Address to residents of the house. How to write an advertisement in the entrance about cleanliness. Sample letter to owners about creating an HOA

Published at the request of the Initiative Group of House No. 10/1.
“Dear neighbors!
We often scold the City Administration and the Management Company for all the “deadly sins”, while we always consider ourselves to be right, based on the principle “I paid the receipt for housing and communal services, and now I can demand everything in full.” Until recently, I was also guided by this principle.
My views began to change after participating in the general meeting of our house, which was held on the initiative of GUZHF LLC on January 23, 2016. Those who were at that meeting will understand me. Then it seemed to everyone present that choosing GUZhF LLC as a management company was like trading an awl for soap, i.e. there is no point. A legitimate question arises: “How to live further?” Coming out onto the porch of the House of Officers, everyone who came to this meeting began to propose, without delay, to create a Home Owners Association (HOA), citing as an example the positive experience of houses where such partnerships are already functioning. It’s one thing to talk, another thing to create. We began to study this issue in more detail and outlined an action plan. In order not to repeat myself, I suggest reading Information Bulletin No. 1, which was prepared by us and, at our request, published by A. Plaksin in the previous article. As they delved into the problem of creating an HOA, members of the initiative group began to clearly understand that there were more questions about the house than answers. Partially, these problems were brought up for public discussion on the NaSvyazistov.com website. To understand the scale of the problems in the housing and communal services sector of our city, I propose to take part in forums and round tables, which are held by the city administration quarterly. After participating in such a forum on March 1, 2016, I had a firm conviction that the implementation of the requirements of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation, decrees of the Government of the Russian Federation, the Governor and the Government of the Moscow Region should be carried out by specialized organizations with the appropriate qualifications and structure. And the indefatigable initiative of the residents of the house should be aimed at creating conditions under which the activities of the management company and resource supply organizations of the city were under constant control and dialogue was carried out.
I ask myself and you legitimate questions: “Why haven’t House Councils been created in our neighborhood yet?”; “Why does our integrity only end with filing complaints with supervisory authorities?”, “Where, in the end, is our consolidated civic position on maintaining order in our home in every sense?”
These questions sound very strange and offensive at the mere thought that the majority of the residents of the house are military men who have extensive experience in solving complex problems, and today it is not possible to self-organize when solving the problems of a particular house.
What can and should be done by us, apartment OWNERS, in such a situation.
I propose to implement the requirements of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation regarding the creation of a House Council. Elect caring people to the Council who are capable of solving current and emerging problems. Residents of the house, regardless of the form of ownership of the premises, provide the House Council with support in their activities.
As of January 31, 2016, we had 32 residents who wanted to make a difference. But in order to radically change the situation, there must be 400-500 of us. This kind of work is underway.
So the Initiative Group of our house has prepared until March 23 of this year. will be handed to all owners of apartments in our building against signature of a notice of the general meeting. At the same time, the same information will be posted on the website: “http://site”; on information boards installed in each entrance on the first floors, and can also be obtained by sending a request to the email address: " [email protected]».
We ask you to carefully study the message you received. April 3 this year put all your affairs and problems aside for 2 hours and come to the Youth Center for a meeting at home. Take the documents specified in the message with you. Register at the registration points at each entrance. Cast your vote in support of the House Council.
In addition, we need to create a Register of Owners. Some of the data was provided by the management company, but it requires clarification. Therefore, simultaneously with the delivery of messages, members of the initiative group will ask you to clarify the information we have.
If you are unable to attend the meeting, inform the members of the initiative group about this. They will assist in the preparation and execution of a power of attorney for those who are guaranteed to be there.
Please note that creating a Homeowners Association is a task that requires extensive and thorough preparation. At this stage, it is tactically advantageous to elect GUZhF LLC as the management company, and the House Council, together with it, will understand the situation, take control of it and present objective information to the General Meeting of the house to make a decision on the choice of method of managing the house.
The initiative group believes it is advisable, in the context of the transfer of affairs from one management company to another, to the owners of the apartments in our building to choose GUZhF LLC as the management company for the following reasons.
1. More than 30% of our homeowners spoke in favor of this company.
2. This company actually partially provides services in our neighborhood.
3. If you compare the tariffs in the city, then for this company they have not changed for 5 years.
4. In the course of our activities, we had the opportunity to verify the desire to work and the ability to solve the problems of our neighborhood.
The last word is yours, friends!

