Flat 47 Regal Court Bancroft Hertford SG5 1LJ

CAM/26UF/LSC/2019/0041 · service charges · North Hertfordshire · decided 20 Dec 2019

The tribunal accepted the training and office expense charges as payable, but reduced the management fee by 50% for each year from 2015/16 to 2017/18 because it overlapped with the scheme manager costs already recharged as office expenses, and made a section 20C order protecting the lessees from the landlord's costs of the proceedings.
