Jardine Policy Overview

Detectors may not be removed or covered with any type of wrap. Working batteries are to be left in the detector at all times. Tampering with fire-safety equipment or falsely setting off a fire alarm is a violation of the law and published university and housing rules. Smoke detectors are equipped with either a warning seal or electronic monitoring device. This is to discourage residents from tampering with them. If the smoke detector is tampered with or seals are removed or broken, a charge will be assessed to the resident(s) of the apartment.

Fire safety in on-campus housing is a very serious matter. Residents are expected to learn the fire safety policies and guidelines. In the event of a fire, it’s important to know about nearby fire safety equipment. When the fire alarm sounds, occupants are expected to evacuate the building using the stairs, not the elevators, and to comply with staff instructions.

In accordance with direction from the fire marshal and housing facilities management staff, periodic fire drills will be conducted. The primary reason for conducting fire drills is to practice a response for a real fire situation. For this reason specific dates and times will not be announced to residents. The drills will also provide an opportunity to educate residents about the procedures to follow in the event of an emergency that requires evacuation. Anytime the fire alarm goes off within an apartment, residents are required to evacuate the building immediately.

Fire extinguishers are mounted in each apartment. Residents must be familiar with the location of the fire extinguisher and how to use it. Residents must immediately report a fire by calling the Manhattan Fire Department at the emergency number 911. The fire should also be reported to the Housing and Dining Services Facilities Management office at (785) 532‑6466 and the Jardine on-call staff at 785-564-2409. Residents should try to put out the fire, if possible with the available fire extinguisher, taking into account personal safety. Each resident is responsible for maintaining their fire extinguisher and should check it each month. The dial on a charged extinguisher will point straight up and be within the charged zone. If an extinguisher needs to be recharged, the Housing and Dining Services Facilities Management office can recharge extinguishers for a fee in the event of a nonfire related event. All apartments with battery operated smoke detectors are checked each month for low batteries and maintained by facilities management staff. Smoke detectors in modern and renovated apartments are hardwired and initiate the fire system automatically. At time of checkout, there is a fee assessed for missing or discharged fire extinguishers, as well as missing or damaged smoke detectors. More information about this policy is located under the Indoor Health, Safety and Aesthetic Standards Policy portion of the handbook.

Indoor Health, Safety and Aesthetic Standards

Extended Absence/Vacation Policy

In order to ensure the safety and upkeep of the facility, Housing and Dining Services requires residents notify the Jardine Apartments office when leaving your apartment for more than 5 days. Staff may conduct periodic inspections to verify the condition of the facility while you are away from your apartment.

Residents may provide the notification by completing this form.

Indoor Aesthetic Standards

Housing and Dining Services staff conduct indoor aesthetics checks for all apartments. When an apartment is checked and concerns are found, a notification email via Maxient is sent indicating the date of inspection and concerns noted. Below is the typical process for follow-up:

1. No access due to deadbolt or chain:
   • First occurrence: reminder of policy, new inspection by Jardine staff
   • Second occurrence: warning, new inspection by Jardine staff, $50 charge for staff labor
   • Third occurrence: Probation, new inspection by Jardine staff, $50 charge for staff labor
   • Fourth occurrence: new inspection by Jardine staff, housing contract meeting, termination at end of agreement period.
2. General Indoor Aesthetics & Safety

• First occurrence: reminder of policy, visit to apartment with resident present by Jardine a/cc staff, follow-up inspection by Jardine a/cc within 7 days (1 week of Jardine a/cc inspection).
• Second occurrence: warning, visit to apartment with resident present by Jardine a/cc staff, specific cleaning instructions provided or cleaning class, follow-up inspection by Jardine a/cc within 7 days (1 week of Jardine a/cc inspection), $50 charge for staff labor.

Pest Prevention Requirements

1. Aluminum foil, plastic wrap, contact paper, wallpaper, newspaper, etc., shall not be used to cover kitchen cabinets, stove or walls in the apartments. In addition, paper and loose plastic bags should not be stored as they provide a hiding place for insects and create a fire hazard. Only nonadhesive shelf paper is allowed on kitchen shelves.
2. Raw meat should not be stored outside of the freezer/refrigerator. If exposed to the elements, meat attracts insects and poses a health hazard for residents.
3. Food items should not be evident on the tile/carpet. Failure to keep food items in sealed containers attracts insects to the apartments.
4. Dishes and food storage containers should not be left for an extended period of time without cleaning with soap and water. Washing is necessary to avoid attracting insects.

Carpeting should not extend into the kitchen area. Placement of carpet under the refrigerator and by the stove creates a harboring place for insects and potential fire hazard. Indoor carpeting should be cut to fit the floor area, providing a 6-inch space between the carpet and the wall. Rolled carpet provides a hiding place for insects.

