Resident’s Council

Introduction

The Resident Council consists of one representative from each corridor and a couple of representatives from the apartments. The council makes decisions concerning the running of the dormitory and not least the dormitory facilities. The Residents Council meets once a month except in January, July and August, and in addition to that they hold two meetings when approving of budget and accounts respectively – the last two are residents meetings where all residents living at Nybrogård may attend and debate. The council meetings take place in Danish unless English is wanted from some of the persons present.
