LETS DEAL WITH THE FACTS: THE EMP STUDY GROUP
DEFLECTS THE BLAME FOR THE SAD STATE OF
AFFAIRS HERE AT EMP.
Surely, they know that there are empty apartments on almost every floor. By keeping these apartments vacant ("warehousing"), we are losing maintenance payments.
Lack of maintenance dollars means less money to operate with.
EMP is falling apart around us. However, the EMP Study Group profiteers don't care—the leaders are rich and many of their followers have no intention of staying here!
We who want to stay here will be left "holding the bag" with huge mortgages and major repair bills. The EMP Study Group profiteer leaders can pay whatever huge assessments and maintenance increases will be required and many followers will "hit the road" with their windfall!!
LET'S DEAL WITH THIS FACT:
In the last 20 years, HPD has only mandated an occupant who is (*) receiving a "deep subsidy" ie: Section 8, Rap, etc to move to a smaller apartment based upon the rules of the subsidy program. As long as household is paying the rent HPD does not mandate a transfer". (Available via filing for under the Freedom of Information Act).
*There is a typo in my previous just-sent e-mail today. Only recipients of a "deep" subsidy are mandated to move to a smaller •, apartment based upon compliance with the subsidy program. This (also) does not effect SCRIE recipients = o us = " Sony for the confusion. Smith, Elaine
