Windows
To date the windows of 206 flats have been changed. It will hopefully be complete by April/May.
Internal Painting
It is intended to touch up the white gloss paintwork in the communal areas this spring.
External Painting
To date more than 50% of the external painting of soffits, facias and black boarding has been painted.
Lawns
Unfortunately with the wet weather we have some damage to the lawns caused by the cherry picker. This will be handled when the windows have been completed.
Trees
Many positive comments have been received about the pruning of over 80 trees at Scotney Gardens, together with the hedges these now have shape and enhance the ambience of Scotney Gardens.
Recycling
Extra green bins have been obtained for the disposal of recycling. Please read the notices regarding the items which can be recycled. Lessees are reminded not to put black bin bags in the green bins as they will be rejected and the whole bin not emptied.
Bin Sheds
We are still getting rubbish left outside the bin stores. This results in rats and foxes ripping open the bags and encouraging other vermin. Remember the mess has to be cleared up by our staff. If you have lost your key please contact the office for a replacement at the cost of £6.00.
Smoking
Please use the ashtrays provided. Remember if you cannot dispose of your cigarette properly we have to do it which increases the cost of the service charge. Motorists are also asked not to empty their ashtrays in the car park. If you see this happening please advise the office who together with help from CCTV will try and identify the culprit.
Rubbish out of windows
There are more and more cases of Lessees throwing rubbish out of their windows, cigarette packets, cigarette butts, food packaging, nappies etc. We want a nice clean environment. If you see it happening – report it.
Dogs
They have to be kept on a lead at all times. Dogs are not allowed on the lawns. Remember the lawns are used by residents including small children.
Parking
We would remind residents that if they receive a parking ticket they must contact UKPC. The management company cannot handle fines received.
