Aylesbury Tenants and Leaseholders First
For our Home Page Click Here
We are a group of residents on the Aylesbury – both tenants and leaseholders – fighting to defend our homes. And to defend and PROMOTE genuinely affordable housing everywhere.
We call ourselves “Aylesbury Tenants and Leaseholders First” Why ? – because any regeneration plan must prioritise, defend and improve the quality of life of existing residents.
We believe that the only guarantee of much needed housing for people on lower incomes is to protect the Council Housing that already exists, and for Government to invest directly into building more Council Housing.
REFURBISH DON’T DEMOLISH Genuinely Affordable Council Housing.
And this is the place to join our campaign to do just that. Future pie-in-the-sky must not be used as an excuse to neglect existing needs, with Aylesbury rental income funding improvements in other parts of the borough, whilst the AAAP is used to tick a box to show that “something is being done for the Aylesbury”.
The Council have a plan for the Aylesbury – to nearly double the density, financing a small number of new build Housing Association “social rented” properties by the sale of a large number of neighbouring private homes.
The issue of affordability is absolutely key.
The issue of affordability, genuine guaranteed affordability, and retaining genuinely affordable COUNCIL homes, is absolutely key to whether or not this development is in any shape or form justifiable.
AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERNS ARE KEY
