Community Upkeep

We would like to send a friendly reminder to all residents regarding community rules and expectations for maintaining the appearance and safety of our complex.

Recently, we have received multiple reports of items being left in common areas and on exterior portions of the buildings. To help keep our community clean, safe, and in compliance with HOA regulations, please review the following guidelines:

• Garage spaces are to be used for vehicle parking only and should not be used for general storage.

• Bicycles should not be left in common areas, walkways, or throughout the complex.

• Toys, strollers, bikes, and personal belongings may not be stored on staircases, landings, or near parking areas.

• Balconies and patios should not contain excessive storage or items that create a cluttered appearance.

• Plants, décor, or any objects may not be hung from railings, landings, or exterior building structures.

• Exterior lighting, including colored lights or string lights, is not permitted on the outside of units unless specifically approved by the HOA.

These rules are in place to maintain the safety, appearance, and property value of our community for all residents. We kindly ask everyone to review their area and make any necessary adjustments as soon as possible. We appreciate your cooperation and your help in keeping Las Brisas a clean and welcoming place to live.

Thank you!

Hot Water Concerns in Unit

We understand that there have been ongoing concerns regarding the community boiler system and the availability of hot water in many units. We take such matters very seriously and have taken multiple steps to address these concerns.

Upon conducting several inspections and tests, it has been confirmed that the boilers are heating properly and to the correct temperature. To further address the situation, the Association engaged the services of the boiler company and a licensed plumber with comprehensive knowledge about the heating system to inspect multiple units throughout the community.

Through these inspections, it has been determined that there is a cross-connection issue within the individual units. This is a technical concern that could affect the entire building and/or neighboring units. We are currently working on a plan to address this issue promptly and efficiently. It is requested that each unit inspect its shower valve, single-handle faucets, heaters, and washing machine connections to determine if they are working properly.

  • If your heater valve is off or the recirculation pump is disconnected, this could create hot water issues and prevent hot water from flowing properly to other units.
  • Shower valves need to be replaced from time to time. A bad shower valve can cause cold water to get into the hot water line; the same is true with single-handle faucets.

A cross-connection issue can only occur in a unit and not in the common area pipes. Please consider hiring a plumber with experience in this area.

Thank you,

Las Brisas

Hot Water Issues in Unit

We would like to inform you that a hot water issue has been identified in multiple buildings within our community. Preliminary assessments suggest that a cross-connection issue may be the cause, which allows cold water to enter the hot water line. We are asking homeowners to check their individual shower valves, single-handle faucets, and heater valves to make sure they are in working order.
