Street Cleaning Regulations Suspension

Street Cleaning Regulations will be suspended within the following borders starting Monday, July 7, and lasting an estimated six to eight weeks:

North: Wyckoff Street (not included) from Court Street to 3rd Avenue
Saint Mark’s Place (not included) from 3rd Avenue to 4th Avenue

East: 4th Avenue (included) from Saint Mark’s Place to 15th Street
South: 15th Street (not included) from 4th Avenue to Hamilton Avenue
Hamilton Avenue (not included) from 15th Street to Court Street

West: Court Street (included) from Hamilton Avenue to Atlantic Avenue

The new Street Cleaning Regulations will take effect once sign changes are complete in the entire area, also indicated on the attached map. The changes do not affect 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. parking rules or meter regulations, or any other parking rules that are not Street Cleaning Regulations.

The DOT will give advance notification before enforcement resumes, and the public is encouraged to check the DOT’s Web site at www.nyc.gov/dot and call 311 regularly.

Similar conversions and temporary suspensions of ASP rules will occur later this year in the remaining neighborhoods of Board 6, including Red Hook and Columbia Heights. A total of 9,200 signs are being changed in the district.

In response to the grafitti at 120 Boerum

As many of you know, our Board of Managers meets monthly to review the routine tasks that keep our Condo running, manage our financial condition, and address Condo owners’ needs. Our priority is to maintain a welcoming and open atmosphere where owners are proud to reside, and are free to voice suggestions.

We are volunteers – all of us with other commitments, including full-time jobs and families. We donate our time and energy to ensure that Skytrack runs effectively and efficiently. We are owners just like you and wish to do the very best for our collective buildings.

Someone recently left anonymous remarks on the bulletin board at 120 Boerum; the board was defaced with graffiti, and an unsigned letter was posted. Frankly, actions taken by this anonymous owner are both childish and underhanded. Such actions are antithetical to the kind of community we are trying to build.

We would like to remind all owners that you are welcome to voice your opinions in a civilized manner. Written notes or emails are preferred, and signed notes may be placed in the suggestion box in the lobby of your building. The Board will always respond to you.

Every owner has the right to raise questions or comments about the board’s decisions; more importantly, every owner has the right to serve on the board and thus change policy. Complaining is the easy part. However, you do have an opportunity to effect change – simply volunteer to join the board.

The member terms of the Board are arranged so that every year seats are up for election at our annual meeting. Since 2004, nobody new has volunteered to be on the board. In fact, in 2007 the board was reduced to seven members due to the lack of volunteers.

If you have a complaint, please don’t trivialize it like a graffiti artist. Volunteer to join the board.
