Directors of your Residents Management Company, Channels (Chelmsford) Management Company Ltd, will be holding an Annual General Meeting on Thursday 18th January 2024 at 6.30pm at Beaulieu Community Centre, 17 Centenary Way, Chelmsford. CM1 6AU.
This will not be a ‘town hall’ style session. It is a management company members only general meeting and a formal notice with papers should have been received via your preferred correspondence method accordingly.
The notice/proxy form, agenda and proposal for election of directors form can be viewed/downloaded here:
Please ensure that returns for the meeting (specifically if you wish to stand as a director or appoint a proxy) are delivered to Remus no later than midday on Monday 8th January 2024.
Directors would like to draw your attention to a proposal from Hugo Kirby (PG Property Management and Channels CIC) in relation to provision of local area management. This will be discussed at the AGM, which hopefully Hugo can attend, and residents will be asked to indicate their preference.
You do not need to inform Remus of your intention to attend the AGM. The venue is large enough to accommodate all those that wish to participate however you will need to respond as outlined above if you want to appoint a proxy or stand to be a director.
If you wish to stand as a director it is important to understand that as an officer of a limited company, you must:
- Follow the company’s rules, shown in its Articles of Association;
- Keep company records and report changes;
- File your accounts and your Company Tax Return;
- Tell other shareholders if you might personally benefit from a transaction the company makes;
Directors are able to hire other people to manage some of these things day-to-day (for example, Remus or an accountant) however it is the directors that remain legally responsible for the company’s records, accounts and performance.
To ensure there is sensible and practical governance in relation to the running of the RMC, the following will be proposed at the AGM:
- To limit the number of directors to 7;
- To use dedicated sub committees where necessary;
- To assign each director specific roles;
A member must be up to date with their service charge payments to stand as director and regular attendance at board meetings is mandatory.
Directors look forward to seeing members on Thursday 18th January 2024 at the Annual General Meeting.
