Received a report
setting out proposals to introduce new Conditions of Tenancy in
order to strengthen the Councils fight against Anti Social
Behaviour and to modernise the existing tenancy agreement, which
has become dated since it original launch some years ago.
Agreed, in order to
modernise the Conditions of Tenancy to take account of issues that
have become relevant in recent years and assist in tackling Anti
Social Behaviour, to:
- The wording and
content of the new Conditions of Tenancy, as set out in Appendix A
of the report;
- The document being
illustrated and prepared with corporate branding prior to a draft
copy being sent to every tenant in the Borough as part of the
required consultation process;
- Additional costs
for the implementation of the new Conditions of Tenancy, to a
maximum of £116,000, to be met from existing budgets of the
Housing Revenue Account; and
- Officers
progressing the gathering of photographic ID evidence, as set out
in Paragraph 4 of the report, based on tenants providing their own
passport sized photographs.
