“Do you feel comfortable knowing that someone can be watching every time you use the elevator to go out and the time you return?
Are you okay with someone watching the movements of your children coming home from school?
Are you okay with someone seeing that you’re leaving the floor with a suitcase – an indication that no one will be home at night or for a few days?”
How is this any different from the cameras already in place?
ONE VOICE RESPONSE:
IF IT’S NOT “ANY DIFFERENT FROM THE CAMERAS ALREADY IN PLACE”. WHY DO YOU NEED MORE?
IT’S A BIG DIFFERENCE.
THE IN PLACE CAMERAS ARE SECURITY FOR INSIDE THE ELEVATORS AND THE ENTRANCE/EXIT DOORS FOR THE BUILDING SECURITY.
PUTTING CAMERAS ON OUR FLOORS IS NOT FOR SECURITY.
IT FACTUALLY INVADES OUR PERSONAL PRIVACY.
AND IT’S AN UNNECESSARY EXPENDITURE ON THE BACKS OF THE SHAREHOLDERS!
One Voice now has over 500 THOUGHTS comments so it’s time for us to delete some of the older and insignificant comments. We’ll be doing that throughout this week.
A personal choice is also to delete the “fashion” comments relative to the annual meeting.
No one cares how anyone was dressed.
The purpose of this website is for our shareholders to share their THOUGHTS with other shareholders about the well being of the co-op we live in and the manner and trustworthiness in which it is (or is not) being managed.
————————
Everyone should know – and care about – the Board’s intent to place a camera on every floor of our six building co-op.
Do you approve of that invasion of your privacy?
Do you feel comfortable knowing that someone can be watching every time you use the elevator to go out and the time you return?
Are you okay with someone watching the movements of your children coming home from school?
Are you okay with someone seeing that you’re leaving the floor with a suitcase – an indication that no one will be home at night or for a few days?
OUR PERSONAL MOVEMENTS ARE NOT THEIR BUSINESS!

Fraud is happening right in front of those who actually cared to vote. Any tips to reach out to our local congresswoman and other city representatives regarding this current board?
I feel it was out of the frying pan when jumping ship from Chandra and now it’s straight into the fire with this current board. I’m pretty content with what was going on but I fear what’s going to happen in the future if this current board remains which is a definite.
Next board meeting, I would Suggest that we hear from the board members on Every update. The attorney is not needed at the meetings. If needed, the board secretary can provide the minutes and highlight the questions that the board could not answer. Let’s start saving fees to speak on behalf of the board. The board needs to be more engaged and not rely on the attorneys wit.
Everytime we have a board meeting there is the Attorney speaking and charging the coop. It’s like wee are sitting in a court room with her. Since when does a coop need an attorney at every meeting. The poor audience was sitting the dark while she was running the show. Now, my main concern is that in each board meeting the attorney appears to have all these allegations but never any factual evidence. It’s always talk. Meanwhile the board is sitting there dumbfoundly.
“Everyone in the entire co-op has talked to Chandra Jain at one time or another – including me – but we were not friends.”
In 2021, David Silverman got up on stage and basically declared Chandra the messiah to everyone. This board is VERY Chandra friendly.

