Board Meeting in Section 5, 3/22/2023

A lot of cooperators showed up for our board meeting in section 5 on March 22, 2023. So, let’s go over a few things that happened during this meeting.

In-kind Donations

March

Financial Issues

Despite what you may have read, we have a lot of financial issues here. Therefore, we just had a 7.5 percent increase on January 1, 2023. And, now, can you believe that our board is reviewing our budgets to perhaps lessen or avert another increase? But, think, why is this happening when we will make over $260 million within this fiscal year?

Lawsuits

Riverbay is currently defending 115 lawsuits. And, 78 percent of these lawsuits are by cooperators that are suing their own corporation. Regardless, all of our cooperators will ultimately pay for these lawsuits with increased insurance premiums and legal fees.

Doggie Bags

Recently, I received some photos about how some cooperators are using the grassy areas near building 24 (on Co-op City Blvd., near the baseball fields.) to let their dog do their business. Furthermore, statements were made during our section 5 meeting that our workers are filling the doggie stations with bags. Thereafter, some cooperators are taking out all of the garbage bags.

Look, this type of foolishness is wrong. You do not take out all of the bags for your personal use.

Bottom line: Talking and writing lots of articles will not get some of our cooperators to clean up after their dog. Therefore, we need for some of our officers to video the cooperators that are not cleaning up after their dogs. Then, they need to issue community complaints to them.

Killer Curb Garbage

As you’re going into section 5, near that bridge, there is a winding section of the road that has been described as “killer curb.” And, during the meeting, a lot of complaints were made about the garbage that is piled up near killer curb. So, management needs to have a discussion with NYC officials about cleaning up that area.

A former director along with other cooperators discussed the process of Riverbay limiting their in-kind donations to some of our community groups. However, let’s see if we can look at this matter in a better way.

As cited above, Riverbay is going to make more than $260 million this year. Therefore, in my opinion, we need to look out for the children, the teens, and everyone else here. So, can Riverbay do a few nice things for everyone? Educational activities? Big, inflatable toys? Sports, games, and other activities? Dances? Concerts? Fireworks shows? Movies?

If yes, then, our community groups should develop some plans with Riverbay to put on these activities. Riverbay should then fund these activities and provide everything that’s needed. No nonsense! Thereafter, our community groups can make everything happen. And, everyone can have a wonderful time.

Bottom line: We make a lot of money here. However, in my opinion, we need to drastically reduce our budgets so that we can thrive. Summertime? We can have nice summer events here. After-school programs? Riverbay can work with good community groups and offer after-school programs in our huge community rooms. We can also have programs for everyone. I want everyone to enjoy Co-op City.

Convector Problems

There were a lot of complaints about convector leaks. So, we need to consider that the laws in NYS are going to eventually prevent us from using natural gas to operate our power plant, our stoves, and our convectors.

Therefore, we need to start having discussions with our politicians about obtaining grants to update the electrical systems in our buildings. Thereafter, we can have systems developed to provide heat and cool air in our apartments. Leaks? Riverbay can help you with convector leaks. Also, you can go on your electronic device and type in ‘universal absorbent socks.’ Thereafter, you’ll see that lots of people place them around leaky devices to absorb and contain gallons of water from flowing throughout a floor.

Brown Water

There were complaints about brown water in some apartments. So, Riverbay is going to have our water systems tested.

Lobby

Doors Not Staying Closed

Our lobby doors are ADA compliant. However, our lobby doors will not stay closed on windy days. So, my suggestion is that we should talk to a manufacturer about this problem. Thereafter, they can design a device that will exert pressure on the doors so that they will close at a reasonable pace. Then, that exerted pressure will help our doors to stay in a closed position.

Verizon

Verizon should start installing their wires in section 5 in June 2023. They will probably finish their work in Co-op City in December 2024. New Restaurant – Bartow Westside Wings Corp, LLC. will be taking over that Arby’s spot.

Resolution #23-16 Controversy

Riverbay presented a bid for $276,800 to replace 8 transformers. However, Riverbay placed a 15% contingency fee of $41,520 on top of this bid. Why? Well, the reasoning was that management would not have to return to the board if the overall price exceeded the original bid price.

Anyway, a vote was taken, and the contingency fee was removed from the resolution. Fine? No!!! Look, the bidder knows that he can probably still get $41,520 extra. So, do you think that he is going to leave $41,520 on the table? What about a future change order? Anyway, I voted no. But, the majority of the board voted yes after the contingency fee was removed.

Shareholders First – We Matter. Estimados Compañeros Accionistas, Calidad de Vida/Perros

Somos accionistas primero: Nosotros importamos.

I want to thank the many shareholders and cooperators who attended the Open Board Meeting last Wednesday evening at the Einstein Center’s Room 45, especially those who stepped up to the microphone to voice their concerns and opinions.

Although the meeting was scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m., the actual start time was 7:55 p.m. In offering my apologies for our tardiness, it is important that everyone attending the Open Board meeting know that your Board members and upper Management were meeting outlook (carrying charges), therefore, the extended participation was absolutely essential.

Brown Water

In taking a moment to address two of our shareholders who came to speak before the Board, I want to thank them for bringing the “brown water” back into the discussion. Back in August of 2021, I contacted the in touch with a DEP representative who basically explained that the “brown water” was probably the result of the DEP shutting down the Catskill Aqueduct for an all-important rehabilitation project, which included the removal and replacement of century old valves along 74 northern miles of the Aqueduct. meeting, I felt it necessary to ask Assemblyman Benethe same time, it is my understanding that Management will also look at the complaints made by our residents during the meeting to see if they can determine whether or not the issue is with supply, or an internal issue. the DEP’s contact me immediately with assurances that

The DEP representative went on to suggest that they which at that time, was providing 250 million gallons of water per day to the Bronx, Manhattan, Queens and Brooklyn.

