Owners and property "talk about the road": who will change the corridor lights when they are broken?

"The light bulb in my downstairs aisle has been broken for many days, and the property just won't be repaired. Let me buy a light bulb myself. " Yesterday, Ms. Cheng, who lives in Unit 4, Building 26, Wang Xiang Phase II, called the hotline of this newspaper and said that the public light bulb in the garage corridor downstairs of her house was broken and the property was delayed, which made her feel very inconvenient and puzzled. "That light is a public light, why not replace the property?" Ms. Cheng issued such a question. The owner asked if the light bulbs in the corridor were not in the property management? Ms. Cheng said that there was originally a lighting lamp in the garage corridor downstairs to facilitate the use of the whole unit. A few days ago, this light broke down. Ms. Cheng asked the property management company for maintenance. The plumber from the property management company came and said that it would be fine to repair it, but Ms. Cheng had to buy a new light bulb herself. Ms. Cheng is very dissatisfied with this statement. "This lamp belongs to the public lighting of the community. How can the owner buy a lamp to change it? " Ms. Cheng doesn't understand this, and replacing the light bulb will go away. Ms. Cheng said that in the past few days, she has been kept in the dark since she entered the garage aisle, and the owners of their units are very complaining about this. "It is troublesome to push the cart into the garage at night and not see it." Ms. Cheng said that she went to the property several times for this light bulb, but the property company always insisted that she buy a new light bulb, which made her very angry. Ms. Cheng believes that the lights in the garage corridor belong to the community public lighting, and the property company should replace them, so the owners have no way to buy new light bulbs. Yesterday morning, the reporter came to the property management office of Wang Xiang Community Phase II (Peonika Garden). Hearing the reporter's purpose, Director Ma of the property company is also full of bitterness. Director Ma said that corridor lights do belong to public lighting, generally speaking, they do belong to property management companies, but the second phase of property management is different from other communities. The property management company does not charge public energy consumption, and the corridor lights have always been the responsibility of the users themselves. Subsequently, Director Ma also showed the reporter the property management contract of Shimao Garden in Suqian Community. In the contract, the reporter saw in the third line of Article 9 that "public energy consumption is exempted, and all users are responsible for the replacement and maintenance of electricity and corridor lights." At the end of the contract, there are seals of Wang Xiang Phase II Property Company and the owners' committee. Director Ma said that according to the contract, the second-phase property management company has never charged public energy consumption, so the corridor lights are also the responsibility of the owners themselves. "The replacement of corridor lights in Wang Xiang Phase II has always been like this. In the past seven or eight years, the property has not received public energy consumption. " Director Ma said that he also explained the contents of the contract to Ms. Cheng, but Ms. Cheng just wouldn't listen, which made him very helpless. "If the family buys a new light bulb, the property plumber will be on standby and replace the light bulb immediately." Director Ma also said that he would continue to communicate with Ms. Cheng, hoping to solve this matter satisfactorily. According to the lawyer's opinion, the cost of replacing the light bulb should be paid by the whole unit. "Suqian City Property Management Measures" stipulates that "the collection and payment fees for elevators, pumps, central air conditioners, public lighting, public water, etc. shall be accounted for separately ... The specific allocation method shall be determined by the owners' committee and the property service enterprise through consultation". However, the second phase of Wang Xiang did not charge public energy consumption fees. How to change the light bulb in the corridor? Yesterday, the reporter contacted Hu Jianqiao, a lawyer from Suqian Branch of Jiangsu Zhongshan Mingjing Law Firm. Mr. Hu said that Wang Xiang Phase II Property Services Company had reached an agreement with the owners' committee in the contract that public energy consumption would not be charged, so the cost of replacing the light bulbs in the corridor should be borne by all households using the light bulbs. "Because the light bulb is in the garage aisle, all residents in the unit will use it, and the cost of replacing the light bulb will be paid by all residents in the unit building." Lawyer Hu said that the property management company can also agree with the residents of the unit building to charge the replacement fee for the light bulb, and then replace the light bulb in the corridor.