ANSWER!
The above writer is desperate to keep the current Board in power because “she” makes money from it. “He” makes money from it, and most likely her “coworker” makes money from it. They have what can best be comparable to a criminal enterprise.
In the 1950’s they’d have used guns to eliminate their competition but it’s 2022 and all they can do is make every attempt to defame the shareholders who want them out of this co-op’s money-making enterprise.
WHY ELSE HAVE THEY PRINTED THOSE YELLOW PAPERS?
WHY ELSE HAVE THEY SLIPPED NOTICES UNDER THE DOORS OF SHAREHOLDERS ACCUSING THE NEW CANDIDATES AS BEING “FRIENDS OF CHANDRA”.
WHY ELSE HAVE THEY SLIPPED NOTICES SAYING “VOTE FOR THESE PEOPLE” – AND ALL THE NAMES ON THAT NOTICE ARE THE CURRENT BOARD?
WHY? AFTER THE MEETING IS SHE STILL TRYING TO DAMAGE THE REPUTATION OF THE NEW CANDIDATES BY WRITING ON THIS WEBSITE? … YOU ALL KNOW WHO SHE IS.
HER WRITINGS ARE THE SAME AS SMELLING HORSESHIT WHEN YOU WALK INTO A STABLE.
And that’s my personal opinion!
ELECTION NIGHT
There are no election results yet. Honest Ballot is taking all of the proxies to their office and will proceed to verify the shareholder name and signatures to co-op records.
After that they will begin a count of who got what number of voted shares. The process can be several days… and then we’ll be notified.
We have 1,096 apartments in our co-op and my best guess is that there were only 200 people there. I was personally happy that many were from 9740.
Emma Lupu did say they had the required 51% of shareholder proxies, so there was a Quorum.
SHAMEFUL that those of you who stayed home would put your trust in so few people… and most that I saw at the meeting were supporters of the current Board.
I was shocked by the crookedness that can only be attributed to the current Board. There was a new shareholder with one paper headed something like “CHANDRA JAIN SUPPORTERS DO NOT VOTE” and it listed the 9 new candidates on Lalit Khanna’s slate. There was another that favored the current Board with their names in bigger print.
If the current Board has nothing to hide – why are they going to such extremes to make the new candidates look bad?
They wrote that some of them were friends with Chandra Jain. Everyone in the entire co-op has talked to Chandra Jain at one time or another – including me – but we were not friends. I used to ask questions about his conflicts… and I pissed him off every time. Friends???
I repeat – if this Board has nothing to hide – why did they try so hard to discredit the new candidates???
NOW PAY ATTENTION!
Someone was sincere in asking if the By-Laws can be changed. BE VERY CAREFUL ABOUT THAT. The By Laws actually protect you from a corrupt Board. You might ask for one thing to be changed and a corrupt Board can casually change a few other words elsewhere giving them absolute control.
When the old Board hinted at “updating” the By-Laws I warned everyone to speak with an attorney before signing an amendment to our By-Laws and put that warning in every lobby. When the old Board realized it would be an uphill battle they changed their mind and went in another direction which was to tell all of their investor friends when a Sponsor apartment or Estate Sale apartment was up for sale – and those investors bought it. The old Board’s probable plan was to take over the co-op by either changing the By-Laws or having overwhelming votes by investor friends to keep the Board in total control of the co-op. It also helped that the old Board had friends with the former Election Ballot company results favoring the Board.
With this Board be very very careful of what they say they want to do and what they really want to do.
Best example – they said we’d get a new Property Manager, We got Navid!
Who won? Please provide updates. Thank you 🙏
Park City 3 & 4 Election Newsletter
September 8th 2022Dear Shareholders,
It is time to vote! Listed below are the new candidates in the running for the 2022 Board of Directors:
Arthur Ayarloff Michael Bassanell Rajendra Jain Lalit Khanna Velarie Melvin
Ronald Migut Hesham Nouh Yakov Rybakov Adis Scelsi David Silverman
The above-mentioned candidates represent your interest – ensuring Park City 3 & 4 protects and builds shareholder equity, operates in accordance with best practices, and stays true to our vision of operating a sustainable Cooperative. Collectively the candidates bring a wealth of experience from the fields of Property Management, Finance, Taxation and Law. This slate of candidates are gravely concerned by the following actions (or lack thereof) taken by the Board:
Increased Debt:
Debt at Park City 3 & 4 has nearly doubled from 16 million to 30 million dollars despite the underlying mortgage being due in 2024. This represents a significant financial liability for all current and further shareholders.Conflict of Interest:
Directors and Officers of the Corporation do not satisfy the highest standards of conduct and integrity. Multiple conflicts of interest exist between the current Directors and the Managing Agent.Transparency:
The current Board has shown minimal effort in consulting shareholders, holding adequate shareholder meetings and failing to keep shareholders apprised of major financial decisions.Bookkeeping:
Inaccurate financial statements, illegitimate late fees, error prone maintenance billing are just some of the current day-day issues shareholders confront.Elevators:
Elevator service throughout Park City 3 & 4 has greatly degraded. The Board is responsible to ensure proper preventative maintenance is performed on a timely basis.Capital Improvements:
Additional debt was secured in advance of evaluating the MEP and Building needs of Park City 3 & 4. Current projects do not bring value to the Cooperative and are improper use of funds.Legal Representation:
The Board has over relied on the services of Legal Counsel to perform basic duties as specified in the By-Laws. The Treasurer and President have yet to provide proper updates during shareholder meetings. Legal Counsel has engaged in aggressive behavior towards shareholders.We respectfully request your vote to remove the current Board and implement the necessary changes to bring about professional property management for Park City 3 & 4.
IF YOU SIGNED ONE OF THE DOOR TO DOOR PROXYS AND – AFTER YOU READ THE BIOGRAPHIES – YOU WANT TO CHANGE YOUR VOTE.
YOU CAN CHANGE YOUR VOTE
READ THE HONEST BALLOT LETTER THAT CAME WITH YOUR PROXY. IT STATES THAT ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS GO TO THE MEETING WITH PROOF (A MAINTENANCE BILL) AND YOUR PHOTO ID AND TELL THE HONEST BALLOT PERSON YOU WANT TO CHANGE YOUR VOTE.
DO IT BEFORE 6:30PM THURSDAY IN FRONT OF THE HONEST BALLOT PERSON.
Why don’t you all campaign? You held one event and I haven’t seen any of you collecting in weeks. How are people supposed to know you enough to vote for you?
Answer to above question:
My guess is the intelligent shareholders would want to see the printed biographies of all of the candidates before they decide on the future of the co-op. Voting on an entire slate of candidates is like buying a sealed bag of apples… some may be edible… others not yet ripe… one or two may be rotten. Also, animosity grows when they knock on your door at dinner hours.

on a side note there is a rumor going around that Navid purchased a big black pick up truck with Park City funds. It’s parked in garage A …where the maintenance keeps the lawn mowers. Can someone confirm if there is any truth to that?
Your right. They were running scared but now too quiet.
I think there friends at (the not so) Honest Ballot gives the names of all shareholders who did not mail in a proxy and maybe they already know who not voted last year and Zarina crowd could filled out proxys for all of the COULD NOT BE BOTHER SHAREHOLDERS.
They cheated every way with taking signs away and there pisture showing all over. Why not expect they would do act of fraud too.
Talk to people in your building. Ask them if they voted? Tell them you think if they not voted that maybe someone signed there name on a proxy. Tell them to go to the meeting and check or ask for there apt number if they did not vote or sign a proxy. Keep a list. After election if we will need it.
If one proof of one fraud proxys can stop the election and can file fraud with District Attorney.
A fix is guaranteed. They are laughing all the way to bank.
I have an uneasy feeling. Things have been going too quietly even though the election is this Thursday. Do you suppose that the fix is already in?
