|
35 HK visited on 27/4, surveyor in as well wrt floor loading, happy,
|
|
|
36 further years lighting fixtures mentioned, would need approval from
|
|
|
37 us. Showed him the flat. No actual reply wrt Licencing Venue. Not
|
|
|
38 particularly happy about Hideout bailing, we've got fealers out to a
|
|
|
39 Mimi's Bakehouse and Susie's (Kitchen?). Summerhall?

45 3.2 Lighting
|
|
406
|
46
|
|
|
47 MG reverted to Gunn/Alexanders: Carbon is horrendous. Timetabled for
|
|
|
48 1st week in July.
|
|
|
49 We need a decision about cool/warm/...
|
|
|
50
|
|
|
51 ACTION HST: Contact Jean Carletta about more replacable fitting?

52 If no, or not quickly, then
|
|
|
53 ACTION HST&JK to put a request to Trustees for approval.
|

|
55 3.3 Carpets
|
|
406
|
56
|
|
|
57 Our two guys both said no allergy or smell issue. No difference in
|
|
|
58 risk of lifting. 75% recycled is available for <10% change.
|
|
|

|
|

|
62 3.4 Flat 3F2 at 6 Upper Bow
|
|
405
|
63 HST proposed that we add the use of 3F2 by CVenues to their licence
|
|
|
64 agreement. As a one-off private agreement between us, it means
|
|
|
65 it's not a "short-term let".
|
|
|
66
|
|
|
67 MG looked briefly at advertisements for August lets in the centre,
|
|
|
68 and reported
|
|
|
69
|
|
|
70 It could be anything from £5,000 per month to £10,000 per month, I think,
|
|
|
71 on location alone.
|
|
|
72 One room and shared spaces is £1,500 per month, at the lowest. And that is
|
|
|
73 quite a way out.
|
|
|
74 Even allowing for it being a bit scruffy, anything under £2,500 per month
|
|
|
75 would be underselling it in August, I think.
|
|
|
76 One chap I found is charging £4,500pm for a double room on the other side
|
|
|
77 of the Meadows...
