Q. Do you conduct clean checks, and if so, how often? A.
We have a clean check every week and a "white glove" check at the end
of each semester. We value the use of these checks to help you keep an
organized, sanitary home. This helps tremendously in the Spirit in your
home and in your ability to concentrate on doing your best in your
scholastic, physical, and social lives! You will be healthier, more
positive, and just plain enjoy life much more! Keep your apartment
surroundings simple and you will have plenty of time to keep them clean
and tidy.
Q. Who does the maintenance and how well is it kept up?A.
Merrell and Virginia Pratt are the owners/general managers of Normandy
and attend to most of the maintenance. The maintenance board in the
lounge is checked almost daily unless we are out of town. We try very
hard to keep everything in good working order and fulfill your
requests. All students have access to our telephone number for any
emergencies (or help of any kind). You may also e-mail at any time.
Q. How long does it take to get to campus from Normandy Apts.?A. Normandy is directly across the street from the Hart P.E. Building and the west tennis courts.
Q. Is there plenty of parking at Normandy for my vehicle? Should I bring a vehicle?A.
We have had enough parking every semester for all of our tenants who
have had vehicles. Parking requires a permit and costs $25 per
contract. We do strongly encourage students who can get by without a
car not to bring one. Parking around campus gets hard to find and
traffic around campus and even in Rexburg is getting more congested
every year. Just about everything you need is within walking distance
of Normandy unless you have a job that is too far away. Broulims, north
of Normandy about 3 blocks, even delivers groceries for a small fee.
Most of the young ladies with cars are willing to occasionally drive
someone when a need arises. Be willing to kick in some gas money!
Q. What ward do I attend at Normandy?A.
The wards change from time to time, but at the present, Normandy
belongs to the BYU-I 2nd ward. All wards meet on campus. The young men
in the ward are currently from Viking Village.
Q. Do you have an exercise room?A.
No, but the Hart P.E. building, which is just across the street, has
everything you could possibly need to keep in great shape.
Q. Can we bring a band with us and practice at Normandy?A.
Please do not bring a band to Normandy. There just isn't enough space
for big instruments. You are welcome to bring a smaller keyboard,
violin, or other instrument and practice as long as it is reasonable
and not bothersome to any of your neighbors.
Q. Does Normandy's bedroom and closet sizes meet the BYU-I requirements?A.
Not the current guidelines, but we have approval of BYU-I with a
"grandfather clause", meaning we met the previous requirements. The
three girl bedrooms are a bit short of floor and closet space, but they
work great if you limit the amount of clothes you bring and you keep
things neat and tidy. With only three girls in most of the apartments,
the living rooms and kitchens more than make up the difference in size.
