Available Resources
The extent of enforcement activity undertaken by the council will be determined by the resources available to fund both the revenue and capital related elements of the activity. Officers in the housing team will work closely with officers in the finance and legal teams prior to taking action and other relevant teams who carry out enforcement work to ensure that the council is not being subjected to unnecessary risk.
The council will also work closely with voluntary and charitable agencies to ensure that a range of advice, options and incentives are available for owners.
