PERSONAL VENDORS & GARAGE ACCESS – A FRIENDLY REMINDER

We are happy to help make projects and services in your home go smoothly! To ensure garage access remains safe, secure, and convenient for everyone at Savina, we would like to share a few helpful reminders when arranging access for personal vendors (such as cleaners, contractors, etc.).

Parking Arrangements Are Required

Before your vendor arrives, please make sure they are assigned a parking space. This can be done by allowing them use of your assigned space or reserving a space in advance through Parkade. Please also give us a heads up! You can call, e-mail, or text us with your instructions so that we can expeditiously assist your vendor.

Front Desk Check‑In

Your vendor must call or check in with the Front Desk in advance before accessing the garage if we are providing them access. Idling in the garage can cause traffic backups onto the street, and delay access for commercial tenants, residents, or Savina staff.

Please No Tailgating

For everyone’s safety and security, vendors may not wait for another vehicle to exit and then tailgate into the garage. This bypasses the security measures in place and defeats the purpose of controlled access at Savina.

Speed and Lights

All drivers must maintain safe and proper speeds and observe a maximum speed of 5 miles per hour while driving in the Parking Garage. There may be blind spots present. It is recommended that headlights be turned on while driving in the parking garage for improved visibility and safety.

SOCIAL LOUNGE CLOSURE & MAINTENANCE NOTICE (APRIL 30TH–MAY 1ST)

We would like to inform all residents that IRX will be performing touch-up work on all wood surfaces in the social lounge on April 30 and May 1. As a result, the lounge will be unavailable for use on both days. Please also be advised that there will be a strong lacquer odor in and around the area during this time. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we complete these improvements.

PANDA FESTIVAL COMING TO SAN DIEGO THIS WEEKEND

Panda Fest is making its first-ever stop in San Diego at Waterfront Park this weekend, April 25–26! Please note that increased foot and vehicle traffic is expected during the event.

It is known as one of the largest Asian food festivals in the U.S.! Guests can explore 300+ Asian street food options, shop unique handcrafted goods, and enjoy live entertainment throughout the event. As a fun bonus, tickets include a custom panda pin and headband, making the experience even more memorable.

REQUEST FOR RESIDENT INSPECTION: BALCONY CONDITION CHECK

The Association’s construction experts have identified a potential issue with missing or unsupported fasteners on some balcony glass railings.

Residents are encouraged to inspect their balconies and, if any fasteners appear missing or loose, please email our General Manager, Alma Galindo at Agalindo@actionlife.com to report the needed repair and Alma will assist with scheduling your unit’s repairs with Barrier Glazing.

As a precaution, we also advise residents to avoid leaning on the balcony glass while further evaluations are underway.

PROPER USE OF P1 ELECTRONICS RECYCLING BIN

Please be reminded that the P1 electronics bin is designated specifically for the disposal of electronic waste only. It is not intended for regular household trash or general waste items.

Improper use of this bin can lead to contamination and may result in additional handling costs or service disruptions. We kindly ask all residents to dispose of their items responsibly and use the appropriate waste receptacles for non-electronic materials.

EXCITING UPGRADE COMING TO THE POOL/SPA DECK!

We are excited to let everyone know that a new fire pit will soon be installed on the pool/spa deck, replacing the current one that is cracked and worn. This upgrade will make the space more comfortable and enjoyable for relaxing or spending time with neighbors, friends, or family.

We look forward to everyone being able to gather around and enjoy the new setup once it is complete.

BALCONY SAFETY COMPLIANCE NOTICE

To keep your community safe, attractive, and enjoyable for everyone, please review these important guidelines for balconies, decks, and common areas:

Balcony & Deck Cleaning

Clean carefully and ensure that no water, dirt, or debris is allowed to spill or flow over balcony or deck edges. This includes water from mopping, hoses, or plant maintenance. Any runoff into neighboring units or common areas is strictly prohibited. Violations are not acceptable and will result in fines

No Tossing Items
Do not throw or drop anything from balconies or decks, including cigarettes. Even small items can cause serious damage and create serious safety hazards. A prior incident involving a cigarette landing on a balcony cushion resulted in a major fire. This is a serious violation and will result in fines.

Smoking
Smoking is permitted inside your unit or on your exclusive balcony/deck; however, residents are required to take all necessary steps to prevent smoke from impacting neighboring homes (including the use of air purifiers or smokeless alternatives where applicable). Failure to control smoke impact and repeated complaints will result in fines.

