As we are all aware, the past few weeks have been very trying with respect to the 32BJ negotiations. Thankfully, we were able to avoid a strike and are waiting for the new contract to be finalized and approved by the union workers. As part of our due diligence on this issue, our Executive Members have watched the negotiations from the sidelines and recently met with the Realty Advisory Board (RAB) President, Howard Rothschild.  We discussed the new contract and labor issues in general. It was a straightforward, serious, and lively discussion. Mr. Rothschild answered all our questions and responded to some of our concerns, especially on the issues that affect our budgets.  We would like to thank Howard Rothschild for his candor and time and look forward to working together more collaboratively with the RAB in future labor negotiations.
