John Yee
John Yee, Chair of the Esplanade Board of Trustees, is a dedicated primary care physician who has been in practice for forty years. Smitten by its location, John moved into the Esplanade in March 1989 as one of its original owners. He noted that this property was formerly the home of the Squibb Pharmaceutical Company. The one word that comes to mind following my interview with John is earnest.
John was elected to the Board of Trustees six years ago. He stated that he was motivated to run as a candidate at a time when there were “a number of vacancies, and no one was interested in running.” John clearly is proud of the Esplanade, noting that we have a dedicated staff with minimal turnover. He takes seriously his responsibility to “maintain the building’s traditions and high standards” and to exercise his fiduciary responsibility to ensure that the Esplanade remains fiscally sound. He also is adamant that the building adhere to the ever-changing, comprehensive state laws governing the running of condominiums.
