Capital Projects Works
A meeting and ‘walk about’ with council rep’s and contractors that carried out the Capital Projects Works at Somerton House has been arranged for the morning of Feb 14th, by local ward Councillor Geethika Jayatilaka.
This is to finally get unfinished works and long over due snagging completed and also to re put residents complaints and concerns over the new windows fitted, being unsuitable for an exposed high rising building such as Somerton House.
The update on the outcome of this meeting will be posted in the foum, but already there are signs of jobs / snagging / missed work is now being completed around the building for example: the fire extinguishers have been mounted to the wall, Two bulbs are now fitted in the Lift rather that the normal one, ceiling lights have been replaced, handrails fixed, bin chute repaired, floor panels on the 6th floor have been made safe ready for repair and new signage has been placed.
Councillor Jayatilaka, has been some what of a champion for residents of Somerton House over the years, following up concerns tenants have raised, along with attending meetings, and generally being helpful and very approachable. We thank her for her help and continued support.
