Huntington Lake Section One Needs Transparency

  Howard Laufer (Building 7) Candidate for Huntington Lakes Section 1 Board of Directors Thank you for taking the time to read this short Bio about me and why I am asking for your vote to become your representative as a Board Member.   I used to live up north in Whitestone Queens NY.   I moved to Huntington Lakes several years ago mostly to look after my parents who live in Section 5.   It seems every day there is another doctor that they need to go to and I am glad that I am here and able to help them.

These boards also worked through personnel issues including pay, hiring, and firing.   In addition, I have an education allowing me to understand management issues and work to solve them. I h...

Levine has already served on the board for two years as Treasurer and Chairman of Buildings and Elevators during that time.  We stand for transparency and sound management practices which we feel go hand in hand. Real transparency encourages good management and service to owners; good management is comfortable with transparency and owner participation. There is a "slate" of 7 candidates running for the board. Their focus is on collegiality and doing things the "Section 1" way regardless of the state law, our by-laws, or good management practices. We think that collegiality is excellent, but fulfilling our fiduciary responsibility to owners is more important . We also think the "Section 1" way of doing things has not been great for owners. It has led to bad budgets with resulting deficits, reduction of res...

Welcome! This is a place to find out about Huntington Lakes Section 1 Association issues. You can get straight information with sources to check things out for yourself. Transparency, honesty, and professionalism are what we want from our Association. This is a way for you to be informed about what is going on based on information you can verify. Board elections are coming up March 21, 2023.  There is an information session to ask board candidates questions on March 7, 2023 in the Section 1 Clubhouse at 10 am. That will be one way to learn about the candidates. You should get your ballot sent in by March 14 unless you will be dropping it off at the Annual meeting on March 21.  More posts will be coming out discussing Section 1 issues and items that may concern Section 1 owners.
