MP DAVID PINTO DUSHINKSEY
HELD 19TH OCTOBER 2024 AT GRAHAME PARK OLD LIBRARY 2-3pm.
WE CONTINUE TO FOLLOW THE PROCESS OF FORMALLY REGISTERING THE RESIDENT ASSOCIATION
Formal Challenge to Barnet Homes' Decision Regarding Resident Association Recognition
This Residents' Association hereby formally objects to the decision by Barnet Homes not to grant formal recognition. This decision impedes the Association's capacity to represent the interests of those freeholders, leaseholders, and shared owners who contribute to the Housing Revenue Account through service charges.
The Association contends that this action contravenes the principle of collective resident engagement, which is in stark contrast to the ALMOs parent Barnet Council, and will proceed to notify all relevant regulatory and oversight bodies of this decision and its potential legal implications.