Excessive clutter is not tolerated. Personal property should be organized and general housekeeping performed to ensure the safety of occupants. Trash should be removed to the dumpster. Flooring should be vacuumed/swept thoroughly to remove excessive debris.

Housing and Dining Services staff conduct indoor aesthetics checks for all apartments. When an apartment is checked, a notification email is sent indicating the date of inspection and concerns noted. Below is a breakdown of the fines imposed for violations.

1. The first violation results in a written warning.
2. The second violation results in housing probation, a cleaning class and a charge for the inspection.
3. The third violation results in a charge assessed with the inspection and eviction at the end of the semester.

This violation is documented for any rental history inquiry submitted to the Jardine office. If residents wish to contest the evaluation of their apartment, directions will be provided in the notification letter.

Kitchen and Room Responsibilities

Each resident is responsible for the proper care and cleaning of their individual bedroom including the guidelines for break and holiday periods and check outs. Individual residents will pay for any charges assessed for damages in their rooms, as determined by the staff member completing the final inspection of the space.

All residents are responsible for cleaning the stoves, ovens, sinks, counters, microwaves, and removing all trash from the kitchen after use.

After reasonable notice, Housing and Dining Services staff may dispose of abandoned property in the apartment. Each resident is responsible for properly disposing of garbage and boxes, including taking cardboard boxes to the proper outside receptacle.

Laundry Facilities

Residents are expected to leave the laundry facilities in clean condition. Empty soap boxes, tissues, newspapers, dryer lint, etc., should be discarded in trash receptacles. When washing or drying cycles are complete, residents should promptly remove their clothes from the machines in order to offer greater availability to other residents and prevent theft. Housing and Dining Services is not responsible for stolen items.

Noise Levels — Quiet Hours

Residents shall not make or permit noise which may substantially interfere with other residents’ use and enjoyment of the property. Critical to this are the academic interests and close quarters of the community.

Simple behaviors can help reduce unnecessary noise. Residents should take off boots or heavy shoes when in the apartment; and keep the volume on the stereo, TV or radio at a reasonable level. The placement of rugs on the floor can also significantly reduce the amount of noise between apartments.

It is important to also realize people make a certain amount of noise under normal circumstances. Residents should be aware of and tolerant of individual differences in lifestyles and routines.

The best way of dealing with noise problems is for residents to get to know their neighbors before a problem starts. Then, if a noise problem develops, it is easier to address the issue with their neighbor.

Residents must respect the rights of others in regard to noise level and abide by the Jardine Apartments quiet hours policy:

Sunday through Thursday: 10 p.m.–7 a.m.

Friday through Saturday: 11 p.m.–7 a.m.

Courtesy hours are in effect 24 hours a day, seven days a week. If a resident requests a neighbor be quiet, the neighbor should be respectful of their request.

Most noise problems can be avoided early on by residents communicating with one another. They should get to know their neighbors before a problem starts. Then if a problem develops, it’s easier to address.

Should a problem with a neighbor persist, a resident may contact their neighborhood staff or staff on duty at the time of the incident. Disturbance of the peace issues may require police involvement as well. The complaint will be filed by the Jardine staff if the noise problem cannot be worked out. Each complaint is reviewed and addressed accordingly.

Outdoor Activities Prohibited Indoors

Outdoor activities are not allowed in the apartments or in apartment corridors. This includes, but is not limited to, bouncing balls, throwing Frisbees and balls, Nerf guns or other Nerf products, rollerblading, skateboarding, hoverboarding and bicycle riding. No outside water activities are allowed in the apartments or corridors. This includes, but is not limited to, swimming/wading pools, water guns, water balloons, water slides, etc. In addition, these activities are not allowed on porches as such activities may result in damage to property and constitute vandalism. If you participate in any of these activities and damage occurs, you will be charged for repairs. If you have questions, contact the CC or ACC of your area.

Outdoor Health, Safety and Aesthetic Standards

Pest Control

Housing and Dining Services has partnered with a pest control company to inspect their buildings in order to prevent and regulate infestations of cockroaches, other insects and rodents. This service is offered at no additional cost to residents. Each apartment is inspected once a month. All residents are required to participate and cooperate with the pest control program. It is imperative residents permit entrance to their apartments on the designated inspection date even in their absences. If residents have medical conditions prohibiting extermination in their apartments, written documentation from a physician must be filed with the Jardine office. Residents found in violation will be notified by Jardine Staff via a letter to their K-State email. It may come as "Maxient System."

Apartments identified by the pest control technician as infested are required to participate in the mandatory full intensive service program. Residents in this program are notified of steps they must take to prepare their apartment for treatment, and are then required to strictly follow those steps. Failure to prepare an apartment results in review of their agreement and possible eviction.
