On October 2, 2017, the Gateway Plaza Tenants Association had its Annual Meeting and Election. The event drew 250 residents, a standing room only assembly, a great sign of strong tenant interest in issues related to life at Gateway. Our speakers included former Senator Daniel Squadron, Public Advocate Leticia James, Manhattan Borough President Gale Brewer, City Council Member Margaret Chin, among others.
We were grateful to have had an unprecedented pool of highly qualified volunteers who would like to serve on the Gateway Plaza Tenants Association Board. After the ballots were tabulated, the results were as follows (the number of votes registered for each nominee is recorded to the right of their name):
Glenn Plaskin: 101
Karlene Wiese: 90
Rosalie Joseph: 85
Audrey Comisky: 84
Marc Gorman: 80
Shannon Mccue: 80
Steve Kessler: 72
Gail Vinisky: 67
Michael Boydston-White: 57
Lawrence Emert: 57
Honey Berk: 53
Mark Grossman: 52
Robin Forst: 47
Roseann Caputo: 45
Pat Gray: 43
Sarah Cassell: 40
Bruce Katz: 35
Jonathan Jossen: 30
Mia Cusumano: 28
Anthony Sepe: 28
Zach Humphries: 25
Ava Garrett: 23
As Glenn Plaskin decided to step down from the Board after many years of service, and one of the newly-elected members moved out of Gateway:
The GPTA president is now Karlene Wiese, who is backed up by first vice president Rosalie Joseph and second vice president Honey Berk. The board’s secretary is Robin Forst, and the treasurer is Shannon McCue. The Association’s board now also includes Sarah Cassell, Audrey Comisky, Larry Emert, Marc Gorman, Pat Gray, Howard Grossman, Bruce Katz, Steven Kessler, and Gail Vinisky.
We look forward to working with you!
