FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

East New York Homeowners Association Inc.

We are the homeowners who have purchased homes from East Brooklyn Churches. Our community has a separate sewer line that feeds into the City sewer line. We are responsible for repairs to this sewer line. Consequently, membership in the organization is mandatory. This was an agreement made between the builders-East Brooklyn Churches and the City of New York. The Homeowners Association is responsible for collecting and managing the sewer funds. All Nehemiah Homeowners are automatically members of the Association when you purchase your Nehemiah home. The Association is governed by By-laws and rules and regulations. Board members are elected by the homeowners.

The Association is responsible for maintaining the common sewer line only. Please have a plumber identify where the problem lies.

If the problem is not in the common line the Association is not responsible for your repair.

What type of problems will the Association repair?

The Association will repair any breaks or blocks found in the common sewer line only. Breaks or other problems occurring in the line running from your home to the common sewer line are the responsibility of the homeowner.

What is the common line?

The common line is the community sewer line that runs across our properties. It runs parallel to the city sewer line. Breaks in the common line normally cost approximately $2,000 to $50,000 to repair. The Association is responsible for the maintenance and repair of this line. Homeowners must be up to date before any repairs are authorized.
