Hello to fellow coop board members,

Looking at doing some J-51 projects now that it seems like the program is being extended. Our managing agent has recommended an attorney who specializes in assisting with the application, but their fee is 25% of the approved abatement, paid up front (when application is approved). This seems steep, but maybe is typical?? Curious what other boards have experienced, and if you have any J-51 consultants/attorneys who you recommend? Thanks!

I am trying to use the CSV import extension to create records.  These records have a linked field to another record.  I am trying to populate the linked field via the CSV file, but I cannot seem to make it work.  I am attempting to create new records, not “merge” records.  Two immediate issues:

1. On the mapping preview, the linked field does not appear in the record creation preview, even when the toggle is on.
2. If I could get it to appear, I am not sure what info Airtable wants me to upload to successfully link the record. I tried the RecordID (pulled from the URL per Airtable’s guide) but that didn’t work.

There has to be a way to populate linked record fields via a CSV upload? Thanks!

Wondering if any arborists here can explain why there was a huge leaf drop a couple of days ago (this is before last nights storm, just when it started to get hot). Tons of green leaves all over the sidewalks/streets in Crown Heights and BedStuy. These were new green leaves. Neighbors and I have never seen anything like it.
