Meeting with PCHA Randolph Avenue tenants

On Monday night we attended the third regular meeting of PCHA with its tenants in Randolph Avenue at the Maida Centre.

The meeting, as usual for PCHA ones, was very lively and direct, with residents letting PCHA know what they thought in very clear tones. We were glad to see that PCHA were listening and that they have made progress since our last meeting in March - they have cleared the back garden, appear to be keeping a closer grip on cleaning schedules, have installed notice boards and are trying to get to grips with the fire alarm issue. Much still to do but we are pleased to see PCHA try to address their very battered reputation on Randolph Avenue after years of doing practically nothing.

PCHA have agreed to go away and do more work on postal boxes, anti-social behaviour and service charges.

We'll keep campaigning for a better deal for PCHA tenants on Randolph Avenue and look forward to the next tenant's meeting towards the end of the year.
