Non union buildingFeb 14, 2021

Happy Valentine's Day to All!
I have a question regarding a small NYC coop building.

What steps are required to change for a coop building from union to non union?
Can board purely decide this change?

Thank you for your insight and advice

nonunion super - REAPLLC Feb 16, 2021

As a manager, I have successfully removed the union from several buildings (and added them to others)...
Is there a current super working in the union position, or is there a vacancy?
if there is a super in the position, is there an issue with him?
is the cause strictly financial?
other?

REAPLLC - What process or procedure did you go through or have to follow to remove the union? How did you handle the loss of benefits once the buildings were no longer part of the union? How long ago did the conversion take place and how has retention been since the buildings were no long union?

Thanks!

I would love to hear also how you got rid of a union in a co-op. My understanding is that union members would need to do that.
