Situation is aggravated by the fact that the residents themselves should vote for his improvement. The essence of the problem is that this rate has not changed since 2005 when the sphere of housing services was transferred from municipal control in private hands. Collected on this line in the bills amounts are spent on the repair of roads, accomplishment and cleaning of the adjoining territory, maintenance of elevators and others. If you compare the price of supplies in 2005 and today, the rise was from 15 to 50 percent, depending on the type of work. Do not forget the growth of salary Fund of the employees of the managing companies. You receive a disappointing asymmetry: cash receipts are in place, prices go up, and in these circumstances the company is not able to procure the necessary materials and spare parts in the previous volumes. As hostages of this situation become tenants. For example, Elevator facilities. From February came into force, the technical regulations of the Customs Union, introducing a new standard of the national standard. Norm toughens the requirements to the quality of техсредств. Consequently, the specialists will tighten control — they now take a closer look at booths, panels order (placards with the story buttons). And if the Elevator does not meet the new requirements, it may simply reject — until its status will be brought in compliance with the requirements of experts. For quality of service need spare parts. The most expensive part of the lift — reducer — costs about 70 thousand. According to experts, in 2008 price for it showed a quarterly increase of 800 rubles. The engine is worth about 40 thousand. Change with them coupling half — two thousand. And so on. So increased tariffs on the maintenance and current repair is a matter of time. Moreover, it may be adopted only residents of the majority of votes at общедомовом meeting. It turns out such a financial self-flagellation. Will owners? The increase of this is not the most expensive lines in payment by 15-20 percent\’t that much of a ruin. But, in my opinion, the movement towards must be mutual. And the first step should make managing organizations, which are required to maximum openness, a detailed report and free access to information. To each bought a panicle, brush or reducer were taken into account and recorded in the statements. As Vedomosti\’d be publicly available for residents. Honourable. Bash-na-bash.
