Old Business

At last the hardscaping project to install pavers on the Howell Street side of the buildings is nearly complete.

The results of the latest Reserve Study are posted to our website. All owners are invited to read the documents online

With the receipt of the Reserve Study, we are now searching for an attorney to help us remove the building from the FHA «blacklist». This is a long, slow, and expensive project. Even our regular law firm that specializes in condominium issues has refused the project.

New Business
Rot damage inside the courtyard that was uncovered after pressure washing has been repaired. A broken door closer on the 5th floor was replaced. Eric painted the walkway doors and several of the gray metal doors leading to the garages.

A contract has been awarded to replace some rotting fascia boards on the -03 stack. This will involve scaffolding that stack in order to complete the repairs. Owners affected will be notified separately.
