Shared heating system maintenance
Dear Sir/Madam,
I would like to make a freedom of information request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
Please could you answer the following questions.
1. How many times have the council arranged for a shared central heating system (i.e. one that heats multiple houses, such as on an estate) to undergo maintenance since September 2022?
2. For each of these occasions, please provide a start date and end date. For works that have not yet finished, please provide a planned end date or estimated length of project where this is noted.
I would like to remind you of your legal responsibility to respond within 20 days.
Yours faithfully,
TJ Jordan