Sincerely, Yuri Akmatkhonovich Asmatov (owner of apartment 157, building 10/1). Nick on the site.

Even in an entrance hall where cleaning is carried out systematically, it is difficult to achieve cleanliness when the residents of the same house constantly litter, disturb the order, leave inscriptions on the walls, without noticing their guilt.

How to deal with such neighbors and what to do if it is not neighbors, but strangers, who litter and disturb the order?

Painted and dirty elevators and entrances are a situation close to many homeowners in high-rise buildings. At the same time, some of them persistently clean themselves, and some hire cleaning companies, paying for the services at their own expense.

And if you can easily sweep up the trash and wash the windows, then erasing the inscriptions on the walls and in the elevator is hard work. The methods of struggle in such cases, unfortunately, are not varied. The only way you can fight is to write an ad.

To reach neighbors who constantly litter, the ad must be convincing. Address not to specific individuals, but to all residents of the specified house. Invite everyone to a cleanup to get others involved in cleaning.

The invitation must include information about the date, time and location of the cleaning, be it the entrance or the local area. Also indicate which apartment and owners are initiating the cleanup.

On the appointed day there will be at least several helpers. Be sure to write down the names and apartments of those who responded to your offer. After cleaning, write an announcement with the following content:

“The house was cleaned with the participation of apartments (list numbers) on Saturday, such and such a date. We kindly ask you not to litter and respect other people’s work.”

If, despite these actions, they continue to litter the entrance, you will have to move on to radical actions, which may even entail appeals to higher authorities.

How to correctly compose an invitation to a cleanup event

The first step in interacting with neighbors on the issue of cleanliness is to write an announcement about the cleanup. It might look like this:

“Dear residents of the house! You, like us, residents of apartment N, probably don’t like living in a dirty entrance and yard. We propose to hold a cleanup day to clean and improve our joint property. The cleanup day is held on the N day of the N month at (time). Let's put our house in order together."

Since you are showing initiative, stock up on equipment - uninitiated neighbors may even be embarrassed to go out, but when they see that there is work for them, they may join in. Be sure to write down everyone present at the cleanup, take photos before and after the work begins. After subbotniks, meetings among those present turn out to be effective.

By organizing such a meeting, you can encourage residents to keep the house clean and involve other residents in the house to clean, or at least motivate them not to litter. If residents support your initiative to further care for the house and territory, write down the talking points of the meeting and collect signatures of those present with their names and apartment numbers.

Additional measures

An additional key to cleanliness in the entrance can be measures to protect it. Often the cause of blockage in the entrance is people or companies that accidentally come in and visit your neighbors.

A good way to stop strangers drinking, smoking or littering in the entrance is video surveillance or a lock on the entrance door.

To install video surveillance, you will need the consent of your neighbors. You need to hold a meeting, collecting signatures from your neighbors stating that they agree to install video surveillance in your entrance.

If the meeting fails, go door to door and ask for signatures this way. You do not have the right to install the equipment yourself in any case. But having secured at least a dozen signatures, there is no doubt about the legality of the event.

By installing video surveillance, you can record the faces of violators of cleanliness and their actions. Contact a specific person with a request not to litter. If he ignores this request, you can use the photos taken as evidence when contacting your home maintenance structures.

Announcement to maintain order

After holding the cleanup, you will need one more announcement. It, in general, should become the final point of your physical actions to organize order.

The ad might look like this:

“Dear residents of building N! Please note that order in the entrance and yard was put in order on the Nth day of this month by the residents of the apartments (list). Please keep your house in order and respect other people's work. We will be glad if you join the cleaning at the next cleanup event, which will be announced in advance.”

If video surveillance was installed at the entrance, this should also be indicated in the advertisement:

“We also ask you to pay attention to the fact that video surveillance was installed in the entrance on the Nth day to maintain order and general peace of mind for the residents of the house.”

