The editorial brief
A field manual for New York condominium boards.
This edition is being built for directors, officers, committee leaders, and managers who need to move from the governing rule to a defensible operating decision. It will preserve the same practical-first structure, source discipline, and boardroom utility established by the published LRI Press handbooks.
Source foundation
New York condominium law, the declaration and bylaws, applicable corporate and local requirements, and relevant federal authority, all researched for condominium governance rather than borrowed from co-op practice.
What this edition is being built to resolve
Common elements and alterations
Maintenance allocation, access, alteration review, contractors, building systems, emergencies, and project controls.
Financial and capital planning
Common charges, collections, budgets, reserves, insurance, contracts, borrowing, assessments, and long-term work.
Rules, records, and disputes
Records, communications, enforcement, hearings, accommodations, complaints, litigation posture, and proportionate escalation.
This is the planned acquisition scope, not a final table of contents. The manuscript and chapter architecture will be developed and reviewed separately.
The release standard
Researched for this title. Built for return use.
Designed for directors who need to identify the board’s authority, structure a defensible process, and preserve a usable record for owners, managers, auditors, and counsel.
- 01
Research
Primary authorities and title-specific governing structures are captured, compared, and verified before legal propositions enter the manuscript.
- 02
Editorial build
Meeting-ready checklists, decision tables, timelines, operating sequences, and clearly labeled distinctions between law, prudent practice, and author judgment. The information design is developed with the writing, not applied after it.
- 03
Release acceptance
Print, PDF, EPUB, and web are reviewed as one edition system. The title publishes only after legal, editorial, accessibility, and production gates pass.
A released standard, carried forward
The series system is already in readers’ hands.
