We hold smaller Committee Meetings every last Thursday of the month when there are no Open Meetings scheduled.

One of the most requested items that the LGTRA are asked to assist with are repairs and the general upkeep of Lansdowne Green. We discuss and pursue the communal repairs that impact all residents on Lansdowne Green, for example, we chased the repair of the garage roof that had blown off during the storm and was causing obstruction and we have chased the repair of the communal lights. We escalate these repairs to Southern Housing and keep residents informed on progress through Open Meetings and the Newsletters.
If you spot an issue on the estate please assist by reporting it to Southern Housing initially and then forwarding the reference number to us so that we may escalate and track the issue where required.
If you have a repair that impacts your own flat then you must report this to Southern Housing yourself in the first instance. This ensures that there is a record on Southern Housing's system regarding your repair and you should receive a reference number. If your repair has not been completed within the time specified by Southern Housing for the type of repair then launch a formal complaint with Southern Housing. The LGTRA are happy to assist at this point where we can however the procedure must be followed first by you raising the repair and complaint with Southern Housing.
