Rules for carrying out activities for managing apartment buildings and the Minimum list of services and works

Of course, the management authority does not have the right to fulfill obligations for the maintenance and repair of the common property of the apartment building anyhow. To regulate this point, there is another regulatory legal act - Rules for the implementation of activities for the management of apartment buildings (approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of May 15, 2013 No. 416) (hereinafter referred to as the Rules for the implementation of activities for the management of )

.

These Rules

contain not only the responsibilities of the management organization, but also the responsibilities of the apartment owners themselves.
In particular, the Rules
establish the procedure for holding a general meeting of owners, control over the implementation of decisions of the general meeting of owners and other issues.

As for the direct responsibilities of the management organization, according to the Rules for the implementation of activities for the management of apartment buildings

,
her responsibilities include:
1) organizing emergency dispatch service for apartment buildings, including by concluding a contract for the provision of services with an organization engaged in emergency dispatch service activities ( clauses 9-17 of the Rules

).

Emergency dispatch service can be carried out either by the OU itself or by a special organization with which the OU has entered into a corresponding agreement.

The emergency dispatch service must operate around the clock.

Who is the provider of utility services: HOA, management company or RSO?

The emergency dispatch service provides:

– immediate elimination of blockages in the intra-building engineering drainage system and garbage chutes inside apartment buildings;

– elimination of emergency damage to in-house engineering systems of cold and hot water supply, drainage and in-house heating and power supply systems.

In other words, if there is some kind of emergency in the utility networks of an apartment building, or another incident, for example, an apartment flooding, every resident should be able to call the dispatcher and call the appropriate specialists to troubleshoot the problem.

2) formation of a list of works and services for the maintenance and repair of common property in apartment buildings ( clauses 5-8 of the Rules

).

In accordance with Part 1 of Article 162 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation

, when a management organization is selected by a general meeting of owners of premises in an apartment building, a management agreement is concluded with each owner of premises in such a building on the terms specified in the decision of this general meeting.

The general meeting of owners must determine the list of works and services for the management of an apartment building, services and works for the maintenance and repair of common property in an apartment building, as well as the amount of payment for the maintenance and repair of residential premises.

In accordance with clause 5 of the Rules for the implementation of activities for the management of apartment buildings

, a draft list of services and works is compiled and presented to the owners of the premises by the management organization.

What services and work should the MA perform?

In accordance with Part 1.2 of Article 161 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation

,
clause 3 of the Rules for the implementation of activities for the management of apartment buildings
, management is carried out in relation to each individual apartment building, taking into account the composition, design features, degree of physical wear and tear and technical condition of the common property, depending on the geodetic and climatic conditions of the location of the apartment building, as well as based on from
the Minimum list of services and works necessary to ensure proper maintenance of common property in an apartment building (approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of April 3, 2013 No. 290) (hereinafter referred to as the Minimum List )
.

At the same time, the contract with the management company may include additional services that are not listed in the Minimum List

services, but services from
the Minimum List
must be included in the contract.

The list of services, which is reflected in the agreement with the management authority, must also contain the volume, cost, frequency or schedule for the provision of services and the performance of work on the maintenance and repair of common property in an apartment building.

Minimum list

services and work necessary to ensure the proper maintenance of common property in an apartment building
includes the following sections:
- work necessary for the proper maintenance of load-bearing structures (foundations, walls, columns and pillars, floors and coverings, beams, crossbars, stairs, load-bearing roof elements) and non-load-bearing structures (partitions, interior decoration, floors) of apartment buildings;

– work necessary for the proper maintenance of equipment and engineering support systems that are part of the common property in an apartment building;

– work and services for the maintenance of other common property in an apartment building.

Because the list of services and works for each apartment building is determined taking into account the structural elements

and other features of the apartment building, the contract with the management organization may
not include
only such services from
the Minimum List
that do not relate to this apartment building. For example, if the house does not have an elevator, then the services for its maintenance in the contract will be clearly superfluous, and if natural gas is not supplied to the house, and all the residents have electric stoves, then servicing the gas risers is unlikely to be useful to anyone in the house.

All other services listed in the Minimum List

, are mandatory for inclusion in the agreement with the MA, and, accordingly, are binding on the MA.

Repair of entrances to apartment buildings by management companies: how to get it done, how much it costs

In accordance with clause 2 of the Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated April 3, 2013 No. 290

the requirements applied
by the Minimum List
apply to legal relations arising from management agreements for apartment buildings that arose after the day this resolution came into force (the document came into force on April 20, 2013).
That is, if an agreement with the MA was concluded earlier than this date, then the Minimum List
for such an agreement is not mandatory, if later, it is mandatory, and all items from the list related to your MKD must be fulfilled.

So, what management organizations should do is discussed in the Minimum List

. But as we noted above, the management agreement must also contain the frequency or schedule for the provision of services. What is the frequency of providing a particular service, or what is the maximum period for eliminating certain faults should the contract contain? Is there a document that sets regulatory deadlines?

There is such a document that establishes technical requirements for the maintenance of common property and deadlines - this is the Decree of the State Construction Committee of the Russian Federation dated September 27, 2003 No. 170 “On approval of the Rules and Standards for the Technical Operation of the Housing Stock” (hereinafter referred to as the Rules and Standards for the Technical Operation of the Housing Stock )

, which we already mentioned above when we examined the letter from the Ministry of Construction.

However, the application of this document, or more precisely, its mandatory application, raises many questions.

The fact is that in accordance with Part 2.3 of Article 161 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation

, management organizations must ensure proper maintenance of common property, in accordance with the rules and requirements established by
the Government of the Russian Federation
.
The rules and regulations for the technical operation of the housing stock, which, by the way, were approved even before the entry into force of the RF Housing Code
, are not a normative act approved by the Government of the Russian Federation.

