In the last few
days, the Government has announced that funding is being made available to
Council’s nationally to tackle rogue landlords.
Hyndburn
Council has been successful in attracting £112,500 of extra funding which will
enable the Council to take further action to deal with the small
minority of landlords who fail to meet their basic responsibilities.
The
funding is part of a package of proposals to ensure that private tenants feel
confident to demand better standards and management of their property by
landlords
Cllr Clare Cleary,
Cabinet Member for Housing, said, “We take the issue of poor housing standards
very seriously. This funding from the Department for Communities and Local
Government will provide a welcome boost to the work the Council already does to
protect tenants, target rogue landlord’s and to also support and encourage good
landlords.”
