Rent Increase Consultation 2020/21

Overview

The Council approved the Housing financial business plan in 2018 which set objectives for the next 5 years.  

The proposed objectives are:

• We want to keep our focus on front line service delivery so we can maintain a high level of satisfaction.  In our Tenant Satisfaction and Aspiration Survey 2019, 91% of tenants were either very or fairly satisfied with the overall service provided by Clackmannanshire Council as a landlord. 
   
• To continue to invest in Council housing stock maintaining it to the Scottish Housing Quality Standard and Energy Efficiency Standards.
   
• To continue to deliver kitchen, bathroom and front door replacements to the enhanced Local Clackmannanshire Standard.
   
• To minimise where possible the overall debt carried by the Housing Revenue Account.

Why your views matter

We are required to consult on changes to the rent structure and major policy decisions affecting tenants under the 2001 Housing Scotland Act.

This short consultation should take less than 5 minutes to complete.

What happens next

Report for decision will go to Council on 13 February 2020
