Procedure for conducting OSS

The general meeting of owners of premises in an apartment building , in accordance with Part 1 of Article 44 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation, is recognized as the management body of the house. The general meeting is held so that the management company, together with the property owners, can discuss a number of topical issues and problems on the agenda by voting and making decisions.

The general meeting of homeowners can be held in three forms (Article 44.1 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation):

• in-person voting - in the presence of owners of premises in the house to discuss issues on the agenda and make decisions on issues put to vote;
• absentee voting - by means of a questionnaire, if the meeting in person did not take place due to lack of quorum (Part 1 of Article 47, Article 47.1 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation).
• in-person and absentee voting - using the GIS housing and communal services system (Part 3 of Article 47 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation). The decision to use the GIS Housing and Public Utilities when conducting the OSS in the form of absentee voting is made by the general meeting of premises owners (Clause 3.2, Part 2, Article 44, Part 1, Article 47.1 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation).

In-person and absentee voting

When and why is it necessary to conduct an OSS in the form of in-person and absentee voting of owners ? After all, for this there are separate forms of in-person and absentee voting. The thing is that both of these forms do not always bring results, since often there is simply not a quorum to make important decisions at the general meeting of homeowners.

In-person and absentee voting combines both forms of conducting an OSS and allows you to discuss issues on the agenda in person and make decisions on them, as well as transfer decisions of homeowners by absentee voting within the prescribed period to the address specified in the notice of the event (Part 3 Article 47 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation). Read more about this in our article.

This is convenient because if during the in-person voting there was not a quorum to make decisions on the issues on the agenda, then it can be achieved through absentee voting. Particularly relevant is the in-person and absentee voting form of homeowners when considering agenda items that require decisions to be made by 2/3 of the votes of the owners of premises in the apartment building (parts 1-3.1, 3.2-3.5 of Article 44 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation). For example, these could be financial issues related to lending or the need to revise tariffs or carry out landscaping of the local area.

Step-by-step instructions for conducting OSS in the form of in-person and absentee voting

Step 1. Announcement

Any OSS begins with the announcement of the event and the convening of homeowners for it. an annual general meeting must be held in the second quarter of each year (part 1 of article 45 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation). In addition, at the initiative of the management company, homeowners or an initiative group, extraordinary OSS can gather in the apartment building (parts 2, 6 and 7 of Article 45, as well as clause 8 of Article 148 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation).

Step 2. Preparation

Formulate the agenda of the OSS, decide on the form of voting (in-person, absentee or in-person). When voting in person or in absentia, the agenda must be the same for both forms.

To conduct in-person or absentee voting, select the time and place for the OSS to discuss issues. Prepare an information message about holding a general meeting of homeowners (Order of the Ministry of Construction No. 411/pr dated July 31, 2014). You will also need OSS protocol , a register of owners of premises in this apartment building, and decision forms on agenda items.

Step 3. Notification

You must notify each owner of the premises in this apartment building by means of a written notice against signature, sending a registered letter to his address or posting on an information board in a place accessible to all residents 10 days before the date of the general meeting (Part 4 of Article 45 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation ).

The notice of the general meeting must contain complete and reliable information about the initiator of the general meeting, the form of voting, the date, place and time of the event. The notification must also necessarily contain the agenda items and the procedure for familiarizing participants with the information and materials that will be presented at the event. When holding a general meeting in the form of in-person or absentee voting , the message will also need to indicate the deadline for accepting decisions of homeowners, the place or address where these decisions should be sent (Part 5 of Article 45 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation).

When conducting an OSS in the form of in-person and absentee voting using the GIS Housing and Communal Services , the notification must additionally indicate information about the administrator of the OSS (name - for legal entities and full name - for individuals). In addition, the place and actual address, the date and time of the start and end of voting, the procedure and procedure for the reception by the administrator of the OSS of written decisions of homeowners on the agenda items are indicated (Part 4 of Article 47.1 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation).

The in-person form of voting by homeowners involves both in-person and absentee voting, therefore, in the message about the general meeting, it is necessary to indicate 2 dates: the start of in-person voting and the time before which decisions are made by owners voting in absentia. Both dates are set 10 days before homeowners receive notice.

