It is a policy of ERG property Management and a practice which is common among us to encourage neighbors to talk to each other in order to resolve issues or difficulties. However, in some circumstances neighbors either just don’t like to use these mechanisms or the situation call for the need of law enforcement and a higher authority in order to put a stop to them or punish such felonies.
Besides this, you may also file a formal complaint addressed directly to the management and the bylaw/rule Council of Stern Property Management where it will definitely be reviewed and actions taken to resolve it.
