MOTION NO.9

MOTION: Councillor M. Johansson

That the Chief Executive investigate the conditions of windows in all the houses in the Lett's Field estate as there has been problems in a number of houses with broken handles.

REPORT:

Stock condition surveys have been completed for 16 out of the 36 social homes within Lett's Field. Analysis of the findings from the surveys indicated that there is an issue with 4 windows at 3 separate properties. These repairs were promptly referred to and successfully completed by the area contractor.

The local Area Foreman of Works conducted further inspections on 16 of the 20 remaining homes to assess the condition of window handles. All necessary repairs identified during these inspections have also been completed.

Contact information was left at the remaining properties where access was not obtained. Tenants have been requested to contact the office to schedule a suitable inspection appointment. Once access is granted and the inspection completed, any necessary works at these properties will be prioritised.
