Review of ALMO’s and Housing Management Arrangements – PUBLIC MEETING

Just received this via Leeds Tenants Federation which originates from the Corporate Support, Leeds City Council.

You will be aware of the review of ALMOs and housing management arrangements and that we are current consulting with all those who have an interest in the outcome.

I am writing to remind you that there will be a public meeting tomorrow Tuesday 26 February 2013, 6.30 – 8.00pm at St Chads Parish Centre, Otley Road, Headingley, LS16 5JT. Senior staff from the Council and West North West Homes will be there to explain the process and to answer any questions you may have. We understand that you are involved in a local resident group and we would be very grateful if you could bring this meeting to the attention of as many of your tenants and neighbours as possible – and we hope to see you there.

In addition we have plans to visit the West North West area in a mobile van on Thursday 28 March – so if you would like us to meet with your group, or representatives of it, please let us know.

All Council tenants should have received a “Your Home Your Say leaflet”. But background on the review, including the leaflet, can be found on the web at http://www.leeds.gov.uk/residents/Pages/Your-Home-Your-Say.aspx