The very presence of such an announcement at the entrance can stop clogging, since no one wants to be filmed.

Radical measures

The practice of solving problems arising on the basis of communal living shows that such a sequence of actions usually leads to understanding between neighbors. Sometimes, proactive neighbors continue to carry out community cleanups and cleanups despite the fact that someone is constantly littering, and sometimes radical measures are taken.

If subbotniks, a request to maintain order, and even video surveillance did not stop the violators, you can act in this way:

• record the offender, collect photos to prove the guilt of a specific person living in the house;
• attach copies of advertisements about cleanliness and cleanup days to the photo;
• attach minutes of meetings with neighbors, where they confirm their consent to install surveillance or conduct cleanup days;
• the collected package of documents is submitted to the management company.

Systematic violations of cleanliness, despite the efforts of other residents of the house, can become a serious basis for charges in court.

The Housing Code regulates the disposal of common property, the fund of which includes:

• entrance;
• landing;
• flights of stairs;
• the area adjacent to the house;
• attic;
• basement;
• any technical premises.

This property belongs to all property owners in the house equally. If someone is caught and accused of littering, the law defines him as a destroyer of common property.

This means that any thrown cigarette butt or beer can can be regarded as damage to common property. Such a violation is considered by the court at the request of the management company or the chairman of the house council. The violator bears administrative liability in the form of a fine or warning.

If the violator did not comply with the court order - did not remove the littered area or did not pay the fine - he may be convicted of failure to comply with judicial acts under the Criminal Code, which is a much more serious violation.

Judicial and domestic practice

In the judicial practice of the Russian Federation, cases have been repeatedly considered in which the plaintiffs were residents of one of the houses with a claim against their own neighbors. If the obvious facts pointed to the defendants' guilt, the court awarded the defendants community service to clean or restore the entrance and surrounding area for a certain period of time. As a rule, it did not come to the application of the Criminal Code.

The use of more loyal methods, such as personal example in cleaning, announcements of cleanliness and cleanup days, usually lead to consensus and order is actually maintained in the entrance.

An appeal that mentions the presence of video cameras is especially effective. Then the order is violated only by random people who do not live in the entrance.

Conclusion

A call for cleanliness is a really working method for putting things in order. But if you don’t set your own example, such an announcement will have little weight. In some cases, an announcement is enough to call the neighbors living in the house to their conscience.

But sometimes you have to resort to radical measures: installing additional equipment, involving neighbors and going to court.

Still, it’s worth starting small - appeal to the conscience of your littering neighbors. You can create an advertisement using the sample provided, or you can create an appeal yourself, taking into account your neighborly relations and the characteristics of the contingent living in the house.

To the President of the Russian Federation
Putin Vladimir Vladimirovich
From residents of an apartment building
located at the address: 664078, Irkutsk, mrk. Green, d1a Appeal

Dear Vladimir Vladimirovich. Residents of an apartment building located at the address: Irkutsk, microdistrict are contacting you. Green, d.

1a. The house is wooden, 2-storey, twelve apartments. The house belongs to the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation, cadastral number 38: 36: 000014: 0000: 25401: 001: 020292830, year of construction 1984. Initially, it was built as temporary housing for employees of the military construction units of the Soviet Army who were building the microdistrict.

The apartments were issued by the commanders of the military units in which we worked. Documents confirming the right of residence were kept in the house management of military unit No. 42012. In the 90s, military construction units were disbanded, and the house management from the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation was abolished. Residents have repeatedly turned to management companies with a request to issue duplicate documents confirming the right to reside in the apartments they occupy, but they refuse to issue them, citing the loss of documents.

Warrants for apartments disappeared without a trace. And we remained living in temporary housing. 43 people live in the house, including 8 children under the age of 14, 3 children under the age of 18, 11 pensioners, 2 disabled people of 2 groups, 1 disabled person of 3 groups. The house is in disrepair.

There is no foundation. When the ground freezes in winter and spring, the building becomes deformed. During this time, significant settlement of the house occurred. The apartments have deformed walls and distorted ceilings and floors.

