Arley and Compton TRA

Arley & Compton Tenants Association has been established for over nine years now and during that time we have really worked hard to improve our estate.  Here are some of the things we have acheived by working with our Housing Manager and other Council Departments:
 
  1. Extensive CCTV installed with the most up to date recording equipment in the Borough
  2. Improved external ground works and lighting around the blocks - including carparking
  3. New and improved lighting to all landings
  4. New carpets to landings throughout the blocks
  5. Flood lighting to all carparks
  6. Recycle facilities now in place outside the blocks
 
Just to name but a few.... 
 
We really need to carry on working together to improve our estate.   A project we are hoping to work on, inconjunction with our Housing Manager, is identifying fencing around the blocks which needs replacing with metal trip fencing, do you think this is a good idea?
 
Why not come along to our public meetings to let know what you think.
