In a vote of 58/42% the current board was saved from being recalled.  While still a close call, the right decision was made tonight.  It will likely take months or even years to heal the wounds, because this was one divisive meeting!

As I posted earlier, Gallery Tower had a petition to remove the current board, and replace it with a new one.

One of the main reasons for all of this has to do with maintenance of the building, or lack thereof.

As of January 1st, a new management company was selected to manage Gallery Tower.  One of the first things that happened was, Gittleman removed the blinders of the home owners.  Showed them what was wrong with the building, and what they needed to do to correct the problems.

This irritated some people in the building, who felt nothing was wrong, and nothing needed to be done.  I've been told by more than one person of absolute atrocities back in the hey days of the old boards/management company.  Financials being kept from residents, bids for contracts not available for view, the list goes on...

I really hope this is a turning point for Gallery Tower.  I know there will be a lot of hard work ahead for the board, home owners, and management company, but I believe Gallery Tower is heading in the right direction for a much better future.