The glass in the window frames is cracking, the door frames have sagged and have a loose aperture. In the spring, when the snow melts, the apartments on the first floor are flooded. The sewer system is worn out, sewage runs under the house. Due to this, the floors on the first floors are falling through.

There is a constant smell of sewage in the apartments, which our young children are forced to breathe. Due to the lack of sufficient thermal insulation and the penetration of external cold air, in winter the temperature in the apartments does not rise above 13 degrees, and ice forms on the internal surfaces of the walls. Some apartments have no heating. Children get sick all the time.

Therefore, residents, despite the catastrophically worn-out wiring, are forced to heat their homes with electric heaters. In 2016, a fire occurred due to an electrical short circuit in one of the apartments of the building. Since moving into the house, no repairs or replacement of electrical wiring have been carried out. We live in constant fear of fire.

The roof is worn out and leaks when precipitation falls and snow melts. The roof area is damaged and there is no thermal insulation. The plaster on the building's façade is cracking and falling off. There is no plaster at all on the back side of the house.

In the entrances, the drywall is coming off the walls and falling off in pieces. Walking along the stairs in the entrance is dangerous to the life and health of residents. To avoid the collapse of staircases, supports were installed in the entrance, and the walls were reinforced with wooden blocks. Most of the residents are pensioners and young children.

Residents cannot bear the costs of maintaining a residential building (roof repair, replacement of the sewer system, replacement of electrical wiring) due to their financial and physical capabilities. Despite all of the above, the management company issues monthly payment documents for utilities. The cost of which clearly does not correspond to the living conditions in our house. A significant part of the payment for utilities relates to such items as: housing maintenance, sewerage, heating.

However, no housing maintenance services are provided. The sewer system of the house is not connected to the central sewer system of the neighborhood. All sewage is discharged behind the house. If residents disagree with their utility bills, they are threatened with eviction.

Since November 2017, the status of our house has been changed. The 12-apartment residential building became a dormitory. The reasons for the change in status are not explained to us. In 2009

The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation carried out an examination to determine the deterioration of the building. According to the results of the examination, the house was 95% worn out. The residents do not have the results of the examination in their hands, due to the fact that the owner of the residential building is the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. In 2011, we contacted the Federal State Institution “52 Operational and Technical Commandant’s Office” (military unit 63628) with a request to provide a conclusion on recognizing this apartment building as unsafe.

To which we received the answer that the decision has not yet been made and until the final decision is made by the federal owner, it is not possible to provide any documents about the technical condition of the house, as well as about decisions made at the local level. We contacted the administration of Irkutsk with a request to create an interdepartmental commission to inspect this residential building for suitability for living, as well as for inclusion in the program of relocation from dilapidated and dilapidated housing. To which they received a refusal due to the fact that this object is not listed in the Register of Municipal Property of the city.

Irkutsk. We are tired of fighting and turning to inactive authorities. Out of desperation, we turned to television in the hope that we would finally be noticed and heard. But, unfortunately, everything remained in the same place.

The financial capabilities of the residents of the house do not allow them to buy another home. Residents of this house are not eligible for other social housing programs operating in Irkutsk. The house is inhabited by: a large family that was on the waiting list in 1988 to receive social housing under the housing program for large families, refugees who moved from Kazakhstan in 1994.

To this day, housing has also not been provided. We ask you to consider the possibility of creating an interdepartmental commission to inspect an apartment building, as well as help you move from a life-threatening building before trouble happens. The house is collapsing before our eyes. Please report the results of consideration of the appeal within the time limits established by law to the address: 664078,

Irkutsk, mrk. Zeleny, 1a Email address: Ru Sincerely, residents of the apartment building at the address: 664078,

Irkutsk, mrk. Green, 1a.

Each resident of an apartment building probably has a couple of “stones” of claims that he is ready to throw at his neighbor. Noise at night, garbage in the entrance, seizure of parking spaces - this is not a complete list of what can poison our lives and ruin relationships with neighbors, but you can emerge victorious from any conflict situation if you know how to act correctly.

