Welcome to Kew Riverside,
Firstly,
as the Residents’ Association, we’d like to welcome
you warmly to Kew Riverside. We think it’s a great place to
live and we hope you do too.
If
you’re still sorting yourself out after having moved in, then
getting involved with our group is probably the last thing on your
mind! We’re all well aware of how short time is for most people
even if you haven’t just moved house, so we try to avoid having
endless meetings and do most of our communication through e-mail.
Although
we’re a Limited Company we perform an important role
as the voice of the residents in dealings with the developers St
James Homes and the management company Consort Properties.
Eventually we will assume responsibility for running the development.
We
are very active on issues such as security, garden maintenance and
the running of the leisure centre. We also liase with bodies such
as the Environment Agency and local Council, on matters relating
to the recycling centre and bio-thane plant.
Our
most important role though, is monitoring how our service charges
are spent. We are fortunate to have lawyers, accountants, management
consultants and other professionals on our committee, who all give
their time for free, to ensure that we can keep an effective watch
on where our money is going.
Whether
you’re a tenant or owner, these are issues which affect you.
So we would encourage you to join us, because the more members we
have the stronger our voice and the more we can get done.
