if the coop bylaws allow for it, a new vote is critical. I believe there was much more support in favor of the sale than people originally thought, and that's something we should build on.

Yes vote - F line facing the new building and it is worth it.

I endorse a revote. Our bylaws require a 2/3 majority which i think will be possible with further negotiation with the developers and better transparency from the board.

I began as a firm no, and ended up as a firm yes. If they are building anyway, we should benefit. I'm also tired of construction and sick over the changes in our neighborhood, but I hope we can revisit this vote.

I am in favor of air rights and against maintenance fees and subletting fees the way they are.

The board should immediately seek expertise to partner with reputable interested developers to build income generating structures using our air rights. With the passive income stream our maintenance should be minimized and our property values will increase. It makes no sense to sit on unused air rights.

Senior citizens & fixed income individuals will suffer the most. Where will we get the $$$ for increases & assessments? Selfish, selfish, selfish.

A financially struggling cooperative turns down $54 million because 17 extra stories will impede several apartments’ views. Never mind the elderly & others who cannot afford the steep maintenance rises & assessments Seward Park will need to levy to meet escalating taxes & much needed repairs.

We need to change the bylaws and fulfill the will of the majority. When the building goes up, so will our bills, causing our values to go down — all because a misguided minority was able to dictate our fate.

We need to make this happen, because the imminent maintenance increases will make living here unaffordable for our residents on a fixed income.

I agree wholeheartedly with the majority of shareholders seeking to
pass a very necessary referendum.
I wish to include my name in the petition to get the resolution passed.

Please move this forward. The minority should not negatively affect the majority decision to approve the project.
