Camden Apartments Addendum
1. Camden Apartments has upgraded many features in the complex to make it a more comfortable place to live. Please be patient as we may continue to make small changes throughout the interior of the complex. We hope that you enjoy our complex, and treat it as your own home. If you happen to spill something on the couches or carpet, please do not hesitate to let us know. We have special cleaning supplies that can get the stain out before it is permanently set in.
2. Office Hours: 10:00am-5:00pm Monday-Friday. These are the hours that the on-site managers take care of any business, including phone calls, making payments, questions, etc.
3. Curfew & Clean checks: Curfew is 1:00 am on Fridays and 12:00 am Saturday through Thursday. There should always be at least three people in an apartment being visited by a member of the opposite sex. If there are male visitors in the apartments the blinds need to be open. Visiting hours for the opposite sex extend from 12 noon until curfew (includes family members, fathers, brothers, cousins). Guys are not allowed past the door leading to the hallway. The on-site Resident Assistants will conduct clean checks each week. After three failed clean checks, the apartment will be charged a cleaning fee listed below. Clean checks ensure the cleanliness & peace that each of our tenants deserve. Quiet hours are from 10pm-8am everyday and all day on Sunday.
4. Apartment Facilities: You may reserve the lounge on the white board located in the lounge. The lounge is free for our residents to use as long as the responsibility is taken to clean up after each use, as well as respecting the furniture & appliances provided. Only those individuals who live at Camden are permitted to use these facilities, although friends and visitors can join you in your activities.
5. Parking: We have parking for our residents next to each building of our complex. One free parking sticker will be handed out to those tenants that have a vehicle. Do not park on the yellow marked area and in the manager’s spaces. A towing company will tow you if you are in those reserved spaces. If booting becomes necessary, understand that booting is between the booting company and the owner of the vehicle. Managers, nor owners are not in any way responsible if you or a visitor gets towed or booted. Do not park your bikes on the side walks or on the grass. They will be moved by the maintenance crew, (whether locked or not) in order to keep up the lawn and walkways.
6. Internet: Internet service comes as a free amenity in the complex. Because having a reliable internet service is one of our priorities, we upgraded to a better service. There are rare occasions where an outage might occur, so please be patient as we will do everything in our reach to fix the problem. We realize the importance of internet use for students, but please remember that we are responsible for providing the internet service, not individual computer service. If you are having problems getting online from your computer, you will need to call a computer technician and not depend on the managers or complex for this. Each bedroom has an ethernet hookup. You can purchase ethernet cords from the office for $15.00. (We do not rent them out.) The cords sold in the office are extra long, so you can wire it around the room, if needed, depending on where you decide to put your computer. Do not string a cord across your bedroom floor, as people tend to trip over them, causing the wall jacks to break from the cord being pulled. Individual wireless routers are not permitted. There is a $50 fee, plus any extra maintenance fees, that will be billed to the individual using one.
7. Repairs: Maintenance requests are now taken online electronically. Go to www.camdenapts.com on the Resident Portal submit a request. Only contact the managers regarding maintenance if it is an emergency. Our maintenance crew will take care of the problem as soon as possible, according to the severity of the issue.
8. Charges & Tenant Responsibilities: It is the responsibility of each apartment to replace any burnt out light bulbs. Anything in the apartment that breaks due to misuse will be billed to the tenants. This includes broken light fixtures, broken furniture, holes in walls, etc. Please do not move ANY furniture out of the apartments, even temporarily. Burning candles is NOT allowed. Candle warmers are okay if there is somebody supervising. Please do not pin anything to the ceiling. Do not flush feminine hygiene products, paper towels, q-tips, excessive toilet paper, etc. down the toilets. Do not use sharp objects to defrost the refrigerator. Simply set a bowl of hot water in the freezer, and wait 30 minutes. The ice will fall off on its own. Do not put any garbage on the walkways or outside your door. If the dumpster is full, put the bags behind the dumpster. There is a $20 charge for placing garbage infront of the dumpsters. (The City will not pick it up.)
9. Payments: The deposit and first payment are due with a signed contract. Each payment thereafter is due on the first of each following month. Overdue payments are subject to a $3 late fee per day and must be paid with your rent. There will be a $25 fee on all bank returned checks.
10. Check Out: Check-out procedures are to be properly completed in order to receive a full deposit refund, whether or not you are staying for the following semester. Each roommate must sign up for a job and participate in cleaning. If a tenant does not participate their deposit will be withheld. Keys are to be returned in an envelop with your Check-out Form. (Forms are provided by the managers). White Glove Inspections will not be held until after the last day of the contract. Each resident is to be checked out of their apartments by 5:00 p.m. on the last day of the contract.

We expect each girl to be respectful to room mates and other residents as others may be resting or studying. It is their responsibility to let the managers know of any violations going on that they are aware of. ie.animals in the apartments, violations to the honor code, misuse of furniture. etc. Tenants are also liable for the actions of any visitors while visitng our complex.
