If you are on the board of a condominium or homeowners association, you have likely familiarized yourself with all of the covenants and restrictions so that you can provide accurate, speedy responses to questions or complaints. However, your experience with concrete and asphalt paving may be a bit more limited. The streets, parking lots, trails, and sidewalks maintained by your organization are of sufficient importance that it behooves you to learn more about them.
Why Are HOA and Condo Pavements Important?
Your residents likely have a list of expectations that they consider inalienable rights. These typically include the right to have a safe environment, the right to have their property values preserved, and the right to have reasonable access to well-maintained, attractive common areas. They expect you to help ensure that they receive all of these things, but they also expect you to wisely use the dues and fees that they pay. If pavements are unsafe, unsightly, or inaccessible, residents are likely to complain. They are also likely to be unhappy if pavements require reconstruction due to a lack of preventive maintenance and timely repairs.
What Types of Pavement-Related Services Might HOAs and Condos Require?
In California, your property may feature both asphalt and concrete pavements. For example, you might have an asphalt parking lot, concrete sidewalks, asphalt streets, and concrete curbs. Naturally, the paving material and the pavement’s function will affect the type of services you might need. Here are a few common procedures that are frequently requested by condominiums and HOAs.
• Repairs: Whether the paving material is concrete or asphalt, cracks, potholes, and other types of damage need to be repaired.
• Sealcoating: Sealcoating asphalt pavements can help prevent damage that can shorten the life of the pavement, but sealcoating also makes the pavement more attractive.
• ADA Compliance: Compliant parking spaces, ramps, signs, and other mandatory features can ensure that all residents have an equal opportunity to access your buildings, facilities, and recreational areas.
• Pavement Markings: Centerlines, traffic arrows, lane dividers, and pedestrian crosswalks are a few common road and pavement markings you might need. In parking lots, you may need striping for your parking stalls, crosswalks, directional arrows, no-parking identifiers, and ADA-compliant markings.
• Curbing: Curbs and gutters can help protect your pavements, facilitate drainage, and add aesthetic appeal.
