Do you have ongoing issues with your council house in Milton Keynes?

    MKFM is investigating claims from listeners of unresolved problems residents are experiencing with their Milton Keynes council-owned property. Tell us your unresolved issues now.

    After receiving several claims of unresolved issues with listener's council-owned houses, MKFM questioned Cllr Peter Marland, the Leader of Milton Keynes Council, in a recent interview on the general state of council properties, the process of reporting any problems and the delegation of responsibilities to have these resolved.

    Amongst addressing residents living in council-owned properties across the city who have reported problems with rat infestations, Cllr Marland said, "We had too many houses that weren't up to the proper standard. We invested £165 million in getting them up to standard and I think there has been a huge increase in the houses that are to standard. But we are looking at things like what is important; is having a brand new toilet if you move into a property far more important than fixing a leak. Because ultimately it is residents' money that we are using and at the moment some of those standards for moving into those properties - before people are given those properties - it is worth looking at whether for some things we can say 'actually, that toilet was only put in two years ago and give it a good clean' rather than having a policy of removing and replacing all bathrooms."