Battle for silence

Among the most common complaints about neighbors are regular noise at night or a love of loud repair work early in the morning on a weekend. Typically, residents suffering from noisy neighbors prefer to deal with the silence breakers personally, namely through threats, or even assault. The first often does not work, and for the second you can pay for it yourself.

There is no single federal law regulating noise levels depending on the day. Similar laws are adopted in each region separately. For example, in Moscow it is prohibited to make noise in an apartment building from 11 pm to 7 am, experts emphasize. As a rule, in the regions, at the level of local regulatory legal acts, noise restrictions are introduced, similar to those in the capital, notes lawyer, head of his own legal center Oleg Sukhov. By the way, such a ban does not mean that you can make noise during the remaining 24 hours, that is, from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m.

Thus, in accordance with the Federal Law "On the Sanitary and Epidemiological Welfare of the Population", sanitary standards for the permissible sound volume of sound-reproducing and sound-amplifying devices, as well as SNiP standards, the permissible noise level should not exceed 35 dB in the period from 7 to 23, and 25 dB in the period from 23 to 7 o’clock, explains Sukhov.

Of course, it is impossible to independently measure the noise level, notes General Director of the Metrium Group company Maria Litinetskaya. In addition, the court only accepts data as evidence from certified organizations, for example, Rospotrebnadzor, she adds. The main evaluation criterion in such a situation is a personal feeling of discomfort.

“If a rowdy neighbor cannot be pacified through peaceful negotiations, you need to call the local police officer and write a statement to bring the offender to administrative responsibility. Moreover, the more often such calls are recorded, the greater the chances of winning the fight for a peaceful sleep,” the agency’s interlocutor instructs. However, administrative punishment, according to her, scares people little - after all, it is just a fine in the amount of one to two thousand rubles. In this case, residents of adjacent apartments have the right to petition law enforcement agencies to consider the issue of confiscation of audio equipment as an instrument for committing an administrative offense, clarifies Roman Zyatnin, a lawyer at Yukov and Partners.

Well, if this doesn’t help, then you can take an extreme measure - evict the troublemakers. This can be achieved by collecting the necessary evidence of the noise of neighbors, explains Litinetskaya. “It will be necessary to record your appeals to the district police officer, letters to the noisy neighbor indicating complaints and demands to stop violating the neighbors’ right to rest, and obtain a conclusion from Rospotrebnadzor that the permissible noise level has been exceeded,” says the agency’s interlocutor. With these documents, you can send it to the local administration with a request to bring a claim for the forced sale of the offender’s housing at auction.

Who in Russia is most at risk of becoming homeless >>>

The chances of “calming down” rowdies increase if there is a collective complaint against them, because, as a rule, careless neighbors cause inconvenience not only to an individual resident, but to several families at once, adds Sukhov.

In general, if you want to achieve results, you need not to be lazy and be persistent, advises Vadim Lamin, managing partner of the Spencer Estate real estate agency. The expert himself shares personal experience from his life: once, after several hours of confrontation, he managed to stop noisy work on the construction site of an elite house in Khamovniki in the dead of night. He needed to call police crews twice, take a photograph of the foreman and a permit for work at night, signed by the prefect, which stated that “no noise” work was allowed. “After all the participants were photographed and rewritten, they were promised “many good things,” all work immediately stopped,” says Lamin.

Battle for purity

Another reason for a neighbor's quarrel is trash in the stairwell. In this case, you can deal with violators of cleanliness in several ways, for example, by using psychological techniques. For example, if a neighbor systematically puts garbage out the door, you can ring his doorbell and, smiling politely, tell him that he forgot his package on the staircase, advises Litinetskaya. And do this every time he puts out a package. You can also post notices asking neighbors not to litter on notice boards. The advantage of this is that other residents will also see such a message, which means that the problem will become “public,” and any violator subconsciously wants to avoid publicity.

According to Article 30 of the Housing Code, residents of an apartment building must keep its common property clean, and in accordance with the “Rules for the Use of Residential Premises” they are obliged to respect the rights of neighbors, sanitary, hygienic and environmental standards and regulations, the expert explains. If this does not help, you will have to contact the prosecutor's office.

