MAN/00BN/LSC/2024/0240 · service charges · Manchester · decided 3 Mar 2026
The Tribunal found most of the 2023/24 and 2024/25 service charges reasonable, reduced window cleaning to budget, disallowed the 2024/25 tree works charge as unevidenced, and made a section 20C order so the landlord's costs of these proceedings cannot be added to the service charge.
