Tenants in an office building will from time to time request permission to make alterations (or other physical improvements) to their demised premises. Because such tenant changes generally add to the building's appearance, the owner and management are anxious to cooperate with the tenant. However, there are certain rules that regulate such work at 2100 Ross Avenue. Below lists the items required of the tenant. For the protection of the tenant, as well as the property, these rules will be followed.
Similarly, requirements for contractors, trades and other service companies performing construction work at 2100 Ross Avenue have been established. For everyone's convenience, management has prepared a Tenant Construction Guide to assist all parties in the alterations' process. The Tenant Construction Guide is issued to all Contractors doing alterations and improvements. All contractors must abide by this guide at all times.
GENERAL
- Tenant will make no alterations, decoration, installations, repairs, additions, improvements or replacements (tenant changes) in, to or about the premises without Management's prior written consent, and then only by contractors or vendors approved in advance.
- Tenant shall, prior to the commencement of any work, submit to Management for written approval a complete plan of the demised premises and/or of the floor on which the tenant change is to occur. Drawings are to be complete with full details and specifications for all of the work.
- The proposed tenant changes must comply with the Administrative Code of the City of Dallas and rules and regulations of other agencies having jurisdiction.
- No work shall be permitted to commence without the City of Dallas Building Permit being furnished.
- Permits must be received as required from the prevailing governmental authority.
- All demolition, removals and other categories of work that may inconvenience other tenants or disturb building operations must be scheduled and performed before or after normal working hours and the Management Office shall be provided with at least 48 hours notice prior to proceeding with such work.
- All inquiries, submissions, approvals and all other matters shall be processed through the Management Office.
PRIOR TO COMMENCEMENT OF WORK
- Tenant shall submit to the Management a request to perform the work. The request shall include the following enclosures:

- Contractors and subcontractors are required to submit a Certificate of Insurance to the Management Office per owner and management requirement (sample upon request).
- Management personnel shall review each request on an individual basis. Work requests should be submitted well in advance of construction commencement to provide adequate time for management review. The Management Office has 5 working days to review each request.
- Tenant shall obtain approval of plans and permits from jurisdictional agencies. Tenant shall submit copies of all approved plans and permit to Landlord and shall post the original 2100 Ross Avenue permit on the premises prior to the commencement of any work.
