Mark Zeltser is Running to the Board of Aquarius

Greetings Fellow Owners!                                                                                                   December 2025

My name is Mark Zeltser and I am running for a seat on your 2026 Board of Directors here at Aquarius Condominium.  I believe I can be an asset to the association and I am asking for one of your five votes this upcoming election. I have been an owner here for approximately 10 years, with a unit in each tower, so I am very familiar with this place. I hold business degrees and have started my own companies. I also have a background in property management and an eye for numbers.

I know all the employees and all the employees know me. As a board member, I welcome and enjoy collaboration with all. We have a beautiful property here at Aquarius. Nestled cozily between the ocean and intracoastal waterway. I think we need to do more to upkeep our home. There are several areas I hope to address as a member of your board on that front. Too many small eyesores all around our common areas, aside from the obvious construction work at the moment, that are very unpleasant to me as an owner who likes to entertain guests and has pride in his home. This is a luxury property and it is not being upkept as such. Some items that I would like to address as a member of your board:

♦ Repair unsightly damages to walls on Lobby level, both in the main lobby area and also leading to the elevators. These are high traffic areas that take a good amount of abuse from foot traffic and should be taken care of more often to keep our building looking beautiful.

♦ Organization at the Front Desk area needs much improvement, looks more like a shipping warehouse than a concierge and security desk at a luxury building on the beach.

♦ Organize the valet area for better efficiency and comfort of owners. Too often it is jammed up when it does not have to be.

♦ End the beach door saga. It has been in disrepair and unsightly for too long.

♦ Secure, Organize, and Monetize the West Lot across the street. I brought a plan to the current board members 3-4 years ago now to do this, when they first came on the board. It was not done, costing the association 100k+ from lack of implementation. To get the changes you want, you need a seat at the table. Our West Lot, which is not an overflow lot as if it is an afterthought, enables our vehicles a place to go that cannot park in the garage for whatever reason. Many people have second cars and there are larger vehicles that would not fit in the garage, which is fine because this is your home, and you need somewhere to securely park at your home. Owners should have somewhere to park an oversized vehicle. I don’t seek to restrict owners when I can accommodate them. The West Lot offers us owners this benefit and should not be neglected or sold off.  Currently, It is trespassed daily by nearby people with their dogs to use the toilet, has become a locals fishing hole, and is generally unwatched by the building security. They walk back there, take a few photos but check nothing. They are in and out in 2 minutes. No organization, as contractors are allowed to park their large work vehicles right alongside owners personal vehicles. Owners are forced to park across the street while employees park in the garage. There needs to be an area there for valet, another for employees, and another for contractors, without molesting the owners cars on the other side. Also, build a fence and monetize some spaces. I am also against allowing an outside entity to take over the west lot property. It will be years of construction with no benefit to us owners. We owned the land that our neighbor Trump building is on and sold it. Do you have any benefits now besides loss of water view and unit value less than could have been? Same will be for every west facing unit with intracoastal views if we allow it.

I Created an email where owners can reach out to discuss anything with me personally. Mark.Aquarius2751@gmail.com. I have more to add but I am out of space here, contact me at that email if you would like to discuss anything.

Thank You,

Mark Zeltser, 301N
