Exterior Alterations and Additions by Owners

Any alteration or installation is a “Modification to the Common Element”. On the same basis as renovations, with prior written approval of the Board of Directors, residents may make certain modifications and additions to the outside of their unit and exclusive use common elements. For details see the Bethune Condominium Handbook, Article 4 of By-law 12 and the Rules and Regulations.

To request authorization for such alteration, print and fill out Schedule “1”, Acknowledgement Respecting Modification to Common Elements, and return to the Property Manager for board approval.

Many owners want to beautify and individualize their front and back yards, which are exclusive use areas. Whether you would like to landscape around your unit or you only wish to plant a small bed or border of annuals, contact the Property Manager to obtain prior written permission from the Board before you start.
