Duties of a resident


Duties of Residents

Residents must: 
  • Allow the Manager reasonable access to carry out their duties
  • Give the Manager any information they need in order to carry out their duties
  • Comply with reasonable arrangements for fire safety and refuse disposal.
Residents must not: 
  • Hinder the Manager in the performance of their duties
  • Cause damage to anything which the Manager must keep in repair

What happens if the Manager does not manage the property correctly?

If a manager fails to manage a property correctly and has breached any regulations, the Council will take action.

Managers are notified of any breaches by a formal letter stating

  • the contraventions observed
  • works required to be carried out
  • a timescale for completion

Failure to resolve these breaches may lead to prosecution or a Civil Penalty.
