Dear Watermark Community,
Hello everyone! Here are your weekly updates:
- Please make sure you are scheduling large-item deliveries with Management. The Rules and Regulations require seven (7) day advanced notice. This makes certain we can pad the elevators, cover the floors, and check for damage before & after your delivery. We understand there are always situations in which this much notice is not possible, so it is essential you are communicating with the General Manager as early as possible in the process.
- The next Board Meeting is this coming Tuesday @ 6pm in the Community Room & via Zoom. Agendas are posted and notice was also emailed. If you’re not receiving these emails please let me know so I can update your profile.
Have a wonderful weekend,
Shannon Zgrzemski, CMCA

Dear Watermark Community,
Hello everyone! Thank you all who made yourselves available or coordinated entry for the sprinkler inspections. Your cooperation made a huge difference in being able to address this mandatory inspection.
Here are your weekly updates:
- BALLOTS!!! Ballots have been mailed and we need you to return yours in order to meet quorum. Please take a moment and participate in this election, even if just to help meet quorum. If you need a new ballot please contact me.
- Some of you may have noticed that when you receive a package notification you get an email, even if you aren’t signed up to get notifications by email. This is something our Development Team is working to fix within the notification system. This will take some time. We wanted you to know this is something we are aware of and are working to fix.
- As mentioned last week, please remember to pick up any items off the floor of the garage and please unload and return the carts to the garage as soon as possible.
Have a wonderful weekend,

Dear Watermark Community,
Hello everyone. We made it through another storm! More rain is heading our way next week so please make sure that your balcony & patio drains are uncovered and clear of debris. Please use caution when walking in the garage, along the walkways, and in the lobbies during the rains.
Here are you weekly updates:
- The first week of drain jetting has been going well & the vendor has been completing each day early! This coming week we have two (2) more days of jetting, Tuesday, February 6th and Thursday, February 8th. Please note if you need to move your vehicles one of those days between 8:30am-3:30pm. You can check the sign-up sheet at the Columbia-side elevators for available parking spaces on your day. Everyone has been so diligent and cooperative and it really makes a difference in completing the work thoroughly to maintain the building’s drain lines, so thank you!
- You should have received an email on February 1st with information about the in-unit fire sprinkler inspections scheduled for Tuesday, February 20th and Wednesday, February 21st and a schedule for each floor. If you did not receive this email, please let me know so I can update your communication profile. PLEASE reach out with any question or special requests. We are working to accommodate special requests as much as we can.
- The HOA’s annual insurance policy has been renewed. Your loan servicer or home insurance agent may request a copy of the updated Certificate of Insurance. This is easily accessible to you on the portal under My Community >> Documents >>Insurance Certificate. You may also request that I send a copy to you directly so you may distribute it as needed.
- The HOA is continuing to seek volunteers for the Welcoming Committee. Please consider joining this committee to provide new owners the guidance and support in making Watermark their home. Please let me know by the next Board Meeting (02/13) if you are interested or have any questions.
