Copper pipe theft claims are increasing, and so are disputes about excesses.

Trustees often assume “The owner pays because it serves their section.”
But PMR 23.2(b) says something different. In a nutshell, it says that excess follows maintenance responsibility, not proximity.

• Section responsibility = owner

Understanding this distinction avoids conflict and incorrect cost allocations.
