Touring a apartment complex for possible acquisition where as you can see having fun is strictly prohibited. We will change that if we buy it!

Guest Insider Sorry but I saw first hand the neglectful parenting where children ran amuck all over the parking areas; and we ALL know that residents rarely follow the posted speed limits. If you buy it and there’s a nice area of green space, promote that area for ball playing, frisbee or other outdoor fun, but do not remove the other items because children shouldn’t be on sidewalks nor parking lots with uncontrolled and potentially dangerous wheel/speed activities.

Kathi Marie Same!! it’s a constant one of our properties. Parents don’t seem to care what their kids are doing or their safety. I’m constantly telling them to get out of the parking lots last week. I was at a property and there was a toddler on a three wheeler, just riding her bike across and threw the parking lot.

Jessica Siderius Looks like a CA property. Those things = liability which turns into lawsuits here.

Jeff McDonald Is it a 55+ community? We’re the only generation who knows how to do all these 🤪

Guest Insider At 1st glance, it may seem like a “no fun zone,” but before judging a property so harshly… perhaps consider the purpose behind such a sign. I promise you that 9 out of 10 managers, on the surface, really don’t care if people do those things… however, negligence of residents can easily lead to a damages, disturbances, and/or a lawsuit for the owners. There is always a story behind every policy. You’d probably think the same about my property! When it comes to our pools… we allow (1) guest per household, no parties, no food, and no drinks (outside of water), and we close promptly at 7PM. Strictly enforced. Maybe I’m Ms. No Fun Zone, but when you come back from long a weekend to find pizza and dumped soda in the pool, broken pool furniture, and all your brand new pool loungers inside the pool… yeah, harsh policies get put in place. So, just remember, for every eye roll for an unreasonable rule, there’s a much more interesting story behind it!

Robin Leasing It looks to me like that's meant for the parking lot in which case I agree with those rules.

Guest Insider Take it down and you’ll find out why it was put up in the first place

Guest Insider As you should but put at your own risk. It’s weird though because if your an employee went you would know these are general insurance requirements for liability coverage on the property. Best thing to do is dedicate and area for this stuff and make it part of the amenities. I have yet to see a property do something like a little skate park or paved trails for this and it would be kool to see…

Guest Insider We don't allow any of that in our parking lots either.

Mark Tanguay I hope the residents get a picture of this sign, and another picture of the sign removed, cuz that's all the evidence they would need when their windshield get broken, vehicles get damaged, or a kid gets hit by a car. We don't need the sign though, because it's all in the lease.

Guest Insider Wonder if kids were being or almost being hit by cars right there, possible blind spot for drivers and it was a liability risk to the property to not have signage to prevent it? Good time to find a spot to add a paved flat amenity away from the parking lot so the kids can do that safely without literally playing in traffic.

Guest Insider This sign is an insurance requirement in some states.
This is not stopping fun but preventing accidents

Guest Insider We had to stop all that too due to safety for people from vehicles hitting them. I think it all really depends on the location and size of the property. I know we had to put up similar signage to cover us for insurance.

Jonathan Weatherford I have one of these at my property. I have always wanted to remove it but also left it because it’s funny.
