Board of Trustees Meeting

April 23, 2026

 

The meeting of the 1105 Mass. Ave. Board of Trustees was held on Thursday, April 23, 2026 at 4 PM via Zoom.

Present for the Board of Trustees were Brad Settle, Bev Thornton, Alexandra Solemano, John Giannacopoulos.

Also in attendance were Elder Nunez, Myra Miller and Robert Whittaker

 

PREVIOUS MONTHS MINUTES: The minutes of the March 19, 2026 meeting were approved as presented.

 

OPEN BOARD POSITION; There was a motion to appoint Bob Whittaker to the Board.  All approved.  Bob accepted the appointment.   Bob will fill the vacancy created by Rick leaving.  The Board thanks Marge Mulkerin for coming forward to help on the Board.

 

BUDGET: There was discussion about some of the numbers proposed.  We are thinking about 4% increase and also $5 increase in parking rates.  Letters have to go out by June 1 with new fees.   There was a question about the move in/out fees.  After Myra researches this and sends it to the Board we will finalize the budget via email before the next meeting. 

Bev would like to see us get moving on the mezzanine level tiles.  Brad suggested getting past the elevator project first.

Cleary Elevator –we have not heard from them after they mentioned coming in to do some measurements.  Myra will contact them and see when he wants to come in for measurements. (PS they wrote right after the meeting and actually are coming in on Tuesday, April 28th)

 

TOILET STACK: We worked on one stack, but did not get into 100% of the units for various reasons.  3 were omitted because they did not have compatible plumbing, or we were not granted access and also did not have a key.

 

F STACK:   We are currently working on the F stack kitchens.  We started on the 3rd floor and were going to stop at the top of the 6th floor.  We could not find a good pipe to connect to on the 6th and had to open up and continue into the 7th floor unit.  We finished 7G and connected at the bottom of the 8th floor.  (This stack is F units up to the 6th floor and then G units above because of the 3BR units in 2-6)

 

BEUDO UPDATES: The City made very few edits to their rules/guidelines.  We are still a mixed use building and it messes up our ratio of commercial versus residential.  The next action is an appeals process.  The City will help us apply this rule and they can change the rules to extend the time to comply for us.

 

NEXT MEETING DATE: May 21st (before Memorial Day holiday.) 4 PM via zoom
