    I was wondering if anyone could answer the following questions for me?


    Has anyone lived in an apartment complex where Residents Committees taken over their Managment Company directorship?
    If so, how are they find it and what was involved in the transfer of directors, timeframes etc?
    Where is the demarkation line from what the Council should be looking after in their estates and what is covered by the Management Company/Agent.
    Have the Council taken over their reletive estates yet and if so, how long did it take from completeion of the site to take over?
    Has any of the estates got a playground proposed or already in force, can they advise on both aspects example if proposed are the majority in agreement or opposed? if oppossed how are you lobying your campaign and what responses have you had? If already in place who is managing the playground and taking responsibility for the maintance and litigation?
    With your current Agent do you have the option to pay your managment fee by Direct Debit or Standing order?

    At the moment there is a group of us trying to sort out various issues in our apartment complex and any help in the above would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks

    Assumming the estate is privately built and has a management company (whether run by the residents or not), the council's responsibility ends at the gate (whether there is an actual gate of not).

    They are legally obliged to provide some services - refuse, water, sewage (not always) as far as the gate, but after that its the management's responsibility. However if you have a playground inside the gate. its your responsibility, nothing to do with the council.
