April 1 begins mandatory composting with possible fines for non-compliance.  No Joke.

What to Compost in the Brown Bins

ALL leaf and yard waste, including flowers and Christmas trees

ALL food scraps, including meat, bones, shells, and dairy

Prepared and cooked foods

Greasy uncoated paper plates and pizza boxes

Products certified or labeled compostable.

DO NOT compost trash such as wrappers, pet waste, medical waste, diapers, foam, personal, or hygiene products.

DO NOT compost metal glass, plastic, cartons, clean paper, or cardboard.

Do not let unknown people into the buildings

For the second time, at about 8:00 P.M. the night of Saturday, March 8th, 2025, there was a group of teenage boys running loudly on the stairs and the roof of 120 Boerum Place.  They engaged in dangerous behavior on the roof in addition to disturbing neighbors there.  They do not live here, so they probably rang intercom buttons until someone let them in.

Residents of 120 Boerum Pl. and 15 Bergen St., DO NOT “buzz in”  anyone unless you are expecting them.  Call the police should you see any dangerous activity happening on the roof.  

NOTICE TO SKYTRACK GARAGE OWNERS

Please take notice that, except as set out below, owners and renters of garage units at Skytrack are not permitted to use the condominium’s electrical lines and outlets to charge their vehicles or for other uses in the garage. 

If an owner or renter of a garage unit has an emergency, such as a completely dead battery, not just a battery with a low charge, and it would be safe to do so, the owner or renter may address that emergency by using the garage’s electrical lines or outlets but only if the board of managers is notified before any such use and grants permission to do so. If such permission is granted, the owner of the garage unit is responsible for:

  • determining whether the proposed use of the garage’s electrical lines and outlets would be safe;
  • ensure that only a level 1 charger with a maximum 120 v. and 20 amp. draw is used;
  • inform Val Boleviq and/or Patrick Knights of the intended usage and allow them to check the draw capacity of the level 1 charger to be used;
  • Ensure that only one plug is in each electrical outlet, located at both ends of the garage, before the charger is inserted into the outlet.

The owner will be charged fifty dollars ($50.00) per day for each such use, whether the charger is used for the entire day or only part of it. For this purpose, the day will run from 12:00 am (midnight) to 11:59 pm on the date of use. This fee is to be paid to Skytrack Condominium. 

The owner of a garage unit is responsible for any damage to the garage’s electrical lines or outlets, or to any other portion of the condominium’s property or the property of any owner or renter of a garage or residential unit, resulting from the owner’s or renter’s use of the condominium’s electrical lines or outlets in the garage, whether or not the board grants approval for the emergency use.

The owner is responsible for informing the renter of all of the restrictions and requirements set forth above, and the owner, not the renter, must request the board’s approval for each emergency use of the garage’s electrical lines or outlets. It is up to the owner whether to seek reimbursement from the renter for any fee for such use.