In the above-mentioned Letter of the Ministry of Regional Development of the Russian Federation dated October 14, 2008 No. 26084‑SK/14

, and also in
the Letter of the Ministry of Regional Development of the Russian Federation dated October 15, 2010 No. 10992-08/IP-OG
it is stated that
the Rules and Standards for the Technical Operation of the Housing Stock, approved by Resolution of the State Construction Committee of Russia dated September 27, 2003 No. 170
, can be considered as an act of a recommendatory nature.

However, supervisory authorities, when bringing management organizations to administrative responsibility for improper performance of duties, recognize that the latter are bound by the above-mentioned Resolution of the State Construction Committee

. A similar opinion has been developed in judicial practice.

In particular, in the Decision of the Arbitration Court of the Irkutsk Region dated November 12, 2013 in case No. A19‑6285/2013

it is said that the arguments that
the Rules and Standards for the Technical Operation of the Housing Stock
are not approved by the Government of the Russian Federation and are advisory in nature cannot be taken into account.
Requirements and standards for the maintenance and servicing of housing stock are determined by Rules No. 170
, which are mandatory for execution by both owners of premises and management organizations.

This document lists what exactly should be included in the maintenance and maintenance of a house, and also indicates the parameters and conditions that, for the safety of people and the safety of a residential building, the building structures of this house must in any case meet, regardless of the wishes of the owners of its individual premises and inclusion their respective works and services into an agreement with the management company.

The management organization is obliged to provide favorable and safe living conditions for citizens, carry out actions for the maintenance and repair of common property or attract other persons to provide services and perform work on the maintenance and repair of such property.

A similar conclusion is also contained in the Resolution of the Fourth Arbitration Court of Appeal dated January 17, 2014 in case No. A19‑11723/2013

.

The court points out that the conclusions that the Rules and norms for the technical operation of the housing stock, approved by the Resolution of the State Construction Committee of September 27, 2003 No. 170

, are advisory in nature and are not mandatory for management organizations to perform when performing functions for maintaining houses, are rejected due to the following.
These Rules and Standards establish requirements for the maintenance and repair of residential buildings. By virtue of paragraph three of clause 1.1 of the Rules and Standards of Technical Operation,
these Rules define the requirements and procedure for maintenance and repair of the housing stock in order to ensure compliance with established standards for maintenance and repair by the owners of the housing stock or authorized managers and organizations of various organizational and legal forms engaged in servicing the housing stock .

Thus, we see a clear contradiction between the conclusions of judicial practice and the conclusions made in the Letters of the Ministry of Regional Development.

Please note that letters from relevant departments are not normative acts.

, i.e.
are not mandatory for use, but only reflect the official position of the department. Much more important is law enforcement practice, which reflects the approach of the courts to this problem. And the courts, as we see, recognize the binding nature of
the Rules and Standards for the Technical Operation of Housing Stock for management organizations.

Request for utility fee reconciliation

If the minimum list

answers the question
“What to do?”
management organizations that service apartment buildings, then
the Rules and Standards for the Technical Operation of the Housing Stock
answer the question
“How to do this?”
Rules and regulations for the technical operation of housing stock

contain a very voluminous list of requirements that management organizations must comply with.
For example, this document contains a list of work that the management organization must perform in preparation for seasonal operation of the house, how staircases, attics, basements, and the surrounding area should be maintained. In addition, the Rules and Standards for the Technical Operation of the Housing Stock
also contain regulatory deadlines for the completion of certain works, which the management organization does not have the right to change upward in the contract.

For example, the deadline for repairing roof leaks is 1 day. If your management does not fix the leak for weeks, then this is a reason to contact the relevant authorities, including the judiciary.

In general, in the Rules and Standards for the Technical Operation of Housing Stock

contains many interesting deadlines, if not met, it is necessary to demand from the management organization to reduce the cost of its services, because services provided were of poor quality. We will talk about this in more detail later.

Now we will give only some of the deadlines (from the moment of their discovery or the application of the residents, during which the management is obliged to take appropriate measures to eliminate malfunctions):

1. Replacement of glass in the entrance should be carried out no more than 1 day in advance in the winter season and no more than 3 days in advance in the summer.

2. Loss of connection of individual bricks with the masonry of external walls, threatening their loss - no more than 1 day (with immediate fencing of the danger zone). If, God forbid, such a brick falls on someone, or it falls on someone’s parked car, it’s the fault of the building department, which doesn’t look after the walls of houses well.

3. Short circuit in elements of the intra-house electrical network - take immediate action.

4. Malfunctions in the input distribution device associated with the replacement of fuses, circuit breakers, switches - no more than 3 hours.

5. Malfunctions in the lighting system of common premises (replacing light bulbs in the entrance) - no more than 7 days.

6 Removing ice and icicles - as necessary.

7. Washing staircases - at least once a month.

Rules and regulations for the technical operation of housing stock

are recommended for study by every apartment owner in an apartment building. All works are divided into blocks, so you can easily find those that interest you.

Many residents of apartment buildings, unfortunately, do not have information regarding the list of responsibilities of the management authority, and even more so do not know the requirements for fulfilling these duties. This leads to a lack of control over the activities of the management company, and, as a consequence, to failure to fulfill the obligations assigned to the management company by the agreement with the owners.

As we noted above, the MA fulfills its duties on the basis of an agreement concluded with each owner. In this case, one copy of the agreement must be kept by the owner of the premises, and the other by the management organization. If you do not have a copy of the agreement, you must contact the MA in writing and demand that you provide the agreement and all appendices to it. If you don’t have a contract, then how will you prove that you’re right if you don’t even have anything to refer to?

Note also that in one apartment building, the terms of the contract must be the same for all residents and must be approved by the general meeting when choosing a management method and a management organization.
