As you might have imagined, getting through this terrible winter has had somewhat of a strain on our operating budget. We are now in the process of compiling information and probably will not know until March where we stand, and how much over budget we are, due to the use of the rock salt and calcium chloride, the overtime for our Maintenance staff in cleaning up the snow and the additional fuel usage that we encountered during January and February. I will update you further on these issues in about a month when we can make that determination. Gas Conversion: We are hoping to have an additional nine buildings on gas heat by the time you read this article. It is imminent that the final five buildings will be getting converted to gas during the month of March. In my opinion the gas conversion project has been very successful. The mechanics of the job were done expeditiously and efficiently with no change orders / unforeseen charges. SEA WAL REPAIR: I would like to thank our Board member, Steve Young, Property Manager, Margaret Costello and Attorney, Geoffrey Mazel, for arranging a meeting with Congressman, Steve Israel and Council Member, Paul Vallone, to evaluate the status of the storm damaged sea wall by B#32. It is our hope that through their involvement and influence, we will be able to obtain grant money in order to repair the damaged sea wall. Snow Clean up: Once again I would like to thank our entire Maintenance Department crew for the work they have done during the continuing snow storms that we have encountered during February. As always, I would like to thank you for your continued support throughout the year. TACKLING THE ISUES EDITOR’S NOTE: This is in response to a shareholder’s inquiry to the office of Councilmember Paul Vallone: I am replying to your email in regard to the QM2 and the Q15 bus issues you encountered a few weeks back during the storm. I just spoke to a community affairs agent at the MTA and they gave me a few helpful tips on finding out delays for certain bus routes. First and foremost, you can access all delays for buses and trains at http://new.mta.info/. If you see on the top left hand side, under Service Status, you can select the Bus tab. Under this tab, you can select the Q1-Q113 lines or the QM1-QM25 lines. When you click on the individual line, it will give you delay updates for the lines that are currently experiences delays. Additionally, in the middle on the home page at http://new.mta.info/ , you’ll see a Customer Self Service option. Under this title, you can click on “Things you can do online, anytime.” Once you clicked on “Things you can do online, anytime” you will want to click on the “Get free e-mail and text alerts”. You can receive both email and text updates on certain bus routes that you use daily to avoid future incidents. Lastly, you can use the http://www.511ny.org/ Default.aspx website to track both bus and train delays. You can also call the MTA Customer Service number at 718-330-1234. As always, if there is anything that either I or my staff can do for you in the future, please do not hesitate to contact me at my office at 718-619-8611.
