Superintendent’s Report:
- The large snowstorm necessitated an increased effort to keep sidewalks shoveled and icy patches abated. Our big thanks to Jose and Patrick for working so hard to combat the fast-accumulating snow.

- Reported leaks at 134 Boerum Place, due to brick and mortar conditions, have been addressed.
- The garage door lock has been changed, and new keys have been distributed to space owners.
- The emergency lights throughout the Skytrack complex are being replaced, after new ones were found to be defective.
- The board is beginning the process of protesting the recent real estate tax escalation.
- The next board meeting has been scheduled for Tuesday, February 23rd, at 7:30pm.
Financials:
- The financial statement was reviewed, and aside from a few units in minor arrears, everything is in good standing.
PLEASE NOTE:
- Please inspect your washing machine/dryer lint filters, as non-maintained washers may cause leaks between apartment units, and a build-up of lint in a dryer can lead to equipment malfunction, or fire.
- Common charges have been increased. If you currently have automatic payments established for your monthly common charges, please plan to update then service to reflect the new amount. The new amount per unit was stated in the official notice letter sent to owners from E & M Holding Corp.
- RECYCLING: Please break down your cardboard boxes before leaving them by the paper recycling areas. Also- Please do not throw plastic bags into the plastic recycling bins. They are not recyclable. CVS will accept plastic bags for recycling. There is a bin for this in the entry of their nearby store on Court Street.
