Your Community's Integrated Pest Management Program

As part of our commitment to environmental protection, resident safety, and pet welfare, Cavalry Family Housing wants to familiarize you with our Integrated Pest Management (IPM) program. Your community is on federal property, meaning the use of pesticides is regulated by federal law. The primary goal is to ensure effective pest control while minimizing environmental impact and reducing unnecessary exposure to pesticides for our residents, their families, and pets.

Here's what you can expect from our IPM program:

• Preventive Strategies
• Monitoring and Assessment
• Non-Chemical Control Methods
• Targeted Pesticide Application
• Education and Awareness

How do I submit a request to alter my home?

Cavalry Family Housing does allow limited modifications within the homes.

This is a VOLUNTARY recycling program all residents can opt into. As a participant, you will get a 95-gallon blue recycling bin and bi-weekly pickup service in exchange for ensuring all recyclables are contamination free.

Fast and Convenient Electrical Vehicle Charging

Lendlease is excited to announce it has partnered with TRO Energy Solutions (TROES) as our “Level 2” electric vehicle (EV) charging partner. Residents have requested Level 2 EV charging because it’s safe, efficient, and much quicker than other charging alternatives. In fact, Level 2 charging can take as little as 5 to 6 hours to reach a full vehicle charge.

In contrast, Level 1 charging (plugging an EV directly into a regular, home electrical outlet) is slow, inefficient, and potentially unsafe - it can take 24 hours or longer to charge a vehicle. TROES will provide Level 2 charging options for residents with an affordable monthly subscription. Due to the nature of Level 1 charging, it will no longer be allowable under the terms of a resident's lease and the Community Guidelines.

For residents with electric vehicles interested in charging their vehicle at home, TROES will install, set up, and maintain your Level 2 charging station at no cost other than an affordable monthly subscription. There are NO out-of-pocket installation, setup or maintenance costs for residents that subscribe with TROES.

Residents interested in having a Level 2 charging station installed at their home can take the following steps to engage TROES directly:

1. Visit https://troes.io to begin registration or click here.
2. Select a ChargeTime plan that is right for you. This is a direct subscription between the resident and TROES.
3. A TROES installation specialist will call you to coordinate the installation schedule.
4. Once the EV charger is installed, you can conveniently manage usage, billing, scheduling and more through the ChargeTime app or by directly contacting TROES.

During your leasing process we provided a Mold 101 Guide that discusses prevention, identification, and the procedure for reporting concerns to your maintenance team. Please immediately notify the Maintenance Solution Center if you discover a leak or suspect water intrusion of any kind in your home. To revisit the guide for prevention and reporting tips, please click here.

Additionally, click here to revisit the EPA’s Lead Based Paint brochure provided with your lease packet.

Is renters insurance required?

Beginning April 1, 2023, renters insurance is required at time of move-in and must be maintained at all times during residency with Cavalry Family Housing at the expense of the resident. Renters insurance protects you from claims for property damage and physical injury caused by or to you, a member of your family or a guest while living in your home. The lease requires proof of insurance coverage meeting the minimum requirements with Cavalry Family Housing  named as an interested party at time of move-in.

Minimum Required Insurance Coverage:

• Limits of liability in an amount of at least $100,000 per occurrence

Cavalry Family Housing strongly recommends you add property insurance to cover losses or damage to your personal belongings or the personal belongings of your family or guests. Please keep in mind that Cavalry Family Housing will not cover the loss of or damage to your personal property or the personal property of your family members or guests.

You may choose any renters insurance provider. We offer ResidentShield to residents as an easy and affordable option for renters insurance. Visit www.residentshield.com/lendlease for more information or to sign up today!

If you fail to obtain and maintain liability insurance as required by your lease, you will be in violation of your obligation under the lease. For more information, click here.
