Gate & Parking Information: Any problem with your parking decal, entry card or entry device, please stop by the Office. Please update your sticker to the oval red one so all identification is uniform. 

1) The Gate arm automatically lowers after 21 seconds of its raising.  It is necessary to drive through immediately after the arm raises.  Do not attempt to piggyback through the gate! 
2) If the entry gate freezes or stalls with the arm locked in a closed position, drivers should not repeatedly click their entry devices.  Wait 30 seconds before clicking your entry device again so the gate can close and reset itself. 
3) The Board of Directors is looking into solutions to prevent damage to our gate, and make entry into OSC #1 easy, and efficient.  The orange cones will be removed once a viable solution is reached. 
4) Anyone who causes damage to the gate will be reponsible for the following costs associated with repair of the GATE ARM = $50 first offense; each subsequent offense will have an increment of $25 added within a calendar year; replacement of the GATE ARM = $400.

Any vehicle without the proper parking decal is subject to towing.  Be sure to place your decal outside on the driver's side (left) rear window of your vehicle.  Should your sticker need replacement go to the office.  Visitors or Guests: Stop by the office and pick up a Guest Pass for their vehicle.  Guests and Visitors must park in an Official Guest Parking Spot.  (If the Office is closed, place a note on the dashboard with your building and apartment number.)

Recycling - There are two types of recycling bins: Comingled and Newspaper.  In the Comingled Recycling Bin, include: Aluminum and steel cans, brown, green, and clear glass containers (discard broken glass elsewhere); milk/juice cartons and drink boxes; plastic containers numbered #1, and #2.  You will find a triangular symbol on the bottom of the plastic containers.  Any number other than 1, or 2 in the triangle should be thrown away with your other trash in the dumpster.

In the Newspaper Recycling Bin, include brown paper bags, mixed paper (such as newspapers, inserts, magazines, old telephone books, catalogs, cereal boxes, tissue boxes, shoe boxes, junk mail, and office paper).  Permissable boxes need to be folded flat.  NO CORRUGATED BOXES!

Remember to remove all plastic bags from recyclables.  To keep contaminants out, rinse the containers first.  Please do not place items soiled with food, wax liners from cereal boxes, wax paper, self-adhesive labels, wet paper, carbon paper, or corrugated cardboard boxes in the recycling bins.

If you are uncertain about whether or not an item is acceptable for recycling, more information can be obtained from Broward Waste and Recycling Services by calling: 954-765-4999.  Recycling is optional, but for those who care about our environment, it is a necessity.  Again, no contaminants!  Walk the extra yard, and discard your other trash in the dumpster, properly bagged.  Thank you for your cooperation in making Oakland Shores a "green" community.