SWING INTO SPRING AT OUR BRUNCH CELEBRATION- SOCIAL LOUNGE

Just a friendly reminder about our “Swing into Spring Brunch” happening this Sunday, April 19th, from 10:30 am to 12:30 pm in the Social Lounge. Join us for light bites, refreshing mimosas, and great company as we celebrate the start of the season together. Each unit may bring up to two adults, and families are welcome to include their young children. We look forward to seeing everyone there and enjoying a wonderful morning of brunch and bubbles!

OUT OF OFFICE NOTICE – JULES, RESIDENT SERVICE COORDINATOR

Jules, our Resident Service Coordinator, is currently out of the office on leave. During her absence, we appreciate your patience and understanding. If you need assistance in the meantime, residents are welcome to reach out to Carlos Mayes, Assistant Manager, at cmayes@actionlife.com. Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to welcoming Jules back and are excited to have her return soon.

KEEPING YOUR TRASH ROOMS CLEAN & PEST-FREE

To help maintain cleanliness and prevent pests in your shared trash rooms, all residents are required to properly contain food and organic waste before disposal. In San Diego, plastic bags, including those labeled “compostable” or “biodegradable”, are not permitted in organics bins and can contaminate the waste stream.

Instead, food scraps should be placed in paper bags, wrapped in newspaper or paper towels, or securely contained before being disposed of. Properly handling organic waste is especially important in our warm climate, as loose food can quickly lead to odors, maggots, and other pests. Taking a moment to dispose of waste correctly helps keep your community clean and comfortable for all.

A $256 million Navy SEAL Museum is proposed for 1220 Pacific Highway, along the San Diego waterfront near the Grande South. The four-story, 85,000-square-foot museum would honor the U.S. Navy’s maritime special operations forces and feature seven galleries, educational spaces, a cafe, retail areas, and an event terrace. At 65 feet tall (roughly six to seven stories) it will be taller than nearby structures like the Lane Field Marriott garage. The developers will present the project at the Port of San Diego Board meeting on April 21. If approved, construction could begin in 2029, with the museum opening in 2031–2032 as a major new attraction on the North Embarcadero.

OUTDOOR FURNITURE AREA CLEANING & MAINTENANCE

The furniture adjacent to the social lounge will be temporarily removed piece by piece for wood staining touch-ups. These efforts are part of our commitment to keeping shared spaces clean, well-maintained, and enjoyable for all residents. We appreciate your patience and cooperation.

A QUICK REMINDER ABOUT PARKING: IT MAKES A DIFFERENCE

Please make sure your vehicle is parked completely within your assigned space and not extending into neighboring spots. When a car sticks out, it can make it harder for others to park and move around safely in the garage. If your vehicle is too large to fit within the lines, you may need to look for a more appropriate parking option within the community.

We are also currently auditing the parking garage to confirm which vehicles are assigned to each space. You may see staff walking through and writing down vehicle information; this is part of that process. We will be reaching out if any updates are needed, but you can also save time by logging into your resident portal and updating your vehicle information there. We appreciate everyone’s cooperation in helping keep the parking area safe, organized, and easy to use for all residents.

HALLWAY SWINGS – CLEANING NOTICE

The cushions from the hallway swings located on the 4^th floor will be temporarily removed for cleaning. The staff will take the cushions the morning of Thursday, April 16^th and will return them by noon on Friday, April 17^th. We appreciate your patience and understanding as we work to keep your community clean and comfortable for all residents.

HOMEOWNERS: YOU’RE INVITED TO SAVINA’S TOWNHALL MEETING ON APRIL 15

We warmly invite all owners to join the Townhall Meeting on Wednesday, April 15, 2026, at 6:00 p.m. in the Social Lounge. You are welcome to attend either in person or via Zoom.

Taking a moment to dispose of waste correctly helps keep your community clean and comfortable for all.

BOOTS IN THE PARK

Boots in the Park will bring large crowds and increased activity to Waterfront Park, and residents should plan for road closures and parking limitations. Streets near the venue may be partially or fully closed before, during, and after the event to accommodate pedestrian traffic and event operations.

Additionally, sound checks are typically conducted in the days leading up to the festival and on the morning of the event, which may result in elevated noise levels for nearby residents and businesses. We recommend planning extra travel time.

While it may be a bit noisy and crowded, the event brings live music, dancing, food, and activities for the whole community to enjoy.

