If you have any issues you would like to bring up with the board, there is an open homeowners forum before hand. The meetings usually take place in the lobby or in the management office.
I plan on attending and giving the board members a reminder that while we are evaluating such things as carpeting the entryway from the garage and “beautifying” the lobby – there is a very real chance that at this time next year we may be facing a significant number of units which are either in foreclosure or are owned by absentee owners. In either event, we will not be getting association dues from those units – so it might be a good idea to keep the purse strings tied for a little while…
(not to mention we are in an old building and have already had a dozen elevator repairs, a new chiller, a new boiler, a new exit gate, and more unexpected repairs in our first year)
Maybe I am just sensitive because my dues are $496 and I am really really hoping against all odds that they don’t break the $500 mark anytime soon?
