Assemblyman Luis Sepúlveda and
State Senator Rev. Ruben Diaz Sr. have scheduled a rally of Parkchester
owner-residents for the afternoon of Feb. 10, at 4:00 p.m., in front of
the management office to continue their protest against management and
the board’s plan to impose a 15+ percent monthly increase in common charges
assessed to Parkchester South condo owners. They will also announce plans
to file for an injunction to block imposition of the common charges hike,
with individual owners to be asked to contribute $15 for legal costs.
“The fact that repairs may be necessary throughout Parkchester South,” said Sepúlveda, “does not give management or the board carte blanche to do as they please and without any discussion impose draconian increases that will be devastating to the elderly, single families, the disabled, and others who are already struggling to keep up.”
Sepúlveda added that Parkchester South management and board “needs to be more accountable and to participate in meetings with the community and its elected officials.”
State Senator Rev. Ruben Diaz Sr. joined in support. “While Parkchester Management insists that they are operating with full transparency, it’s more than two months that I have been waiting for them to send me a copy of the projected budget for 2016,” said Diaz. “This sudden boost of more than 15 percent in the monthly maintenance burden is unaffordable and unacceptable for the families, seniors, and residents who never saw it coming.
“I also need to be very clear,” continued Diaz, “especially as a government official, that I refuse to partake in any closed-door meetings with Parkchester management. If management has something to say or to share, we all need to be able to hear what it is."
