I would keep Akam. Impeach the current board and Emma lupu the attorney. What can we do to luck Zarina and her team out. As a shareholder I don’t like the many decisions that are being made. Also, she is changing the security here at park city. Many of us chose to live here cause of having the security guards downs stairs. The only person that needs to be kicked out of park city is Zarina and her entire “Team”.
Sad
I agree with January 14 12:54 pm shareholder.
All previous multi-page Financial Statements were issued and signed by the Independent Auditors. The one page delivered to your door is not.
All past financial statements have been issued in 17 or more pages and distributed at a shareholders meeting with the accountant present to explain questions about the report. They should also show expenditures for two years past (2021) and the forecast for the last year (2022) and the actual for the last year (2022) AND THEN the forecast for the next year (2023).
Where is the Budget Forecast page that shows the comparative detailed Revenues and Expenses for Actual 2021 – 2022 – with the 2023 budget forecast??? Are they afraid to show it?
We are SHAREHOLDERS of a CORPORATION and all of the corporations finances are our business.
Do they think we are stupid enough to accept the one page financial report as fact???
Somewhere in our co-op there must be a professional business-person who can intelligently present this excuse for a report to the Attorney General.
Someone?
Zarina trying to get rid of the security guards and make more money with her husband so they can make more weddings in Mexico.
Finally received the Financial Report today – or did we? Under the previous Management/Board/Accounting Firm, we would receive an extensive multipage financial report by the end of October covering the following year. Under the present Management/Board/Accounting Firm, we received a few figures attached to the Newsletter. This is a great way of hiding information such as how much Emma has taken us for. Isn’t there some legal requirement that new shareholders must receive a complete financial report and shouldn’t all of us receive one as well?
I’m glad someone spoke up about the Russian board. I came from Russia as a young girl. Today I am a Russian/AMERICAN free woman. I have no real pride in saying I am of Russian decent. As I grew up I learned that to be Russian was to be a socialist/communist. Nothing has ever changed that.
If people here want to say they are Russian then they should go back to that country and live enslaved in the poverty and dictatorship they left behind.
In my education I learned Russian Soviet-Communists supported North Korea in the 1950’s – then the Russian Communists tried to put missiles in Cuba to threaten the U.S. and then supported North Vietnam in the 1960-1970’s. Russia-now simply socialist – invaded Afghanistan in the 1980’s. Chechnya in 1990’s. In the early 2000’s Russia invaded Georgia and Crimea. And now Ukraine and Moldavia and Russia is a threat to all counties of the once USSR who are not a member of the European Union. Russians have been and are still supporting every country that is against American Freedom. Are you really proud to say you are Russian??? I am NOT!
You should be saying, as I do, I’m Russian/AMERICAN or AMERICAN, born in Russia. You should have no pride in saying you are Russian and you should not feel that you have any obligation to support the Russians on our board because they use the Russian language to intimidate or bribe you into keeping them in power.
They are the soviet union board of Park City and you keep them alive with your false loyalty to those who speak Russian while they are screwing with your livelihood.
They and the questionable lawyer will take everything you have away from you because that is the Soviet way.

Just got the AKAM “Safety Information Pamphlet” in todays mail. You see the notice on the page “Building Information Section” that it shows AKAMs new address at 99 Park Avenue. Did you know they moved?
You can also see that in your buildings description that the box for Fire Alarm reads NO.
And the Public Address System box reads NO.
But notice that it shows boxes for speakers (in other co-ops) could be located in a stairwell, Hallway, Dwelling Unit and then OTHER.
The OTHER is where an intelligent Board and Managing Agent (AKAM) COULD HAVE purchased a camera system that included a Public Address System and or a Fire Alarm. But NO, the only future purpose to the un-monitored and very expensive camera system is solely to see who attacked you in the elevator section of your floor AFTER THE FACT -OR- to be able to see you panicking during a fire or choking on excessive smoke on your floor – AFTER THE FACT.
The only other purpose for the stupid cameras is to see who doesn’t dispose of their garbage properly so that the office can fine you… more money in there unreported slush fund????
You need to change this Board.
Its not racist to get rid of the Russians on the Board because they have the majority and control the Board and the Rose/Zarina/David enterprise and our money. Do not ever vote for them again. They are not your friends and probably do not care if you live or die.
The NYS STAR exemption is closed to new applications as of August 2022 but if you were receiving the Basic STAR exemption you will continue to receive it. NYC will send you a letter if you are required to renew your existing application. In addition, if you are receiving Basic STAR, you can still upgrade to Enhanced STAR if you qualify.
Also note that if you are not actually living in your apartment, you are not entitled to the Property Tax Abatement or Senior Citizen Tax Exemption. If you sublet – you lose those credits. Claiming them when not living in the apartment is against the law. Reporting ownership/residency changes is the responsibility of the Board and Managing Agent but individual shareholders may still be liable.
If you got STAR in the past, I assume that you don’t have to reapply each year since we never had to previously.
If you are a resident shareholder and are age 65 or older you are entitled to annual tax credits for STAR or Enhanced STAR, or Senior Citizen, Veterans, or Disability exemptions… those exemption credits are given to you once a year – on your June monthly maintenance statements – but only if you file on time.
YOU MUST FILE WITH NYC Department of Finance NO LATER THAN MARCH 1st.
Photo Identification is required and in some instances they want a COPY of your shareholders Stock Certificate.
You can obtain additional information by calling NYC 311 – or texting 311-682 – or online to https://portal.311.nyc.gov
In some cases, a local Community Center might offer some assistance in obtaining the proper forms.
As of November 19, 2022, only 343 resident shareholders have applied for STAR and only 68 applied for Enhanced STAR.
Sorry I have not checked the site in a while but I’d like to address the upcoming maintenance increase.
As a candidate on Election night I discussed the fact that NYC property taxes increase every year so maintenance increases reflect that amount at a minimum. My Bklyn coop held an annual Budget meeting late Fall where the Coop’s Chief Accountant explained/ broke down the components of the maintenance increase for the shareholders including City property tax % increase and answered shareholders questions. Park City’s Board should hold such meetings and also explain in the Newsletter.
PS-Again it was NOT THE CANDIDATES’ choice to introduce our selves Election Night we wanted to have Candidates Night a couple of weeks before! Hopefully future candidates will not have the headaches and unfair treatment that the 2022 new candidates slate had. V.F.Melvin
When Emma first took part in the fight against the Jain Board she was getting $300 an hour.
When the new Board came to power Emma was charging $400 an hour
Emma openly admitted there where no records or files left in the office by Jain but that didn’t stop her from filing suit against Jain and Phoenix “alleging” -even though she had no paperwork to prove it- that they conspired to cheat the coop and at her new $600 an hour she took them to court and lost the case against Phoenix and the coop had to pay past due money to Phoenix.
Does the Board pay Emma personally or pay the lawfirm she is or was working for???
You actually believe what comes out Emma’s mouth.?? Emma is an evil woman and i cant wait to see how she goes down.. zarina, David and the evil board all going to hell soon.!! CHEERS.🍹
Emma told us at a meeting that they’ve now hired a “great” elevator company. Maybe they’re “great” at causing elevator breakdowns because since they’ve taken over, we’ve had more instances of elevators not working in most if not all of our buildings. Is this a coincidence or preparing us for an excuse for an expensive elevator project?
Instead of fixing those two office downstairs in 9707 making own a security office which was not needed and one for the management team fixing everything costing 200k, you couldn’t make a gym for us instead for the residents!!!!
