Living in The Glen • Tips & Glen Etiquette

Tips

How to contact a Board Member or Committee Member with a problem or request:

Call 642-2441 and leave a message
Drop a note in the Board mailbox located across from unit #100 (labeled 1 Glen Lake Drive)
Send us an e-mail by using our website (http://theglenofpg.com). See "Contacts" below the pictures or go to: ‘Board Members’ on the left margin.

Stamped outgoing letters may be mailed by using the upper left mail slot at any of the four mail kiosks.

To open the front gate for your guests, they must phone you on the front gate phone. Then push 9 on your land-based telephone (a cell phone won't work).

Replacement or additional entrance gate remote control devices can be purchased from any good garage door company. Two companies that have installed doors for The Glen are Best Doors 663-1954 and USA Door Service 625-8601. They can also repair or replace your garage doors. Any new metal garage door must be ‘almond,’ not off white.

The gardeners work for the Association, not for individual owners. If you have gardening suggestions or desires, drop a note in The Glen mail box, 1 Glen Lake Drive, located across from unit #100. Please include your name, unit #, and phone #. A member of the Gardening Committee will get back to you. Tree trimming and removal is not to be done by residents. Any requests for tree trimming should also be left in The Glen mailbox.

Garbage day at The Glen is Wednesday. Trash and recycling containers can be set out the Tuesday night before but are to be brought in before Thursday. Do not mix recyclables with non-recyclables. The gardeners have bins for organic materials only. The bins behind the garages are available for residents to use for their garden refuse only. 

Keys for the pedestrian gates are available from Betty Lauritsen (#30) or Lynn Bomberger (#92). There will be a fee for replacement keys.

The area behind the detached garages is not to be used for storage of resident items. Items left behind garages will be taken to the dump.

Injured or dead deer or other wildlife can be reported to the SPCA Wildlife Division 373-2631 ext. 227 and the SPCA Emergency 646-5534.

Pacific Grove Police Department dispatch phone number is 647-7900.

The Pacific Grove Hometown Bulletin http://www.pacificgrovehometownbulletin.com has local information.

Glen Etiquette

  • If you live in a two story unit that adjoins a single story, please realize that the single story master bedroom wall shares your garage wall. Refrain from washing clothes, repairing items in your garage, etc. during early or late hours.
  • Please keep your outdoor visiting to a low level since several of our residents work the night shift. Many bedroom windows are on the street. Be considerate of your sleeping neighbor.
  • When disposing of Styrofoam packing peanuts, be sure to pour them into a plastic garbage bag that can be tied shut. If you simply pour the peanuts into your garbage can without sealing it, you and your neighbors will likely have Styrofoam peanuts all along the street when your can is picked up by the garbage company. Peanuts can make quite a mess and they don’t break down into the earth.
  • Even though it is a Glen rule and a Pacific Grove ordinance, some people still do not pick-up after their dogs. Not only is it unsightly but it is also unhealthy to leave dog feces on the ground. Children have had unpleasant encounters with dog droppings and the gardeners mow over the feces which then spreads it to other lawns. All dog owners are to carry and use plastic bags when walking their pets. If you see someone not picking-up after their dog, please notify a board member immediately. Glen residents will be fined $50 and non residents (such as from Glen Heights) will be reported to the City of Pacific Grove.
  • When walking your dog, it must be on a leash (held by you) no longer than six feet.
  • If your cars do not fit in your garage, you are to park them outside the gate. Inside the gate is for the use of The Glen guests.
  • Garage doors should be closed when not in use. Please make an effort to keep your garage door closed when you are not using the garage.

Many of the items listed in ‘Rules and Regulations’ also have tips & etiquette for living in The Glen. Please review our Rules and Regulations listed on our website (http://theglenofpg.com). The list is periodically revised.
