WE LISTEN
This is the department that handles your questions and complaints.This
is also the department that provides you with important phone
numbers and links to applications and other resources.
We will need your name, address and telephone number, a
description of the problem, and, if applicable, the location
where the problem exists.
We will contact the appropriate agency and request that
they take whatever action necessary in order to address the
problem. If the problem persists, you should let us know.

ENERGY
CONCERNS
After this summer's heat wave Con
Edison reminds all New Yorkers to conserve energy as much
as possible. Even something as simple as raising the setting
on the thermostat by 2 degrees can make a big difference
in citywide energy consumption. As winter approaches, we encourage
all residents to be mindful of their energy usage. The following
is a list of suggested measures that can be taken to reduce
energy use:
- Turn off non-essential perimeter lighting. This is the
single most effective peak load emergency conservation
measure you can take. It has the secondary benefit of reducing
the air conditioning even if some task lighting is required.
This is an important step.
- Turn off non-essential outdoor lighting.
- Turn off other lights and systems that are not needed,
especially in unoccupied spaces and meeting rooms.
- If you have computers, use the Energy Star power management
feature that almost all computers have today. This causes
the computer to go to “sleep” when not in use.
- Increase the set-point on your air conditioning by a
few degrees. (Systems vary, so this may mean different
steps depending on the system).
