The Landlords’ Forums are for any private landlord who has property in the city and wishes to learn more about new legislation and regulations that will affect them and their property(s).
Organised by the authority’s Revenues and Benefits Service, the Forum gives landlords important information, updates of changes in the law and provide a one-stop shop for information and advice.
The Revenues and Benefits Service aims to provide an efficient and effective customer focused service by ensuring the collection of Council Tax and Business Rates and by the timely and accurate payment of Housing and Council Tax Benefit, whilst preventing fraud and error.
The service wants to work more effectively with private landlords to offer an improved service. The Revenues and Benefits Service offers landlords up to date advice on Housing/Council Tax Benefits regulations and procedures as well as assistance with Council Tax legislation, discounts and methods of payment.
Landlord Forums are held every six months and are an ideal opportunity for you to let us know your concerns. Other departments are keen to be involved and we want landlords to take an active role in developing the relationship with their local council. Let us know the issues that concern you and we can make sure they are covered in future forums.
The next Landlords Forum takes place on Tuesday 29th November 2011 . The flyer and agenda give further information .
