Our May meeting will take place on Thursday 12th May at 7pm in the Dublin City Council building on Wood Quay, Dublin 8. We’ll be in Training Room 2 on the first floor. If you have any trouble finding us, ask the friendly security guards on the ground floor.
We have two members of the group giving a presentation on self-management (cutting out the managing agent). With owners demanding reduced service charges and better service, this is a very important issue and is a path well worth considering.
After the presentation, we’ll be doing a Q&A related to the talk and then a general Q&A.

Most of you will know that MUD is now law and that it forces developers to transfer all the common areas to the management company by 1st September. To make sure this goes ahead on time and that developers can’t claim that they weren’t aware, we’ve prepared a letter for you to send to them. To find out more, read here.

And finally, if your waiting for vesting to happen, now is also a good time to try to get the local authority to take ownership of some of the green areas and roads. And yes, we have something to help you with that too: read here

Hi There,
i cannot make the meeting on the 12th but we are a Multi-unit developement in Kildare. we the residents have formed a committee and manage the residential property(13 out of 16 is sold) ourselves while the developer still had agents managing the retail units.(3out of 9 leased) how does the MUD act affect us and can we still act as a committee as opposed to a company. The developer is also looking into amalgamating both residential and retail and forming one company. any input or thoughts from the meeting would be appreaciated.
regards
Carlene
