As a true Scarborian, born and bred, I have to pinch myself at the fantastic things that have been happening to my home town in the last few years. It has created a real feel good factor that is tangible right across the town.

Cllr Derek Bastiman

Housing Enabling

In December 2003 the Council transferred its housing stock to a newly formed Registered Social Landlord, Yorkshire Coast Homes. Following stock transfer, the Council still has a wide range of responsibilities in relation to Housing. These responsibilities are generally referred to as the Strategic Enabling Role.

In our Enabling Role, we co-ordinate the work of our partners to meet the housing needs of the Borough. This work includes the development of a Housing Strategy, the promotion and development of additional housing and improvements to the quality of all accommodation across the Borough.
 
We also have a number of services that we have a retained legal obligation to provide, including:
  • Management of the Housing Register
  • Homelessness
  • Housing information, aid and advice
  • Private Sector Housing
  • Housing Renewal Assistance
 
The Council also plays a role in monitoring the activities of Yorkshire Coast Homes to ensure that our promises and commitments made to tenants before stock transfer are met.
