Capital Projects Plans
Capital Projects are projects run by CVRL to maintain and further develop the Village. They are managed outside the service charge process as, due to the sums involved, the are subject to both wider consultation and to a deeper level of budget management than the day to day business of CVRL. These projects are often covered by what is known as the “sinking fund”
Strategic Planning
These documents describe the original plan and subsequent revisions
Lift Refurbishment
As many of you will have noticed, we’ve seen an increase in the rate of our maintenance issues with lifts across the Village. Simply put, our lifts are all coming to the end of their fifteen to twenty year life span, and we must now consider a strategic solution that does more than simply nurse the lifts from issue to issue.
In response to advice from our managing agents, Michael Richards and Co., the Board commissioned a survey of all our lifts. This survey was commissioned in June 2024 and carried out in the autumn of that year, the report from which is now available at the link provided below.
External Repairs Project
The External Repairs project provided for extensive repairs to the outside walls of the buildings in the Village, as well as the replacement of the front doors to each block
Heating and Hot Water
Residents of the Village will be aware that the Village runs a communal heating and hot water supply, provided by a series of communal boilers. Clearly, these need occasional upgrades and eventually will come to the end of their lives, so requiring their replacement. These documents relate to the Capital Projects Plans relating to the Heating and Hot Water systems.
We have now gone through two Capital Projects relating to the boilers, the documents relating to which are provided below.
