ACTIVITEITEN
On September 13, 2025, the joint (tenants and owners) BBQ took place and was a success. A total of 130 residents attended, including 17 children. Photos were taken, but for privacy reasons, the Board cannot publish them without permission. If you attended the BBQ, please let us know if you object to publication.
The annual General Meeting of the Residents' Association De Hoge Heren took place on June 3, 2025. Attendance was – once again – disappointing.
On February 11, 2025, there was a walk-in meeting about the redesign of the inner garden (5th floor) and in particular about the design of the play area for children. The turnout was disappointing!
On January 18, 2025, the residents of De Hoge Heren said goodbye to Maria (a member of the cleaning team). Maria has retired.
The group De Hoge Dames meet regularly. We have a drink and a chat together and according to the participants it is always fun. If you are interested in De Hoge Dames, you can reach them via bestuur@dehogeheren.nl.

The GMM will take place in March or April 2026.
IMPORTANT: Complaint handling
It is really important for you as a tenant that you register your complaints with My Vesteda under - Contact New contact/Complaint. A different procedure applies to owners in tower A.
Complaints are officially registered with VESTEDA in this way, and the Board of the Residents' Association uses these official complaints as input for regular discussions with VESTEDA. While the building manager is the right person to address fellow residents, they are not responsible for registering complaints; you, as a tenant, must do that yourself!
Settlement of servicebijdragen 2023 en 2024 Service contribution settlement for 2023 and 2024 for tenants. After many questions and corrections (in favor of the tenants), the board (Guus Jacobs) has approved the service contribution settlement for 2023 and 2024. Payment for 2024 has already been made, and 2023 is coming up.
The municipality has announced that the indoor waste containers will be replaced by underground waste containers at various locations on the street. All residents have been informed of this by letter and draft decision. Objections have now been filed with the Council of State (RvS). It is expected that this will cause the necessary delay. It is not known when the indoor containers will be discontinued and we will therefore only be able to dispose of our waste outside on the street.
