Fourth-generation property owner Aaron Sirulnick has been tapped as the new chairman of the Rent Stabilization Association, the statewide landlord trade group, Crain’s reported.
His predecessor, Arnold Goldstein, had served in the role for 28 years, having built the landlord entity from a quasi-public body into a private industry group. Sirulnick of P. Sirulnick & Son/Ditmas Management Corporation, which has offices in Long Island and Midtown, warned that the affordable housing stock in the city is deteriorating “without a meaningful plan and genuine partnership” between owners and political leaders, the newspaper said.
To remedy this, he proposed working with City Hall and the state legislature to develop more opportunities for housing development, the report said. [Crain’s] –Mark Maurer