The battle for hygiene

Zealous pet lovers can be a real disaster for home residents. It is especially difficult in this case to “fight” with old grandmothers, who sometimes have 15 pets in a small apartment. It should be noted right away that there is no legal limit on the maximum number of animals that can be kept in a residential building, warns Sukhov. Therefore, complaints mainly arise due to an unpleasant odor, constant dirt in the entrance, noisy barking and meowing.

First of all, you need to file a complaint with the housing maintenance organization at your place of residence, the management company, the HOA, the housing inspection, the lawyer instructs. It is these organizations that must monitor how the rules for keeping pets are implemented. It would not be amiss to contact the local police officer to conduct an inspection and draw up a protocol, adds Sukhov.

By law, animal owners are required to comply with hostel rules in public areas, adds Litinetskaya. In addition, she notes that it is prohibited to keep cats and dogs on balconies, loggias and attics, as well as to walk dogs without muzzles on the territory of children's and sports grounds.

Battle with car enthusiasts

Neighborhood feuds can go beyond the boundaries of the house and move into the yard. Particular complaints are made against car owners who like to wash their car or tinker with it right under the windows of the house, or “excitingly rev up”, showing off the power of the engine to friends. Experts unanimously declare that washing, repairing cars, draining oils and gasoline, as well as parking a car with the engine running are prohibited by law. For such offenses, the car owner faces administrative punishment in the form of a fine from one to five thousand rubles.

To bring such a car owner to justice, Zyatnin recommends taking a photo or video recording of the violation and calling the police to draw up a report on the commission of an administrative offense.

Battle for parking

The real bone of contention between neighbors, not just of one entrance, but of the entire house and even neighboring houses, is the battle for a parking space. Many people take over the space for their car, enclosing it with a chain. Others may damage the car of the neighbor who took their place. Both are illegal.

According to the law, if the place is not purchased or rented, then any motorist can use it, Lamin emphasizes.

Fencing of land plots falls under Article 7.1 of the Code of the Russian Federation on Administrative Offences, “Illegal occupation of a land plot,” recalls Litinetskaya. Therefore, if neighbors have fenced off their parking space with bollards, you can safely photograph the license plates of the car parked in this area, and then file a complaint with the district prefecture or district government, indicating contact information. Photos must be attached to the application.

“Your application must be assigned a serial number and submitted for consideration to the state government agency of the district’s engineering services, which is responsible for the maintenance of courtyard areas,” explains the agency’s interlocutor. In addition, you can also contact the district police department or write a statement to the environmental police. In this case, the violating car owner faces a fine in the amount of five to ten times the minimum wage (minimum wage).

Battle for territory

It also happens that neighbors take over part of the access area, for example, they fence off part of the staircase for a bicycle or stroller, or even completely block off the space under the stairs or some niches in the entrance. And other owners simply decide that in the common entrance corridor they will have a storage room where they can take out all large-sized trash and even store a scooter. In this situation, only a general meeting of the residents of the house can help.

The fact is that all the property of an apartment building is jointly owned by its owners, explains Sukhov. Without the consent of other residents, adopted at a general meeting, it is unlawful to carry out any actions to dispose of common property, the lawyer adds.

And lovers of scooters and motorcycles can be separately explained that storing a scooter on the landing violates fire safety rules, for failure to comply with which the culprit can be subject to serious administrative punishment, the expert points out.

Dear residents!

Once again I want to tell you about what housing maintenance is. Maintenance is understood as a set of mandatory works and services for the maintenance of the common property of an apartment building and the maintenance of general communications, technical devices and technical communications of an apartment building, carried out throughout the entire life cycle of the building constantly or with the frequency established by regulatory documents in order to maintain its safety and proper sanitary conditions. -hygienic condition. You can find a complete list of what is included in the contents in the Rules for the maintenance of common property in an apartment building (approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of August 13, 2006 N 491).

