Flat 84 Beauchamp House, Greyfriars Road, Coventry, CV1 3RX

BIR/00CQ/LSC/2024/0628 · service charges · Coventry · decided 25 Jun 2026

figures not yet checked

The Tribunal found the 2022 lighting works were a single set of works that should have been consulted on, so lessees' contribution is limited to £250 each, the 2023/24 surplus should have been credited to lessees rather than moved to reserves, reserve funds should have earned interest, and the Metro PM management agreement was not a qualifying long-term agreement.

Read from the decision automatically: a regular-expression pass, then a language model whose every value must quote the decision word for word; the two readings disagreed on something, so these figures haven't been checked yet and are left out of the statistics. Compare with the original.
