COMING UP IN FEBRUARY

In a letter to all residents dated 20th December 2016 , Guinness outlined their intention to provide more information to enable residents to review the proposals and provide further opportunities for consultation.

NewmanFrancis have recommended that residents need to appoint their own ITLA (Independent Tenants' and Leaseholders' Advice Service), in response to requests from some residents. Since the beginning of the year we have been working with the Resident Steering Group to support the appointment of a new ITLA.

During February this will be the main activity on the estate. We will be holding an ITLA open evening on the 15th February for all residents to be able to meet the prospective ITLA organisation before one is appointed. (Please see below and overleaf for more information)

Meet the ITLAs Open Evening

15th February 2017 Northwold Estate Community Hall

between 5:00-8:00pm

This event is open to all residents as a drop-in to talk to each ITLA that has been invited to apply for the role. Ask questions, find out

more about each organisation and leave your feedback.

Interested in joining the

Resident Steering Group?

We are specifically looking for more tenants to join to give proportionate representation between leaseholders/ tenants in the group. We will be doing some outreach in February after initial

doorknocking with residents in January. The group meets formally to discuss

and represent your views during the proposals.

It is expected that the ITLA will be appointed by March 2017. Once the ITLA begins working with residents, Guinness will be informing you when further events and activities will take place. The ITLA will then, on behalf of residents assist Guinness to formalise the next phase of the consultation process.

What is an ITLA service?

An ITLA (Independent Tenants' and Leaseholders' Advice Service)is an organisation that will provide clear, unbiased information about how regeneration plans may affect residents, their homes and their community. This includes working with you to ensure residents are fully engaged with the process and can understand and influence any plans that are developed.

Which ITLAs might work at Northwold?

Hackney Council provided Guinness with a list of organisations who are experienced in supporting residents in looking at regeneration plans for their communities, and who have prior experience of working in the London Borough of Hackney.The three ITLAs are:

1.Public Participation Consultation and Research (PPCR) http://www.ppcr.org.uk

2. Source Partnership http://www.sourcepartnership.com

3. Strategic Urban Futures (STUF) http://strategicurbanfutures.com

How will the ITLA be appointed?

After listening to residents' feedback, we would like the ITLA to be appointed with resident input. To do this we are working with the Residents' Steering Group to establish:

1. A tender document brief which will go the three organisations to submit an application to be an ITLA on the Northwold Estate.

2. An evaulation and interview process involving an interview panel of residents to assess the applicants.
