Holland Gardens Residents Community AGM 2005

- 03-Feb-2005
The Annual General Meeting of the Holland Gardens Residents Community is scheduled to take place on the evening of
Thursday 17 February 2005.

As the current core Committee has been in place for 12 months now, our constitution requires us to conduct a new set of elections to the Committee. We are circulating a Proxy Voting Form (see link below) where you can indicate your preference for who should be on the Holland Gardens Residents Community Committee for the year ahead – yourself included. From these votes and from those at the forthcoming meeting, a core Committee of around 10 residents will be reformed and positions of Chair, Vice-Chair, Secretary and Treasurer determined.

What has the Core Committee done for us in the last 12 months?

  • Secured a blanket 1-band reduction in Council Tax for the vast majority of flats.
  • Lobbied to save St George’s Church from demolition, resulting in Barratt’s planning application being rejected in December 2004.
  • Launched a website for residents to keep informed with Holland Gardens news, property prices, etc.
  • Introduced circa 16% reduction on personal electricity charges (to participating apartments).
  • Secured reductions in communal electricity costs by switching to more favourable business tariffs.
  • Quarterly review and challenge of all Service Charge costs in conjunction with Pembertons.
  • Regular liaison meetings with Barratts and Pemberton’s on snagging items (leaking carparks, dead trees, cleaning standards, etc)
  • Participated in the clean up of the Thames in front of Holland Gardens.
So if you fancy getting involved in these activities or know someone who might want to, then add your opinion to the Proxy Form or see you at the AGM. Warning – this does require a sizeable time commitment and actual work – it’s not just a forum to catch up on what the neighbours are doing.

If you are unable to attend the meeting and wish to vote or nominate a candidate to serve on the Committee, please use the attached Proxy form.

Your Residents Community need YOU !