The representative further acknowledged that there were taste and smell issues (along with color) of the water being delivered to our homes. I shared that information in my Director’s viewpoint in the August 28, 2021 edition of the Co-op City Times.

Open Board Meeting Follow-Ups

should the issue not be internal, that I can contact them so that the DEP can perform their methods of testing the water coming into our buildings, and throughout tive track, I recommend that all concerned residents consider the following resources: https://health.ny.gov/environmental/water/drinking/nyc_nassau_county_feasibility_ port.pdf of course, 311 for immediate reporting of a problem. Brown Water Cooperators Know About Riverbay Management performs the task of making certain that our water tanks (housed on the roofs of our buildings) have to be cleaned periodically. These tanks hold the domestic water supply for the hot and cold water coming into our apartments. When the tanks are in our buildings, at the elevator bays, and distribute time of the discontinuance of water coming into our apartments. The messaging usually allows for 8 to to: “Please make sure that you keep your faucets in a closed position.” back with great pressure, and if your faucets were left the water is restored, it usually comes out as dirty brown residue laden water, a result of the tanks being cleaned. Therefore, run the water until it appears clear. There is one important step that does not appear on the notice, however, everyone needs to always do this. Clean the

The residue from all of that brown water is being passed through a cet. The housing for the and the round silver mesh and scrubbed with an old toothbrush and dish liquid. After performing that reassembly can be a little tricky, so if hand strength, eyesight, or manual dexterity is an issue, by all means, ask for assistance.

It should be understood that by not performing the water through dirt and residue. The build-up of residue

Thirty-four (34) shareholders signed up to address current stated price, would cost approximately $3.25 million, without the installation costs. Then there’s the price for the installation of a digital storage safe for our in the possession of Management for entry into your apartment when the water shut-off alarm in the device sounds off.

At the risk of overkill, I only want to say this again. water coming from the convectors in our apartments come from blockages within the convectors’ piping. Blockages that are basically microbial and can be removed from our piping. I estimate that the cost of removing microbial blockages from our convector pipes If the water is allowed to pass through our system, then chanically related.

At this particular moment in time, (we) the Corporation, need to look for savings, not excessive spending, at every level of business.

As always, thank you for reading my viewpoint. I can be reached at: rsaunders@riverbayboard.com.

Equal Rights Amendment

To the Editor:

This is written in response to a letter supporting the “Equal Rights Amendment” in last week’s Co-op Times. It should be recognized that there were also many women who opposed the E.R.A. because no one could predict what changes the passage of this law might lead to.

Critics who studied the E.R.A. feared that the bill, if passed, might have led to the possibility of women being drafted into the military, should the draft be re-instituted. Other concerns were the housing of female jail inmates with males, and women being forced to use toilets or changing rooms occupied by men. Since the bill failed twice, none of these concerns needed to be addressed.

I recall that the spokeswoman for a Black civil-rights organization called the ‘Equal Rights Amendment’ the ‘liftin’ and totin’ bill, because passage of the act might make it impossible for employers in the manual labor and service industries to allow female workers to carry disparate weights, when compared to men, and have certain accommodations.

For these reasons, among others, some of the American people have turned down the ERA repeatedly.

The current average carrying charge per room, per month, including utilities, is $255.87, as a result of a 7.5% increase that became effective January 1, 2023, following approval from the state Division of Housing and Community Renewal (DHCR). The current proposal for a 2.1% maintenance increase would raise the current average carrying charge per room, per month to $261.24, and, together with increases for transient parking and parking pass rates, enable

Implementation of the proposed increase in April 2024 requires approval from the state Division of Housing and Community Renewal (DHCR), the supervisory agency for Mitchell-Lama developments such as Co-op City. Resolution 23-19 resolves that with the Board’s approval of the two-year budget for 2023/24 and 2024/25, the Board President and

Good day, fellow shareholders.

Firstly, I was pleased to meet Ms. Rozaan Boone, Editor-in-Chief of the Co-op City Times, at the Open Board meeting. I was delighted to make her acquaintance had the chance to have a quick conversation with Bob Klehammer, Executive General Manager of Co-op City. I was surprised at how approachable he was, mainly because I needed to discuss with him how the climate of the meeting had become a little tense for a minute. It does not matter where I lived; we fought if there was a board. Nothing should be taken personally; it is business. And

Spring is in the air! We will soon start seeing the leaves growing on the trees, venturing outside and enjoying the beautiful weather, we are sure their pets will accompany them. We request that shareholders with pets be more attentive when cleaning up behind their animals. It makes the space more enjoyable for your fellow cooperators and creates a safer environment for our pets (multiple infectious diseases are transmitted through animal waste). If your children walk the pets, please ensure they do the right thing. No one enjoys having to duck and dodge animal waste on their walking paths.

Shareholders, elections for Board members will be happening soon. Co-op are imminent! For one, our convectors need to be replaced, and Riverbay is At the meeting, there were many complaints. The easy things will be resolved. The big-ticket items will understandably take longer. We need additional Board members with the knowledge and skill to help us with expensive capital projects. If you are a shareholder with the intelligence and skills necessary to assist, please run for a position! We are supposed to be an affordable community. At the rate we are going, affordability will go right out the window!

In addition to our other issues, we have a shareholder in the building no one has seen for some time, and neighbors are concerned. Riverbay will not disclose information about you to anyone not a family member. If you live alone, it would be wise to give a neighbor the number of a close friend or relative if anything happens to you. It would surprise you to know how many neighbors are concerned about you. So please, give a few people an emergency contact number. lost loved ones, you are all in our prayers.

Take care now, and walk good!
