"Tracy the shed/garage/filming money just goes into the general City of London Housing coffers and has done for several years now. I agree - an evening security patrol would be beneficial to counter many of the anti-social problems people are having.…"

RCS Site | You can't have your moustache and eat the soup

There's an old Tamil proverb about wanting your moustache and your soup that is a version of "you can't have your cake and eat it". But what if, sometimes, you can...Last month we looked at…Continue

Charles Humphries replied to Lee Bailey's discussion Dangers of u-turning vehicles on Fann Street"I think this is a great outcome for residents. Well done for following it up."
Nick Lee replied to Charles Humphries's discussion Intrusive Tenancy Visits?"Good idea. If it helps sort out all the iffy lettings going on why not, and I don't think 138k split between everyone is too much to pay if a few things get sorted out."
Charles Humphries replied to Lee Bailey's discussion Dangers of u-turning vehicles on Fann Street"Then it sounds like it might be cabs making the trip up from the Museum of London roundabout past Barbican station cruising for fares and then turning round if they don't find any. There are just so unbelievably many! Perhaps we could talk to…"
Charles Humphries replied to Lee Bailey's discussion Dangers of u-turning vehicles on Fann Street"U Turns in Fann Street are perfectly legal. It is that no U turn sign in Aldersgate Street that is causing all the trouble. It would arguably be safer to let traffic U turn in Aldersgate Street where there is good visibility and a fairly wide road,…"
Maria Elizabeth Prior replied to Charles Humphries's discussion Intrusive Tenancy Visits?"If the City want to do this then why should the residents pay? I am not paying for someone to come in here spying on me. Let them chase after illegal sub letters and not genuine residents."
Steve Daszko replied to Charles Humphries's discussion Intrusive Tenancy Visits?"Good point raised Tracy!"
Tracy Batten replied to Charles Humphries's discussion Intrusive Tenancy Visits?"In reply to Christo. I live next door to said flat, it has been standing empty for the past 2 years. It’s a 3 bedroom flat, which has no tenants whatsoever.
I’m not sure what’s going on with the property, as the…"
Tim Godsmark replied to Charles Humphries's discussion Intrusive Tenancy Visits?"What is an issue is that it is costing £138,000 which presumably all residents will be paying for."
Steve Daszko replied to Charles Humphries's discussion Intrusive Tenancy Visits?"I agree with Richard. If you've nothing to hide, then what is the problem!? Well done to the CoL for checking their tenencies. This should be a regular thing. Offenders should be thrown out of their properties straight away."
Richard replied to Charles Humphries's discussion Intrusive Tenancy Visits?"I don't think it is intrusive at all, why shouldn't they check if everything is in order an no one is sub letting? If I owned a property I rented out I would want to check on it every so often. I actually found the last visit quite useful…"
Maria Elizabeth Prior replied to Charles Humphries's discussion Intrusive Tenancy Visits?"I agree Christo. The COL have every right to check properties to make sure only the legal tenants are living there and I support that. However, why would they need a camera and tape measure to check on illegal tenants? "
Steve Daszko replied to Charles Humphries's discussion Intrusive Tenancy Visits?"I don't see any problems with this I had a tenancy visit around 2012 by (name omitted) and everything was fine. It's good that the CoL are checking properties to ensure that only the legal tenants are living there!"

There Are Biscuits. A personal view from the Islington Planning Meeting
Posted on March 5, 2018 at 18:00 1 Comment 1 Like
The man in uniform knows a rabble rouser when he sees one. “Are these… persons with you?” he asks warily eyeing the group of thirty or so Golden Laneites who had braved the blizzard conditions and the strange bio-diesel tang of the No.4 bus to make it up Islington Town Hall. We review the troops.
The council’s porter was a man who’d seen a thing or two in his time. “Just keep it civilised, you know - have a coffee, have a cup of tea… no arguing with the…
