We can figure out what they are doing even when they go to great lengths to keep the community in the dark. Good leadership does not have to keep people in the dark to look like the smartest person in the room. The smartest people are in the room are the ones who see what is going on, have ideas and solutions to put in action and from this thread that is clearly the community and not the corrupt TA, Dan and their gang.<br /><br />Just because we were not given the appropriate information does not make us stupid. We see the corrupt plan and we have solutions which even the very very few politicians who would want to do the right things couldn't figure out. <br /><br />The Brookfield / Tishman <br />Speyer / Paul Weiss Moelis / Garodnick - Kane plan was designed without Tenant consensus and involvement. It is illegal, unethical, fraudulent, corrupt to the core. If it weren't they could do it without all the Secrecy and Silence by city Agencies. <br /><br />How many PCVST complaints is the DHCR ignoring and did DOB cover up?<br /><br />Crimes are being Committed on this Community by a Corrupt alliance of private business and with government Cooperation who are treating PCV ST like a Commodity in a Corporate deal. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1837176580996082182.post-29422845572330903182015-02-01T09:23:38.518-05:002015-02-01T09:23:38.518-05:00>>So having the ability to jack up rents by ...>>So having the ability to jack up rents by 20% after students leave needs to be taken away RETROACTIVELY.

These poorly designed regulations result in elderly widows alone in 3 bedroom apartments while young families with 2+ kids squeeze into one bedrooms. No income requirements and lax residency requirements (enforced without penalties) are just a couple of the reasons why these regulations can't be defended. So developers chip away while liberal politicians look away. It's over folks and you can blame it all on the regulations that most here seem to hold so dearly (in many cases because there are no income checks) so you've thrown away decades of $$$ on rent and the result is no control, no say and lost neighborhoods.
