Even 1 or 2 good board members who are tough can do a lot of good for the coop
After the recent boiler repair, there is almost no water pressure for the hot waterin our bathtub in 9805. I will call the office tomorrow. Anyone else have this problem?
To answer an earlier question, Ron can be reached by email to ParkCityOneVoice@Yahoo.Com
As for many of the recent comments on this site, each of you will find your answer in the ABOUT US tab of this website. I also encourage you to view the Certificate of Incorporation (Page 4 “Section 4. Resignation and Removal”) posted in the DOCUMENTS tab of this website – if pages do not open, look in Downloads and click on the file.
Basically, with a meeting called for the specific purpose of removing members from the Board of Directors, a shareholder majority can remove one, two, three, OR ALL members of the Board (it is stated as such in Section 4 of our By Laws). The big question is “What then?”
We already tried putting 9 inexperienced shareholders on the Board and, in my personal opinion, we only managed to empower a lawyer to lead them by their noses for two-plus years!
Going back to “What then?” – again, in my personal opinion – we have to start with a new lawyer from a different law firm and if the entire Board must be removed to accomplish that then – so be it!
It’s very distressing to go on Zillow and see how many people in the complex are trying to sell and how long some things are on the market even after big price drops. It seems like half the listings for sale in rego park are in our complex.
Putting big desks for the security was a waste of money making a big new office for David so he can sit like a king is a waste of our money who the heck is he. Greedy person robbing all of us! What kind of person does a renovation for his nasty self as the first project which he probably spent around 250k for including all the new equipment. Who the heck is he to have a brand new office like that. Who approved this?! Rose? Zarina best friend!!
Organizing a protest outside the office makes 0 sense. Just talk to your neighbors, express your disappointment, and don’t vote for these people next time
The thieves just sent a letter 4.7% maintenance increase. Time to get Zarina out. We need to organize a protest outside of the building. Ron how can I get into contact with you?
I passed the below information to members of OneVoice Tenants Association and thought I’d share it here. I hope it’s helpful to those with billing issues.

————————————————————
I went through my last 7 months of 2023 maintenance bills and, using the kHw usage divided into the dollar amount charged, I came up with what looks like we’ve already been paying a variable rate.
May 2023 reads .1698870056cents per kHw {that’s almost 17 cents} to simplify the next 6 months, I’m only going to use the first 4 digits:
June 2023 = .1738 (again, these are all cents per kHw not dollars)
July 2023 = .1647
August = .1831
September = .1953
October = .2218
November = .2457
December = .2385
While it may appear the rate is getting higher – I spot checked some 2022 rates, as follows:
May 2022 = .1922
September 2022 = .2435
December 2022 = .2235
Lastly, do what I do. On the 20th day of every month check your meter and write the usage number on your wall calendar (it helps when you use ALEXA reminders – or SIRI ). Then, when you receive your maintenance bill showing the prior month’s usage you can compare it and should be within 50kHw of your calendar entry.
To December 1, 2023 at 2:31 pm
If that’s the case then the management should review the expected process of how to resolve delayed billing as outlined on the NY DPS website
in reply to the below comment: Even though they don’t regulate the company our management uses which is amps elemco, they are able to file a case for investigation. You have to call and ask for sub meter department who deal with it and ask for Mr Rick
You need to obtain a copy of an electric statement from the management office, and find an account number there and your individual meeter number.
This information you need in order to file a complaint
Electric company is not responding to phone calls and messages. So better deal with dps, they will help
Hi I called the dps website for the electric submeter they said they don’t regulate the company our management uses which is amps elemco
On the 20th day of every month I check my meter and I write the number on my calendar. I match it against my monthly bill and its usually very close. Its easier to do if you have a Siri or Alexa to remind you. Just say “set a reminder for the 20th day of every month” “check electricity” “10:45pm”
Once you have it all on your calendar its easier to challenge those errors.
here is information regarding electric charges
file a personal case to investigate your meter, to know if it’s broken or not!
https://dps.ny.gov/file-complaint
It’s better call them and speak to a representative than filing online!
you will have to provide your account number,which can be found on your maintenance statement
They will open a case for you, and will come to your apartment and check your meter and readings
during this time you don’t have to pay anything for electric charges. They will do an investigation
Thats what the representative told us
good luck
Rose is a liar she needs to go out the real president is David
People . electricity charges for the month of december- you need to check your 6months electric charges and compare it. Some people got $200, some people got $180, some got $50, etc and charges are not correct
Something is wrong -management is claiming that meter is broken in every building. Very strange i think it has also to do with elevators, and now they want to switch to a con edison, while getting some money from new electric company and charge us more.
I would pay only what i usually pay for the month of September/October, i highly doubt that they will credit people back next month.
I would cancel autopay for the month of december