PROPOSED NAVY SEAL MUSEUM AT LANE FIELD

A $256 million Navy SEAL Museum is proposed for 1220 Pacific Highway, along the San Diego waterfront near the Grande South. The four-story, 85,000-square-foot museum would honor the U.S. Navy’s maritime special operations forces and feature seven galleries, educational spaces, a cafe, retail areas, and an event terrace.

GARAGE ELECTRICAL OUTLET USE – IMPORTANT UPDATE

Following discussion at the March 18, 2026, Board Meeting, the Board of Directors has taken action regarding the ongoing use of garage electrical outlets for electric vehicle and battery charging. A recent review identified approximately 38 residents actively using common area and personal 110v outlets, typically through extension cords or personal charging equipment. While the Board understands the convenience this may provide, the current practice raises important concerns that cannot be overlooked.

First, there are significant safety and liability risks. Extension cords used in the garage create potential trip hazards and may expose both individuals and the Association to injury and liability. Additionally, the ongoing use of extension cords for charging purposes does not comply with applicable electrical code requirements. Second, electricity drawn from common area outlets is not individually metered, meaning that this usage is currently subsidized by the community as a whole, which is not an equitable arrangement.

The use of any electrical outlet within the garage is strictly prohibited for any purpose. This applies without exception to common area outlets as well as any outlets installed, modified, or connected by residents, regardless of prior approval, installation method, or perceived ownership. This includes, but is not limited to, electric vehicle charging, battery charging (including trickle charging), and the use of extension cords or personal charging equipment.

The Board remains committed to working with the Safety Committee and Management to explore a long-term solution that is safe, code-compliant, and fair to all residents. If you have any questions, please contact Alma Galindo at 619-255-1204 or via email at agalindo@actionlife.com.

BBQ AREA UPDATE – NEW IPAD AT 4TH FLOOR BBQ TV

We are happy to announce that the iPad at the 4th Floor BBQ area has been replaced and is fully operational.

As a reminder, the iPad allows you to easily manage the entertainment features in the area, including:

• TV Control: Enjoy your favorite shows while grilling or relaxing in the BBQ area.
• Audio Options: Keep the sound localized to the TV area or broadcast it throughout the BBQ space.
• Personal Music: Connect your phone to play your own music in the BBQ or pool area.
• Volume Control: Adjust the sound levels independently for both the BBQ and pool areas.

Thank you for your patience while we worked to restore the system. If you have any questions or experience any issues using the iPad, please don’t hesitate to contact the Front Desk.

PREVENT PROBLEMS BEFORE THEY HAPPEN: YOUR BALCONY CHECKLIST

To keep your community safe, attractive, and enjoyable for everyone, please review these important guidelines for balconies, decks, and common areas:

1. No Tossing Items

Please do not throw anything from balconies or decks, including cigarettes. Even small items can cause serious damage. Several years ago, a cigarette landing on a balcony cushion started a major fire.

2. Smoking

Smoking is allowed inside your unit or on your exclusive balcony/deck, but residents must take steps to minimize smoke impact on neighbors (air purifiers, smokeless devices, etc.).

3. Vegetation & Landscaping

Plants must stay within your balcony or deck boundaries. Potted plants must have a tray underneath to catch water and prevent spillage. Trays should be raised to allow airflow. Plants must not block drains or fall onto balconies below.

4. Barbecue & Lantern Restrictions

Only electric barbecues are allowed. Gas or charcoal grills are prohibited. Only electric lanterns and heat lamps are allowed. Propane or other gas devices are prohibited.

5. Balcony & Deck Cleaning

Clean carefully to avoid water or debris spilling over edges. Residents are responsible for any damage or injury caused by items that fall from balconies or decks. Spillage: Please ensure mops, hoses, or other cleaning activities do not allow water, soil, or other substances to flow beyond your balcony/deck. Using trays or containers can help prevent spills onto neighbors’ areas.

GARAGE SAFETY GUIDELINES: KEEP EVERYONE SAFE & DRIVE SMART!

Maximum Speed

Always maintain a maximum speed of 5 mph. Drive slowly, especially around corners, because blind spots are present.

Headlights On

Always keep your headlights on while driving in the garage. This helps other drivers see you, even during daylight.

Flash Around Corners

When approaching blind corners, briefly flash your headlights. This alerts other drivers and helps prevent collisions.

Guests

Remind any guests using the garage to follow these same safety rules.

Why it matters

Proper speed and visible lights help prevent accidents and keep our community safe.
