There are a few valid points that were made at the meeting last week;
-Fixing the ground floor would cost only about £500 per flat but it's better to fix everything as why should people on the higher levels pay for issues only affecting the ground floor, even though we sympathise with them?! This view was expressed by a few people and it seems fairer to fix everyones problems. The 5k would also repaint all the flats.
-If the garden is dug up no-one can guarantee the extent of damage. 'Blocks of concrete could fall on cars' I quote.
-Although there is water there now, putting in a roof at the 3rd would stop it getting worse and there are remedies to fixing the current damp problem there now.
A few points that weren't covered;
-Do we have permission from the freeholders, Pathfinder, to make such amendments to the building?
-Are we going to claim money back for the damage from the garden?
-If the roof is at the 5th floor, or the glass enclosures cover the walkways there instead, it will inhibit the ability for those on the 4th and 5th to move large bulky furniture around on those landings. And on the 5th the glass won't actually meet the flat front and so the carpet walkways still wouldn't be totally covered
-Whose flat is going to have a noisey air-conditioning unit or heater stuck next to it?
It does seem to have been all a little rushed and nobody has any idea of how much majority there will be for a motion to be carried for the work. Oh well, it will all come to a head on Wednesday!!!
