1105 Massachusetts Avenue Condominium Trust
Board of Trustees Meeting
June 25, 2026
The meeting of the 1105 Mass. Ave. Condominium Board of Trustees was held on Thursday, June 25, 2026, at 4 PM via zoom.
Present for the Board of Trustees were Laura Cohen, Brad Settle, Alexandra Solemano, Peter Sullivan, Bev Thornton and Bob Whitaker. Also present were Myra Miller and Elder Nunez.
PREVIOUS MONTHS MINUTES: The May 21, 2026, meeting minutes were approved as presented.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT AND ACCOUNT STATUS: Questions were asked in advance of the meeting. There were no other questions or comments.
BEUDO: There is a July 15th deadline to confirm our building category (Mixed use) and determine the baseline year for emission reduction. It seems like the default year is likely fine for us as we haven’t had significant variance year to year. Brad will submit the form for us.
VDA AND CLEARY: Cleary has now taken over maintenance of our elevators. They needed to come out for service as an elevator was down yesterday due to an issue with a door switch. The elevator was repaired and put back in service. We are going to schedule a kickoff meeting with VDA, Cleary, and the Board for the third week in August to align with vacation schedules.
TOILET VALVE REPLACEMENT: Finished replacing the F & G stack toilet valves (except for PH-D and 12G). Since we had already completed the D & E stack, we are halfway done with the building!
BOB’S FACILITY TOUR AND PROJECT MANAGER IDEAS: Bob and his architect cousin were given a tour of the building with Elder. We asked Bob’s cousin for advice on how to plan maintenance, and he recommended a comprehensive approach starting with an engineering assessment. He has recommended both project management and engineering firms which we will contact. Regarding a project manager for the special project. Bob recommended Phil Renzie – who is a property manager.
CLEANUP OF GREASE FROM RESTAURANTS
We are growing increasingly concerned with the accumulation of grease on the roof and in the common hallway containing the gas meters. The grease in the common hallway has been cleaned up, but we want to make sure there is a permanent solution. We need to make sure Hodan deals with Boston Burger about the grease on the roof. We will keep a paper trail to document the grease on the roof in case there is a fire or it affects the warranty on the roof. Myra will contact Boston Burger directly and, if needed, we can also call the city to inspect and push resolutions. We will have a meeting to discuss this issue with Hodan (potentially Dan Wolf), the board, and the restaurant before the next board meeting.
OTHER MAINTENANCE ITEMS: We need to replace one storage tank in hot water room, get an estimate for plow damage on the parking deck surface and repairs to garage concrete, plumbing estimate for another main shut off in compactor room which needs to be repaired now that we have limited access to the shutoff in University Market due to an uncooperative new owner, and overnight work in the shoe store for the C & D stack shut off. Ray is currently investigating a leak in Seizi’s kitchen which appears to be a 4” main water line and would require a whole building shutdown to repair.
NEXT MEETING DATE: We will meet a week earlier than the usual schedule on July 23rd (3rd Thursday)
OTHER QUESTIONS: Alexandra asked about kitchen valve shut offs – it is not part of a larger building project and will remain a unit owner responsibility.
Respectfully submitted,
ELN Management
