Here's What's Been Happening at PHP!
ALL MEMBERS please remember to wear your name badges when you are out and about. It will help avoid awkward situations when you're not sure who you're talking to when we are wearing our masks!

Did You Know?
Each week, we will be including Member questions about our community. If you have a question you would like answered, please send it to Lauren Tash, Director of Lifestyle Services.
This question was referred to Amanda Dumich, our Executive Director. Here is her response.

Q: What options do Members have for secure parking?

A: The parking under our Members’ condos is to be exclusively utilized for our Members' first and second car spaces. We recognize that access to the parking level is also a key security checkpoint for your safety. When parking is used exclusively by Members you should not see an unfamiliar face when accessing your car. 
This question was referred to Amanda Dumich, our Executive Director. Here is her response.

Q: Where are public parking spaces?

A: In terms of public parking, there are approximately 50 street parking spaces in the general vicinity of our community. Anyone is able to use a public parking space. Contractors and service providers do manage to find public parking in the general vicinity of our community.
