Dear East River Cooperators,

During Hurricane Sandy both East River and Hillman cooperators had a very difficult time as did the rest of Lower Manhattan and other parts of the City. And one must learn from these experiences how to better service the cooperators.

Both East River and Hillman Boards have approved working with engineering and construction firms to deal with the purchase of generators. We have already rented one generator that will remain on site for us to handle any future emergencies.

Each year at the East River Annual Meeting, I ask cooperators who wish to meet with me to contact Assistant Manager, Galina Palis in the Management office to make an appointment. My staff and I are available to meet with anyone wishing to discuss issues related to building management.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Sincerely yours,

Heshey Jacob
General Manager
