There’s a difference between retaining responsibility for maintenance and demanding their buildings are all freshly painted isn’t there? OP said on all other leaseholds the council demand painting, I just asked for proof.
They are probably trying to arrange paint paint sponsorship with Dulux so they don’t have to buy any.
The ground was rushed and poorly finished and it was showing when we last played there another year on and little work done it won’t be improving, when it was built up wonder how long they thought it’s useable life was I would imagine how it could be under 50 years.
