FEBRUARY 4 Message from
the Board President
Well, we got through January, which was
a pretty nasty month weather-wise. A bitterly
cold stretch came earlier than usual,
and temperatures since then have been
jumping all over the place. I’d like to
take this opportunity to remind everyone
to have your windows and radiator
valves checked if you’re having a problem
with heat. Please do not fiddle with
them yourself—call your concierge to
schedule to have one of our staff come
and take a look. And, of course, it’s not
too late to have your window air conditioner
removed…we still have quite a long way to go this season…
and it will be removed and reinstalled at no charge.
Speaking of heat, as of this writing the coat drive is underway,
and we’re seeing a really nice turnout of donations. If you haven’t
seen the notice, please bring a new or gently-used clean coat
to your lobby where a box has been set up for contributions.
Thanks to the Quality of Life Committee for organizing this effort
and to everyone for donating to this very worthwhile cause.
The ongoing violation issue with the DOB continues to move forward,
although at a snail’s pace. Merritt Engineering (the engineers
on our balcony project) have been doing their due diligence and is
scheduling another meeting with the DOB to settle the matter; we
do not have a date yet for when that meeting will happen, but have
been told that it will be soon. As always, stay tuned. In the meantime,
I remind everyone that it is imperative to keep your balconies
clear of any items that interfere with egress to the fire escape stairs.
If you’re not sure whether an object would be considered an obstruction,
please contact the Management Office.
As you’ve seen in the posted notices, the renovation to the 01
Community Room will begin shortly. Carpet tiles have already
been ordered and will replace the old vinyl tile. But before the
carpet can be put down, the floor has to be leveled; we will be receiving
bids for that work as soon as the floor is exposed. The goal,
of course, is to have the room re-opened as quickly as possible. In
the meantime, please use the 21 Small Community Room.
Finally, new this month is “Cryder Point Community News,”
a column featuring news and stories from and about our shareholders
and staff. I am hoping that readers will enjoy this piece
and that everyone will want to share their good news items with
the rest of the community. If it takes off, this may become a regular
addition to our newspaper (so please write in!).
Till next time, Jill Davis
