Please pardon the delay in posting any information about what happened at the tenants meeting. I've had family in town since the meeting and am only now taking the time to write something. I don't intend this post to be "minutes" of the meeting - rather, I just want to give folks a sense of how it went and what's happening now.
We had discussions both about what works well and doesn't work so well right now in the building. From the 14 folks in the meeting, there was definitely both positive and negative feedback - for example, people had great things to say about maintenance in their individual apartments, but were disappointed in general maintenance items in the building, for example the elevators. We really looked at what is needed moving forward - and the one thing that stood out is improved communication between tenants and management.
The first obvious step to support that intention is to open up the dialogue in a meeting with both tenants and management included, so that everyone can hear everyone else's concerns, and we can all work together to come up with solutions that make sense. I will be working with Melanie this coming week to set that up!
