Lift B out of order

Some residents may already be aware that Lift B is out of order.  This is due to a failure of the motor/pump combination.  The engineers are expected to investigate the precise details of the fault today (Saturday) and will order any replacement parts on Monday.

Unfortunately, we do not know how quickly these parts can be delivered and fitted but we are pressing for the repairs to be completed as soon as possible.

We will let you know dates when we have them.

 

Residents’ Briefing Summary

Thank you to all those who attended the Annual Residents’ Briefing on the 13th of December.  It was a great opportunity for the Directors to get some feedback and for ideas to be exchanged.

The main actions that were noted are:

  • The window design needs to be kept simple and the vertical design is preferred
  • The windows project as a whole needs to keep a tight rein on costs
  • Can we explore the costs of improving the ventilation in the gym refurbishment
  • Can we explore the idea of a small fridge and/or tea making facilities in the guest rooms

A copy of the slides that were presented can be found here…

Disposal of Christmas Trees

Now we know that you’ve only just put the things up – but when it comes time to take your Christmas Tree down, in the new year, we have arranged for them to be collected and disposed of on behalf of Regatta Point.

This facility is only available if you leave the trees in car park space sixty-four (64) on Tuesday the 3rd or Tuesday the 10th of January.

Please do not leave trees in the bin cupboards as they will not be automatically collected and we will be forced to use the CCTV to identify culprits and charge for their disposal.

Directors Meeting Minutes

Directors’ Meeting 28th September 2016

The Directors of Regatta Point Freehold Limited met for a regular meeting in order to discuss various matters arising in the running of the building. The following are highlights of the discussions. 

  • HML Shaw are implementing a new way of working in order to improve the service given to RP. Joshim Ahmed will now take on many of the day to day task from Lyndsey and work more closely with Oscar.
  • HML Shaws to pursue service charge debtors rigorously.
  • The Service Charge budget for next year is to be frozen at this year’s level as operational expenditure is on target and under control.
  • The standard Reserve Fund is also to be held at the previous year’s level. However, an additional bill is to be issued for the windows project (see next).
  • After an extended review and taking notice of professional advice, it was decided to move ahead with the Roadside Windows Replacement Project. HML are to issue Section 20 notices and our surveyor to start the tender process.  Formal consultation with owners will commence asap and take several months.  The project work is likely to start in Spring/Summer of next year.  More details will be contained in a letter – to be issued soon.
  • PLEASE NOTE THE ANNUAL RESIDENTS BRIEFING WILL BE ON TUESDAY THE 13TH DECEMBER IN THE LOBBY
