As residents of Victoria Halls Leicester we believe that point 3.18 of the tenancy agreement, which states that we are not to make any noise which can be heard outside the flat, should be with in reason. With this, we agree that noise before midnight should be allowed. Of course, noise disrupting the working environment should be dealt with through personal complaining to the caretakers, and in this case further action may be taken.
We also believe that fines should be issued after a 3 point warning system. This is due to the financial difficulties imposed on the majority of residents. A fairer system would ensure cooperation and respect.
No where in the tenancy agreement does it stipulate that we are not allowed parties in our flat. For this reason we would like the letter RE: Parties/gatherings at Victoria Hall dated 21/01/10 to be retracted.
The level of engagement this petition has received confirms that many of us share the same concerns regarding our current tenancy policies. This momentum strengthens our position as we prepare to present these findings to the management team.

The fines are way too much for a student budget. three warnings is standard for housing and fair for everyone involved.

literally absurd that they charge us for talking in our own flats. university is supposed to be social not like living in a library.
