The staff/faculty member must fill out the CNG Housing Status Form (Annex 2) specifying intent to vacate. This form must be completed and returned directly to the HR Department. Once this form is received, the apartment will be reassigned, or a notification to return will be sent to the owner/landlord. The staff member must vacate the property on the date stipulated by HR. As described before, under General Housing Policy, the property must be returned to the landlord in the same condition as it was upon occupancy, except for normal wear and tear. HR will conduct an inspection to guarantee the property is in good condition. The staff/faculty member must be present at the final inspection, for which an appointment must be requested with the CNG HR Department. The HR Department will send calendar options to staff/faculty members to select a mandatory appointment for the inspection in order to avoid any misunderstandings about damages to the apartment. In order to help ensure that no charges are incurred for damages, vacating residents should review the following minimum standards: Floors: All floors must be clean. Wooden floors must be broom-swept or vacuumed. Linoleum/tile floors must be damp mopped. Normal wear and tear will be taken into account, as will the length of tenancy. Any significant marks/scratches on the floor will not be considered “normal wear and tear,” and the staff/faculty member will be charged accordingly for fix-up costs. Carpets: All carpets must be vacuumed and cleaned. Normal wear will be taken into account, as will the length of tenancy. Any significant spots/stains and excessive dirt will not be considered “normal wear and tear,” and the staff/faculty member will be charged accordingly for clean-up/repair costs. Walls: Normal wear and tear will be taken into account, as will the length of tenancy. Any significant marks (e.g., crayon, marker, etc.) and/or excessive dirt on the walls will not be considered “normal wear and tear,” and the staff/faculty member will be charged accordingly for clean-up costs. Kitchen: Kitchen walls and floors must be clean and free of surface grease. In addition, special attention must be paid to the following:
Bathroom: Bathroom walls and floors, toilet and sink must be clean.
