Removal of Door Codes

In accordance with the decision at the meeting, all door codes will be removed starting from September 1st. This means that from September 1st, you will need to use a key or key fob to enter the building. The door codes will remain disabled until the intercoms are installed. Depending on the number of members in a household, you can purchase additional fobs and keys. If you need these, please contact the board.

Removal of the Condominium Supplementary Insurance

In accordance with the decision at the meeting, the condominium supplementary insurance will be removed. The current supplementary insurance provided by the association will remain valid until October 30, 2024. Starting November 1, 2024, you will need to arrange your own supplementary insurance. We will send out more information about this after the summer.

Clarification Regarding Fee Increase

The fee increase will take effect from August 1st as previously announced. However, this increase was unfortunately not reflected in the issued invoices. Therefore, the fee increase will be charged retroactively and will be shown on the upcoming invoices. As a tip, it is advisable to set aside money for the increase now to avoid any noticeable impact from the retroactive payment.

New Door Codes:

Starting from July 4th, all door codes will be changed. Just like last time, you can access the new codes via https://portkoder.brfbarkarbymetropol.se/. Detailed instructions can be found in the April newsletter.

OVK (Mandatory Ventilation Inspection) for House B

After the summer, there will be a mandatory ventilation inspection (OVK) for House B. OVK is required for all residences and is mandated by the municipality. More information will be provided later this summer for those affected.

Facade Work

Facade work will begin on the property during Week 31. This will continue for approximately 4-6 weeks but may be extended if issues arise. Scaffolding will be erected, and some balconies will need to be accessed, primarily via the scaffolding but also through apartments. All affected residents will be notified separately. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact the board.
