MINUTES FROM MEETING BETWEEN REGATTA POINT &  ST GEORGE’S ON 16TH MAY 2014

ATTENDEES:
George Cross (Regatta Point Freehold Limited Director), Sean Chappell (St. George’s Project Director) and Malcolm Wood (St. George’s Land Director).

APOLOGISES:
Mo Bowyer (Regatta Point Resident),

MINUTES: (StG = St George’s RP= Regatta Point)

Work progressing well. Excavation for C1 imminent. Pile driving will be necessary to form protective wall around perimeter. Should not cause too much disturbance.

Block D (next to Regatta) & E – party wall agreement imminent as all work to explore ground has been completed. A lot of unexpected services were found and the local utility companies have been re-laying gas and electric.

StG assured that the next phase will be sprayed properly when required but soil is expected to be damp as below the water table. Regatta Point will be in contact if we require action over the dust levels.

Major issue of co-ordination of StG building work on block D and RP requirement to carry out works to strengthen Eastern wall. StG have determined the floor levels of each building and it will be possible to get contractors on site at StG as each floor is built in order to carry out Helifix remedial works to Regatta Point Eastern Wall. RP expressed their gratitude.

StG offered potential suppliers for RP roadside window tender.

StG have been in discussions with Hounslow Council over the implementation of gates at either end of RP/StG boarder. The council have agreed to the proposal.

Entire duration of development expected to last in to 2016.

Next meeting for Friday 13^th June at 08:30

On Friday the 14th of March George Cross (Director RPFL), Mo Bowyer (Regatta Point resident), Malcolm Wood (St. George’s Land Director) and Sean Chappell (St. George’s Snr.

The following are highlights of the meeting:

• Excavations for groundwork on block next to RP are due to start soon and will require the temporary closure of the footpath at times.  The white portacabins will be removed.
• Pile driving will cause vibrations, which are disturbing, but should not cause damage. 
• Prior to this soil will be removed for the excavations – water should be sprayed on during this time to minimise dust.  
• Co-ordination between StG and RPFL will be arranged via our surveyors in order to facilitate the work that is to be carried out on the Eastern wall of Regatta Point.
• StG have proposed installing gates at either end of the public pathway along the Eastern wall that would be locked at night.  St George’s have now formally submitted the proposal with Hounslow Council with the support of Regatta Point.
• The Fullers pub will be now opening in mid-Summer.
• Entire development not expected to finish until 2016.
