Requesting long-term guest status:

Members can make a written request to the board of directors to approve someone as a long-term guest in their unit.

Please use the long-term guest request form (in the Photocopy Room and on the website.) Return it to Management so they can make sure that the application is on a Board meeting agenda for approval.

The request must be signed by all co-op members in the household. The proposed guest must sign the request as well.

After approval:

Once approved for long-term guest status by the Board of Directors, the applicant and members of the household must sign this Long-Term Guest agreement with the co-op. It must be witnessed by someone on behalf of the co-op. Please speak to Management.

This legal agreement must be signed by new Long-Term Guest (LTG), all members in the household, and witnessed by Management BUT ONLY AFTER approval as LTG by the Board of Directors.
