorizes the Board, after giving notice and an opportunity to be heard, to levy fines (in addition to other rights and remedies) against Owners for violations of the Declaration, Bylaws or Rules. 5.2. Schedule of Fines a.
Fines for a breach of the Declaration, Bylaws, or Rules generally, and dependent upon the nature of the breach, shall be as follows: 5.2.a.1.1. 5.2.a.1.2. 5.2.a.1.3. 5.2.a.1.4.
b.
a warning for the first offense; $100.00 for the second offense of the same nature; $250.00 for the third offense of the same nature; $500.00 for the fourth offense of the same nature.
Fifth and Later Offenses of the same nature shall be in an amount as determined appropriate by the Board of Directors, in addition to any legal remedies the Board of Directors may pursue. Any ongoing violation that is not promptly resolved as of the date or time established for resolution of the violation shall be considered a new offense, fineable per the schedule above. At its discretion, the Board may forego a warning for a first offense and issue a fine for any breach of the Declaration, Bylaws or these Rules determined to be egregious in nature.
5.3. Procedures a.
The Board, or the Manager who is delegated to act on behalf of the Board, is authorized to apply and collect the fines imposed.
b.
In the event an Owner or Occupant believes that a violation of the Declaration, Bylaws or Rules exists, the Owner should report the suspected violation to the Manager by phone, email, or in writing as soon as practical.
c.
In the case of fines, the Board or Manager will first issue a verbal and/or written warning to the Owner. If the infraction is not promptly resolved, the Board or Manager will notify the Owner in writing of the breach and the penalty that will be assessed at the conclusion of a hearing (if requested). In each instance, the Manager will attempt to resolve the matter directly. If the Manager cannot achieve a resolution, then the matter will be referred to the Board where the Owner will be given the opportunity to present a response or explanation. The Board may thereupon determine what action is warranted including, but not limited to, affirming or modifying the penalty assessment; placing a lien on the Unit, commencing collection proceedings or legal action. If the Board determines that legal action is necessary, it will first offer to mediate the dispute prior to filing a lawsuit.
6. Unit Occupancy Information 6.1. All Owners are required to keep an up-to-date Unit Occupancy Form on file with the Manager (Addendum B) with information relative to the Occupants and emergency contact persons for their Unit. Failure to file and keep this form updated will result in the Owner being assessed for the expenses associated with accessing the Unit in the event of an emergency. The Manager will make every reasonable effort to contact the Owner or designated contact person if emergency access is necessary. The Unit Occupancy Information Form may be obtained by contacting the Concierge or Manager.

7. Safety and Security 7.1. Safety and security are the responsibility of every Owner, Occupant and invitee. All safety and security problems should be reported immediately to the Manager at 503765-7428. Be sure to practice the following safety and security procedures: a.
If an individual unexpectedly rings your Unit and tells you over the entry system that he/she is there on some business with you, go to the lobby door and check identification before allowing entry. If an individual states they have business with your neighbor, please ask them to contact the Concierge or Manager. Do not open the lobby door from your Unit if you do not know who the individual is or if the individual is not expected. This includes delivery services.
b.
Do not hold a door open for strangers. Residents have their own entry door devices. Guests should contact the Owner they are visiting via the entry system or the Concierge for assistance. The Association understands no one likes to be rude; please kindly let strangers know this is a secure building and you are helping to protect your neighbors.
c.
If a stranger tries to enter the building behind you, ask him/her to go back out and use their entry door device or the entry system. If he/she refuses, contact the Manager with a description of the person.
d.
To prevent a potential security breach, exterior doors must be actively monitored at all times when open for moves and deliveries. They shall not be propped open for any purpose for any length of time, including moves and deliveries, without someone attending to the door. If you come across a propped open door, close it and report it to the Manager or Concierge Desk.
e.
Occupants living on the first floor shall not leave Unit or patio doors open or unlocked when no one is in the Unit or on the patio. Open or unlocked doors on the ground floor can provide access to the entire building for an intruder.
f.
Owners shall ensure their storage lockers are locked when not in use, even if the locker is empty, and that all personal items are contained within their storage locker. No personal items may be placed anywhere in the common areas adjacent to or above the storage locker.
7.2. Parking Garage Safety and Security a.
Use caution when entering, exiting and driving in the parking garage. Avoid unsafe and reckless driving. Maximum speed in the garage is 5 miles per hour.
b.
Use the side mirrors to ensure the sidewalk and street are clear of vehicles and pedestrians before exiting the garage.
c.
Watch the garage gate close when you are entering and exiting to ensure no one gains access to the garage while the gate is closing. Use the mirrors.
d.
Take your keys and garage openers with you when leaving your vehicle. Leave no valuables in sight.

obtain the written approval of the Board before commencing construction. Owners who fail to obtain approval may be required at their own expense to reinstall soundproofing that meets the original specifications. 10. Lease of Residential Units 10.1.

Without the prior written consent of the Board, no more than five persons may live in a Residential Unit or Live/Work Unit on a permanent basis. (Bylaws Section 7.2) 10.2. No parking space may be leased to any person who does not own or lease a Residential Unit or Live/Work Unit. 10.3. Each Owner electing to lease his or her Residential Unit (excluding the Live/Work Unit) shall submit a copy of the proposed lease agreement to the Manager for review a minimum of 30 days prior the start of the rental period. The Manager will review the proposed lease agreement for the sole purpose of determining whether such lease would result in the number of non-Owner occupied Residential Units exceeding 30% of the total Residential Units. In such case, the Manager shall notify the Owner that he or she is prohibited from entering into such agreement until such time as such lease would not result in more than 30% of the Residential Units being non-Owner occupied.

