I don't really want to add anything more to this thread because I think it has taken on an aggressive attitude that is not in the spirit of Burrells Wharf. The only thing I would like to confirm for my own maths is the £50 for checking a BW flat. In the accounts sent out in January, it showed a line for "plumbing checks" estimated at £12,000 for the charthouse alone. I'm not sure how many flats are in the charthouse (less than 50?), but that doesn't work out at £50 each, unless either this line was incorrectly labelled or that the £12,000 included other things? As for everything else, I guess we are at a bit of a stalemate. As I have mentioned before, I think communication is the key. Although democracy is not always a good way to run a company, perhaps the directors would consider a monthly or bi monthly informal report to make shareholders aware of the upcoming problems and the solutions they are considering. At least that would remove the concern from shareholders that not all avenues are being looked at when the unavoidable unexpected happens, by giving them the opportunity to make positive suggestions at the time.
