Dear Residents of Flockmill,

The Common Property SubCommittee is pleased to share an update on activities planned for the coming year.

Common Property Waste Collection

Following the recent survey sent to the Owners Corporation members, those who responded overwhelmingly endorsed the provision of a red bin secured in the recommended enclosure, and the donation of the old round bin enclosures to a not for profit organisation. The OC Committee has authorised Tideways to order the recommended Woodbury BN50 from the supplier, Urban Design Group. Delivery will be arranged within four to six weeks, and will be installed on the existing concrete pad near the drink tap. If you know of a not for profit who might be able to make use of the old yellow enclosures, please let us know.
