Can anyone attend this meeting? Or do you have to be a member? Thanks
ReplyDeleteThe meeting is open to the public.
ReplyDeleteOne caveat—up a flight of stairs, no elevator and handicapped access.
ReplyDeleteGenerally I am on the side of handicapped access and think all meetings open to the public should have handicapped access. But, brownstone buyers will have to deal with stairs unless they have $150k leftover to put into an elevator, so I can somewhat understand overlooking this. It's unfortunate, however.
ReplyDeleteFirst of all, I meant in general. This is where they hold the meetings and I would love to attend on a regular basis but can’t because of my son. Nor can the elderly who are infirm.
ReplyDeleteI own a brownstone. We live on the garden and parlour floors and there is a chairlift, which I don't use but nice to know it’s there, connecting the two floors.
But that’s really beside the point. Public meetings should be accessible to the public and a lot of people have trouble with stairs for one reason or another.
so who went to the meeting and how was it?
