Thanks for your view on this Judy! I think it's easier for us to side with the guy on the condo board because he's an actual resident as well. The manager just works downtown, probably has a gigantic house somewhere, and never even enters our buildings. They seem to be pretty slack with most of the rules anyway. We're pretty much allowed to do anything... the previous owners even knocked a wall out. Besides, we are hardly in the bedroom anyway. We're only there to sleep and to get dressed in the morning. The spare bedroom doesn't get used at ALL except when guests are staying over, or if we are hanging laundry on the clothes horse in that room. I don't think we even use the rooms enough to really change the amount of noise coming from them.
