Nottingham City Homes update report PDF 227 KB Report of the Chief Executive of Nottingham City Homes Additional documents: Minutes: Kristian Murden, Area Housing Manager at Nottingham City Homes (NCH), presented an update to the Committee:
(a)
a consultation exercise was held
recently with Winchester and Woodthorpe
residents to discuss future improvement works including external
wall insulation and heating upgrades. Positive feedback was
received and artists impressions of the improvements were taken
favourably; (b)
fencing upgrades in Northwood Crescent and Springfield Street are
now complete, and other areas are being investigated to see if they
would benefit from a similar scheme; (c) NCH have recently taken over the caretaking of the Frobisher and Wilmington garden flats. This has already had a positive impact on the tenants as they have a caretaker on a daily basis so the areas are kept very clean and tidy.
The following comments were made during the discussion which followed:
(d)
the positive consultation from residents of Winchester and
Woodthorpe is very positive,
considering there will be major work and upheaval for them whilst
this is ongoing; (e) there are some gaps in the new fencing on Northwood Crescent.
RESOLVED to
(1)
note the update and performance information; (2)
note the allocation of funds for 2016/17: Sherwood - £41,993.09 Berridge - £6,860.83
(3) investigate the gaps in the fencing at Northwood Crescent and resolve these. |

There has also been reductions in shoplifting and anti-social
behaviour; (d)
at the year end all crime was down by
4%. Violence has increased by 19% but burglary, robbery and vehicle

the news, but the police is working with the prison to prevent
this; (e) the sergeant for Sherwood is now Nick Wealthall, the beat managers are the same as before and the area is losing one Community Support Officer. A new Facebook page has been launched for policing in the area and has been very successful;
Committee members would like to see crime figures included in the ward report as they used to be. The new ward report format is in a period of review so this will be fed back.
