Where can I direct any complaint about a possibility of committing a crime by the board or the management company?
Are there any institutions controlling the action of the board or the management company?
What can we do when we see that something is wrong?
Any ideas?
Unfortunately, Alvin's answer is incorrect. The Attorney General will only handle disputes involving the sponsor. Once the sponsor is no longer in control, the only legal way is through the court system. This is expensive and time consuming. I am working with several groups to get an "Ombudsman Bill" passed which would give co op and condo owners a government agency the ability to hear non sponsor major complaints. We need owners to get on board by discussing this bill and putting pressure on your State elected officials to back this most important bill. It was introduced in the Senate by Liz Krueger.The more owners we get to push this the more likely we can get it passed. We need everyone to make this a priority if there is any hope of getting the State to help us. Contack Senator Krueger's office in Manhatten for more information.