It is expected that the initially assigned gate opener devices will be passed to each successive Owner upon re-sale of the Unit. The Concierge is authorized to issue additional gate opener devices only to the Owner of a Unit (or Lessee of a Unit if so authorized by the Owner in writing). These additional gate opener devices may be purchased by a Unit Owner or authorized Lessee for the then current cost of the gate opener device plus a $30 deposit per device. The deposit will be refunded to the purchaser of the device (Owner or Lessee) upon return of the device. All gate opener devices will be numbered and registered with the Concierge.

Sign and Indemnity and Hold Harmless Agreement (IHHA) indicating the Owner assumes all responsibility and liability for damages caused by the improvements, either during construction or in the future, as well as any maintenance or repairs. This IHHA will be recorded with Multnomah County so it will pass from Owner to Owner if the Unit is sold. 2. Obtain Building or Trade Permits from the City of Portland prior to starting construction. All permits must be provided to Management as part of the remodel improvement submission. 3. Provide Management with a Certificate of Insurance for each contractor working in the Unit, naming the Strand Condominiums as additional insured. The Certificate Holder Section should read: The Strand Condominiums c/o KIN Living PO Box 15127 Portland, OR 97293 4. Provide Management with a copy of the construction schedule with starting dates and contractor work hours. Please remember work is not allowed on Sundays or Holidays. 5.

THE STRAND CONDOMINIUMS BIKE POLICIES Bike rack assignments are for the exclusive use of residents of The Strand for her/his own personal bike(s). Bike must be in operational condition, owned by the resident, and registered through the Strand Concierge. A single resident may be assigned a maximum of one bike rack. A resident may list more than one registered personal bike for alternative use for the assigned rack. A numbered sticker will be issued for each registered bike and must be placed on a visible location of the bike. Bikes not exhibiting a sticker will be removed from any common area. Rack assignments are not open for transfer or subletting. If the resident has allowed another resident or sublet use the rack, the bike shall be removed, the rack assignment revoked, and the rack will be available for re-assignment. Depending upon availability, bike assignments may be made to: One of the five secured areas, which are reserved for resident owners only: • River Room (SE corner of owners’ garage) • East Room (adjacent to East garage lobby) • West Room (across from West garage lobby) • North Room (across from North garage lobby) • Street Room (adjacent to North main lobby, there is a $5.00/month fee to be paid annually) Or in the directly accessible common area spaces throughout the residential garage Adjacent to each tower lobby, there are bike racks for use by Strand residents and their guests. These racks are meant for temporary short-term use unless otherwise approved. The resident’s bike must be registered and have a sticker displayed. Additional information is below. Other than the Street Room there are no owner fees. However, if a key to one of the secure rooms is lost this would necessitate re-keying the room so as not to compromise the stored bikes. The owner will be charged $250.00 for the re-keying of the room. Registration and Assignment There are a limited number of bike racks available to the residents of the Strand which has created a perpetual wait list. New rack assignments will be made from the wait list when there is an opening with the following priorities: • Date of application • Resident owner, first bike per unit • Resident owner, second bike per unit Registration and assignment shall be through the concierge who does the following: • Distributes and accepts “Bike Rack Applications” • Notifies residents of bike rack assignments • Registers bikes and distributes stickers • Distributes bike room keys when rack assignments are made • Collects bike room keys when rack assignments are relinquished • Tracks all bike rack assignments and distributed keys • Notifies residents of improper use of bike racks (no registration sticker, wrong bike in rack, improper alignment of bike in rack, prolonged non use of rack) • Coordinate with the resident owner bike liaison • Maintains registries of registered bikes and bike assignments The resident owner bike liaison does the following:
35
• • • •
Maintains wait lists created from new “Bike Rack Applications” and from request to change rack assignments Makes rack assignments Performs periodic audits of bike rack usage (approximately three month intervals) Makes recommendations to the Operations Committee with respect to bike rack capacity and Rules and Regulations
Vacant Assigned Bike Rack If an assigned bike rack is vacant for six continuous months, the assignment may be forfeited and reassigned, if the space is needed. The resident will be reminded of the vacant rack space and there is a new request for the space. The resident will have the option of releasing the space or placing her/his registered bike in the space within 30 days. If there is no response from the resident after 30 days, the space will be re-assigned if needed. If the space is in the Street Room, the prior occupant will be given a pro-rated rebate. Also, for an assigned bike rack located in one of the secured bike rooms that is released, it is expected that the resident will return their key in a timely manner. If they fail to do so or do not respond after 30 days, they will be subject to the fine structure as established by the Board of Directors. Exterior Strand Bike Racks The exterior bike racks on the Strand property are intended for the short-term use by Strand residents and their guests under the above guidelines. Resident bikes must be registered and have a sticker displayed. After two (2) days, any unauthorized bike lacking a Strand sticker stored on an exterior rack will be tagged for removal. The tag will be dated and state the bike is located at a private rack and will be removed on M/D/Y, which will be two days after the date of tagging. The tag will be left in place of the removed bike stating it was removed from private property and information given how the bike may be retrieved with the next two (2) weeks. After a minimum of two weeks, the bike will be donated.
