FLOOR COVERING
We would remind you that the leases of Stuart Tower require that all floors are covered with carpets to help sound proofing and avoid noise pollution problems within the block. If hard floorings are installed they must have the correct underlay sound proofing to prevent noise disturbance to other residents. You will all appreciate how important this is in such a large block. Any complaints about noise disturbance will be followed up by the Managing Agents and if incorrectly fitted hard flooring is found to be the problem, lessees will be required to replace it with carpet.

SUBLETTING
We would remind all lessees that under the terms of the lease you are required to obtain a Licence to Sublet for any sub-tenancy of a flat. A copy of the tenancy agreement along with copy references taken on the tenants should be sent to Haywards Property Services for approval. All correspondence should be marked for the attention of Shkeila Russ. Please note if you do not have a Licence in place for a sub-tenancy you are in breach of the terms of the lease.

BALCONIES
Once again we would remind everyone the importance of not throwing rubbish or waste from balconies, from both a hygienic and Health and Safety point. You will all appreciate that the disposal of cigarette ends in such a fashion leads to a direct fire hazard. Added to this is the simple point of common curtsey to your neighbors.

RUBBISH
There have been reports of the rubbish chutes being blocked by overfilled rubbish bags. Could all residents please ensure that reasonably sized rubbish bags are only put into the chute. All large rubbish sacks should be taken to the bins in the basement area, adjacent to the lift. All furniture that needs to be removed should not be left in chute area, but either, to be picked up by the bin men, with agreement of Dave, or you can arrange removal directly with Westminster on 020 7641 2000 or their website does contain detailed information of waste disposal options : www.westminster.gov.uk If in doubt please ask the porters for advice.

OVERCROWDING
The leases of Stuart Tower restrict occupation of the flats to two people, to avoid any problems with overcrowding. This remains the case even if a flat has been converted from a one bedroom unit to a two bedrooms. You will all appreciate that overcrowding of the block can lead to security problems and raise issues of concern in respect of Health and Safety. Any lessee found to be overcrowding a unit will be in breach of the terms of their lease and appropriate action will be taken.

CLEAN WINDOWS
Under the terms of the lease lessees are responsible for keeping their windows and window dressings clean, and by doing so the general appearance of the building is enhanced.