Currently, the general meeting of owners has approved a tariff for the maintenance of residential buildings in the amount of 18.27 rubles. (in the city in the same houses the tariff is 18.99 rubles). The total area of ​​our house is 6162.1 square meters. With 100% payment by all owners of our house, the amount for one month for maintenance would be 112,581.5 rubles. Since the formation of the HOA, there has never been 100% timely payment for housing from the owners! On average, every month 80% of owners pay receipts on time and in full, this amounts to 90,065.3 rubles. for the maintenance of the house.

Below are the fixed (mandatory) monthly expenses that are included in the maintenance of the housing unit:

1. Elevator maintenance – RUB 8,500.
2. Removal and disposal of solid waste/commodity waste – 11,700 rubles.
3. IRC services – 13,000 rubles.
4. Accounting services for HOAs – 10,000 rubles.
5. Maintenance of video surveillance/electrician services – RUB 4,800.
6. Salaries of full-time employees and taxes (4 people) – 48,000 rubles.

TOTAL: 96,000 rub.

Apart from fixed costs, there are other costs such as:

1. Elimination of accidents, leaks, failures in the operation of engineering systems.
2. Purchase of consumables and equipment (light bulbs, squeegees, brooms, shovels, gloves, etc.)
3. Services of special equipment, purchase of screenings, salt.
4. Preparing the house for the heating season (washing and pressing the heating system - this year 30,000 rubles; insulation of the facade end - 21,500 rubles)
5. Maintenance of automation on the heating system and other work.

Many of you do not see and do not understand the work that is included in the content of the film, and do not understand where their money goes. Based on the above, one can easily calculate that 80% of the funds collected are not enough for “visible” work; they are not even enough for the necessary needs of the HOA.

During the entire existence of our HOA, we have never been subject to administrative liability (fines). All inspections carried out in relation to the HOA have been passed, there are no comments. This important indicator in the work of the HOA was achieved thanks to the employees employed in the Partnership.

Separately, I would like to say once again about our sewage system. We do not have a gravity (centralized) sewer system, like almost all houses in the city, but a pump system. With the help of the Sewerage Pumping Station, waste along a 300-meter route enters the city sewer. Since the developer did not hand over these networks to the municipality, they remained on the balance sheet of the house, and accordingly on the balance sheet of our HOA.

The maintenance of the housing and communal services includes maintenance of the general house sewer system, i.e. what is located in the basement of the house and up to the first well, located near the wall of the house. In order to keep the water pumping station in working order, the Homeowners Association entered into an agreement with PMUP Vodokanal and that is why we have the line “Maintenance of the water pumping station” in the receipt. From 2016, this amount will decrease to 200 rubles per month and will not disappear until we hand over these networks to the municipality. The delivery process does not depend on the HOA. To date, I have submitted all the necessary documents to the BTI. Now the only problem is paying the state fee, in the amount of 28,500 rubles.

I encourage all owners to participate more actively in the life of our home. Come to see me and the lawyer more often, ask questions, find out information of interest from the first person, and not from incompetent persons.

I also urge owners to pay utility bills in good faith and on time, because... resource supply companies issue monthly invoices in full. Our HOA does not conduct any other activities other than maintaining its home; there is no additional income. Many of YOU allow yourself two to three months (some or more) not to pay bills for housing services, not realizing that, accordingly, the HOA will not be able to pay the bills of resource workers in full, so debts accumulate.

You and I have chosen to manage our home ourselves; we can create more comfortable living conditions in our home: repairing entrances, facades, working on energy efficiency in the use of utility resources, reducing amounts in receipts, landscaping the local area and much more.

In order for everything planned to be realized, everyone just needs to pay their utility bills on time and in full.

In addition, I thank all caring, conscientious residents, those who actively participate in the life of our house and provide assistance in resolving issues.

P . S . I would also like to encourage the owners to actively take part in all voting. After all, the general meeting of owners is the highest governing body of the house. And only the opinion of the majority determines what decision will be made on the issues raised at the vote. If the vote does not take place, it will be necessary to hold an in-person meeting again, incur the costs of printing ballots, etc. In addition, passive voting slows down the work and development of our HOA.
