Superintendent’s Report:
- The capacity of the garage roof drain was increased to better handle water the collects on roof.
- The Super is staying on top of ensuring all exterior drains are kept debris-free. Owners who have drains near their units should do their part, too.
- The roofing contractor is expected to start the roof replacement for the garage later this month.
- Unit 1Q experienced a leak in a recent rain storm. The roof over this and the other “townhouse” units need replacing and will be replaced.
- The Super proposed adding insulation to piping that connects 15 Bergen to 120 Boerum to alleviate any potential freezing concerns.
- FDNY will perform required fire sprinkler testing on September 27.
Financials:
- The Condo financials were reviewed, and all is in good order.
New and Ongoing Business:
- Peter Levy decided to step down from this serving as President of the Skytrack Board, though will remain a Board member. The Board expressed its gratitude and appreciation for Peter in light of the years of services he provided Skytrack as its Board President. For now, the Board has agreed that each Board member will rotate through as interim President for a 6-month period unless and until there is a volunteer to be President for a year-long term. Audrey Weinberger volunteered to be the interim President for the initial 6-month period, commencing now. Peter will provide details about the role, as well as ensure all of his files are transferred.
- The Board’s other Officers volunteered to remain in place (Katharine Flanders Mukherji – VP; Matthew Pilkington – Treasurer; Andrew Kurland – Secretary).
- The Board discussed the forthcoming improvements to the garage (e.g., patching, painting, etc.)
- The Board discussed ongoing concerns with respect to water backups in certain lower level units during major rain storms, and next steps to address. Management is working on identifying a plumber to do camera inspections of additional drain lines.
- The Board discussed ways to divert additional rain water from roof of 120 Boerum.
- The Board approved a total replacement of roofs over 1O, 1P, and 1Q, and Management is working on obtaining two additional quotes for this work. Once this area is done the roofs of the entire Condo complex will have been replaced over the course of the past two years.
