September 24 committee Meeting Minutes
Minutes from the September Committee Meeting
Replacement of concrete stairs serving 9-21 Vanbrugh Park Road
An email from Pat Coyle RBG :
Hi Everybody,
I thought that I would provide you with some useful information affecting Vanbrugh Park Estate.
My team has arranged the replacement of the concrete steps at the south end of this block in Vanbrugh Park Road.
The works will commence shortly following consent from the Planning Department.
I have attached a residents letter that will be hand delivered tomorrow to all of the residents affected by the temporary closure of this staircase.
Following the replacement of these stairs a new non-slip waterproof coating will be applied to all of the concrete steps across Vanbrugh Park Estate.
Hopefully, this will preserve the existing concrete so that it avoids having to replace them in the future.
Regards
Pat

Drains update November
Update from Andy Eglinton RBG
Hi all,
Just to give you an update following the recent CCTV surveys to the drains across the estate, generally the drain runs are in good condition only requiring cleaning and de-scaling, some minor repairs are required to which I am raising orders for.
I will letter the relevant properties when the order is raised and I speak to Hardy Drainage as to the sequencing of the works.
I haven’t forgotten about the slight leak to the access door in the undercroft at Combe Mews, I have spoken to Hardy drainage who will address the issue when next on site ( imminently ).
Further update from RGB re stairways to all mews properties
20th September 2023
Hi all,
I am writing to you with regards to the concerns that have been raised by some of the residents regarding the waterproofing of the external stairs to blocks 2-20 Combe Avenue, 9-21 Vanbrugh Park Road & 1-19 Combe Mews, this matter has now been referred to our planning department and there will be a revision to the finish of the waterproofing system to ensure that it is more in keeping with the existing concrete appearance.
Once I have more info on this matter I will update you accordingly.
Regards
Andy
