Sample Language
I am a resident of the Parkchester Condominium community located in Bronx, NY. I am reaching out to you to receive guidance and assistance addressing the quality of life issues residents of Parkchester North and South Condominiums are facing. Residents living in the North and South Condominiums have contacted management to address the quality of life issues that exist in our community.
Below is a list of major ongoing quality of life issues:
Non-functioning elevators in several buildings, impacting all residents, including tenants with mobility issues, senior citizens, and tenants using wheelchairs and walkers.
Inoperable elevators in all commercial parking facilities, impacting residents, especially those with mobility issues.
Heat Issues boiler malfunctions multiple times throughout the winter, leaving tenants without heat for multiple days.
Garbage Disposal: producing hazardous conditions/fire hazards due to poor trash management, which attracts vermin.
Lack of Repairs/Maintenance in apartments and public areas of the complex.
Lack of transparency: Owners have no direct access to privately contact elected condominium board members.
Lack of fiscal responsibility: Outstanding complaints filed by residents resulting in massive fines. Fines can be viewed on the DOB and HPD sites.
Thank you in advance for your assistance.
