Council Retains 'Optimised' ALMO in Tri-Partite Agreement

A London-based ALMO has agreed a "unique agreement" with its council to continue managing the local authority's 16,500 homes.  The tri-partite agreement between Hounslow Council, its ALMO Hounslow Homes and the tenants and residents will also see the ALMO able to deliver services to outside organisations to generate additional income.  The deal includes a protocol that will see the Hounslow Federation of Tenants and Residents Associations (HFTRA) becoming directly involved in delivering improvements to services.  An independent tenant scrutiny board is also being set up to strengthen tenants’ influence in how their homes and neighbourhoods are run.  Read more on Hounslow Council’s website.