The sequence of the in-person and absentee parts of in-person voting is not defined, so both forms can be carried out either sequentially or in parallel, or even one form can be “inside” the other. The latter option is possible if the start date for accepting absentee decisions is set earlier than the time of the in-person meeting, and the end date for accepting absentee decisions is, accordingly, later than the date of the in-person meeting.

Step 4. Carrying out

When holding a general meeting in the form of in-person and absentee voting , participants must be given the opportunity to discuss issues on the agenda and submit voting forms within the prescribed period to the place or address specified in the notice (Part 3 of Article 47 of the RF Housing Code).

Voting using the GIS Housing and Communal Services is carried out by the owners of premises in the apartment building in person, indicating the decision on each item on the agenda in electronic form. It is also possible to transfer the decision to the OSS administrator in writing before the end date and time of voting (Part 6, Article 47.1 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation).

Decisions of the OSS on agenda items are made by a majority vote of the total number of homeowners participating in the meeting (Part 1 of Article 46 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation). The exception is decisions that are made by a majority of at least 2/3 of the votes of the total number of owners of premises in apartment buildings (clauses 1 - 3.1, part 2, article 44, part 1, article 46 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation).

Step 5. Registration of voting results

The decision of the OCC is formalized in a protocol (Part 1, Article 46 of the RF Housing Code). In the case of an in-person and absentee meeting, the in-person and absentee votes are summed up, so the OSS protocol is drawn up alone. Decisions and minutes of the OSS are official documents certifying facts that entail legal consequences for the owners of premises in an apartment building in the form of responsibilities for the maintenance of common property in a given building. All decisions and minutes of the general meeting must be posted in the GIS Housing and Communal Services by the initiator of the meeting.

The minutes of the general meeting must contain the date, place and time of the general meeting and summing up the results, the agenda, the presence of a quorum, the number of votes “For”, “Against” and “Abstained” on each issue. There is no approved form of the protocol yet, but there is a draft Order of the Ministry of Construction on the preparation of OSS protocols.

The minutes of the OSS are signed by the chairman and secretary of the general meeting, as well as members of the counting commission (clause 22 section 6, clause 15 section 7 of the Methodological Recommendations approved by Order of the Ministry of Construction of the Russian Federation No. 411/pr dated July 31, 2014).

Regardless of the form of voting, the decision of homeowners on issues on the voting agenda must indicate (Part 5.1, Article 48 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation):

• information about the voting participant;
• information about the document confirming the ownership of the apartment/room in the apartment building of the voting participant;
• decisions on each item on the agenda: “for”, “against” and “abstained”.

The initiator of the general meeting must provide copies of the decisions and minutes of the general meeting to his management company within 10 days after the event (Part 1 of Article 46 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation).

Decisions of the general meeting of owners of premises in an apartment building, adopted based on voting results using the GIS Housing and Communal Services, are automatically formed into the OSS protocol and posted in the system within one hour after the end of voting (Part 11 of Article 47.1 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation).

The management company , within 5 days from the receipt of copies of the decisions and minutes of the OSSS, must, in the manner prescribed by law, send them to the State Housing Property Inspectorate for storage for 3 years, including using the GIS Housing and Communal Services (Part 1.1 of Article 46 of the Housing Code of the Russian Federation). That is, whether you hold an in-person meeting of homeowners the old fashioned way or using the system, in any case, copies of the decisions and minutes of the OSS will be sent to the State Housing Property Inspectorate. Only in the first case these will be paper copies, and in the second, electronic versions.

Step 6. Informing about voting results and decisions made

The voting results and decisions made at the OSS are brought to the attention of all homeowners by the initiator of the meeting within 10 days from the date of their adoption. The information is posted in a building accessible to all residents (Part 3 of Article 46 of the RF Housing Code). For example, on an information board or on the front door at the entrance.

Step 7. Posting voting results

Decisions of the owners of premises in apartment buildings, adopted during absentee voting at a general meeting, must be published no later than 10 days from the date of the general meeting in four sources of information disclosure approved by law:

• on the website Reform LCD
