Auditor Presentation
Ralph Picker of Picker and Associates made a presentation regarding the Association’s audited financial statements for Park Tower Condo Association’s 2020/2021 fiscal year. He said he was giving an “unqualified/clean opinion”, and stated that compared to other large and prestigious skyline buildings, the state of the Association’s financial health is “above the grade”, and the Association and Board should be “commended for the work you’ve done.” Particularly so given the challenge of navigating through the pandemic.
