I have formally requested that the scrutiny committee take an in depth look at how we manage, govern and control HMO's ( house's of multiple occupancy).
This is an area that I know causes no end of personal strife to many people in Boston, and something which most if not all councillors will never have to face.
However, I feel that as a council we have a duty to deal with issues that the people of our Borough feel concern them most, and this is one of many areas that falls within that category.
The controls and enforcement that allow such matters to arise are in need of a real debate to establish how best to resolve current and future issues where the blight of poorly managed HMO's is affecting the daily lives of those who have to put up with them.
I shall keep you posted on progress.
Please remember all these meetings are open to the public, and you have every right to attend.
