Frequently Asked Questions
+ Renovating Your Apartment
It is advisable to check with the Owners Corporation Managers before you renovate your apartment.
BCSP enquiries@bodycorporatestrata.com.au
When your apartment is on top of another, the flooring needs to minimise the noise which can transfer to you neighbour below. Please check before you change your flooring, air conditioning or anything else you think may effect your neighbours.
+ Where are meters located?
The electricity meters for the apartments are located in the basement car parks. There is also a power room and a substation looked after by Citipower located in the big car park under units A, B and C. There are meters behind a locked cage in car park for C block. Please contact BCSP for access to this. Internet connections are made using the MFB located in the garage on the B & C sides. A Block MFB is in the Comms Room which required a key from a committee member.
+ Where can my agent place a sale or lease board?
Lease Boards are not permitted.
Sale boards are only to be placed at either end of Plane Tree Way or in Haines Street but NOT ATTACHED TO TREES, and removed within two weeks of sale by the owner, or will be removed by the OC committee at the Owners expense. Only Size 4ft x 6ft is permitted.
+ Where is visitor parking?
Limited visitor parking can be found in Plane Tree Way. Parking in front of the kindergarten is not permitted on weekdays.
2 hour, 4 hour and all day street parking is usually available around City Gardens. Read the signs carefully for time limits to avoid a fine.
+ What parking is available for residents?
