By the relevant owners, owners' congress or property management company as the main body to put forward suggestions for use; The owners' meeting or the owners who account for more than two thirds of the total number discuss and adopt suggestions for use; Apply to the housing safety and equipment management department; After approval, the public maintenance fund will be allocated to the maintenance unit.

2. Emergency situation

If there is an emergency, more than two-thirds of the owners do not need to pass. And pay within 24 days (working days) from the date of reply from the district/county construction Committee or the Housing Authority.

Finally, I would like to remind you warmly that when the owners pay the public maintenance fund by themselves, they should fully exercise their supervisory power and pay more attention to the affairs of the community when the housing management department publicizes it. This is the most effective way to avoid the abuse of public maintenance funds at present.
