The Residents’ Manual has been prepared to acquaint residents with essential and useful information about the 7-11 East 13th St. Tenants’ Corp. (the “Co-op”). It is an amendment and restatement of all prior drafts of the House Rules (the last restatement was in 2003). The terms “Shareholders’ Manual” and “House Rules” are used interchangeably throughout this document. The House Rules were approved by the Board of Directors of the Co-op pursuant to Paragraph 13 of the Proprietary Lease issued to all shareholders. These House Rules supplement the Proprietary Lease.
Shareholders must comply with these House Rules. Failure to comply can result in action by the Board, which in the case of serious or repeated violations could include fines or revocation of the shareholder’s Proprietary Lease and eviction from the Co-op. Each shareholder is responsible for the behavior of any person inhabiting his or her apartment, whether family members, friends, guests or subtenants. Thus, each shareholder should be familiar with the terms of the Proprietary Lease and of these House Rules, which together set forth the duties and obligations between the shareholders and the Co-op.

Note: According to the proprietary lease, the House Rules may be added to, amended, or repealed at any time by resolution of the Board of Directors.
