SECTION I
(1).0 SMOKING POLICY
(1).1 Smoking is prohibited within 25 feet of the front entrance of the building as well as in any of the building’s common areas, including and without limitation to: the Lobby, hallways, Roof Deck, Courtyards (lower and mid-level), elevators, stairwells, basement, Laundry Room, gym, and garage. Smoking is not permitted on any balconies, patios, or terraces adjoining apartments.
(1).2 "Smoking" which includes Vaping, as it pertains to these rules, means any inhaling, exhaling, burning, vaping, or carrying any lighted conventional cigarette, cigar, or pipe, operating electronic cigarette or vaping device, or other form of lighted object or operating device which contains tobacco, marijuana, or any other material that produces smoke or non-therapeutic aerosol for inhalation.
(1).3 Smoking is permitted inside apartments, but only if the smoke, odor, or vapor attributed thereto does not escape the apartment so as to be perceptible in other apartments, in the hallways, or other common areas.
(1).4 As with all of these House Rules, this policy applies to both the Lessee, and the Lessee is also responsible for all of his or her guests, cohabitants, roommates, family members, and sub- lessees (as well as any of the sublessees’s guests, cohabitants, roommates, and family members). A $2,500 fine will be as- sessed for each violation to the responsible Lessee.
(2).0. NOISE POLICY
(2)1. Subject to the provisions hereof, no Lessee or sublessee shall make or make shall make or permit any disturbing noises in the building, including but not limited to in the building’s outdoor common areas, or do or permit anything to be done therein which will interfere with the rights, comfort or convenience of other Lessees.
(2).2.No Lessee or sublessee shall play upon or suffer to be played upon any musical instrument, or permit to be operated, a Sound Machine (as defined below) if such musical instrument or Sound Machine shall unreasonably disturb other occupants of the building. It is within the Board’s discretion to determine whether the noise at issue is unreasonable.
(2).3 A "Sound Machine" is collectively defined as follows:
Phonograph, radio, television, video tape player, DVD or Blu-Ray player, streaming device, phone, tablet, speaker, audio tape player, CD player, computer, or any other type of audio player; or
Any electronic or mechanical device with or without a loud speaker which is designed to reproduce or amplify sound; or
Any other device or appliance that makes noise, even if making noise is not its primary purpose.
(2).4 The hours listed below are designated as Quiet Hours where noise emanating from apartments should be lower than daytime hours and no playing of musical instruments is allowed:
Monday through Thursday, 9:00 P.M. through 9:00 A.M. the following morning,
Friday 10:00 P.M. through Saturday at noon.
Saturday 10:00 P.M through Sunday at noon.
Sunday 9:00 P.M. until Monday at 9:00 A.M.
Legal Holidays, before noon.
(2).5.Lessees should first try to resolve noise related issues directly with the resident of the apartment where the noise is believed to be emanating from and if the disturbance continues, the Lessee should advise the Board in writing that such Lessee is being disturbed by noise emanating from another apartment. Once the Board is notified, the Board shall attempt to mediate the dispute, if any. If the mediation fails, the complaining Lessee may hire an engineer to measure the alleged noise heard in the complaining Lessee's apartment. Costs of the engineer shall be at the complaining Lessee's expense, except if the Board, in its sole discretion, elects to reimburse the complaining Lessee. Re- imbursement of such fees is contingent upon the Board's de- termination of the following factors, in addition to such other fac- tors as the Board may deem relevant:
that these House Rules have been violated;
that mediation has failed; and
further legal action is necessary to resolve the dispute.
The Board may then take such legal action, which, in its sole opinion, it deems most appropriate.
(2).6. No construction or repair work or other installation in- volving noise shall be conducted in any apartment except on weekdays (not including legal holidays) and only between the hours of 9:00 A.M. and 5:00 P.M., except if specifically authorized in advance in writing by the Board.

When a lessee or sublessee will not be present at the time a guest arrives. This is relevant when the lessee or sub- lessee may be at work or away from the building for a very short time. The lessee, sublessee, or other authorized resi- dent must be occupying the apartment on a full-time basis (including overnight) when guests are staying in the apart- ment.
When a domestic employee, or other visitor, requires ac- cess to the apartment in the lessee, sublessee, or other authorized resident’s absence. Permitting such access to employees is at the Shareholder’s or legal resident’s risk. The names of such regular or ongoing domestic employ- ees or visitors need only be submitted once, so long as you indicate on the form that it is for a continuous/ongoing period of time.
Even with the submission of this form, lessees, sublessees, or other authorized residents must accompany guests when using any building amenity, including but not limited to the Roof Deck, Courtyard, and gym.
(6).6 The Apartment Access Authorization Guest Form must be submitted to the managing agent, Maxwell-Kates, at least five days prior to the arrival of guests.
