The Council is a landlord to 7,861 tenants and over 980 leaseholders.
It also has powers and responsibilities to promote a balanced housing market through:
- planning powers to deliver new affordable housing
- enforcement powers against owners of unfit or empty properties
- legal responsibilities to respond to homeless people and seek to prevent homelessness
- by providing advice to landlords and others
Housing is key to the Council, and is one of the four sections that the Council's medium term objectives are grouped under.
The four sections are:
- Better services
- A strong economy and attractive environment
- Better housing
- A healthy and thriving community
