Burnley council to take back control of calico housing fix the run down homes

Rejected 10 signatures

What the petition asks

So many people are suffering with bad damp issues so many repairs left undealt with communications skills are poor ever since calico took over the houses and areas are going downhill whilst people are suffering they are uping their rent and refuse to do anything

There has been a page opened on facebook with many people complaining with the state of their homes how their children have to live and we have to do our best any cosmetic damage we have to pay out for on top of our rent and certain other damage but the council and shelter are convinced it the landlord responsabilities those on benefits struggle more having to do their own house repairs it is becoming a joke how all these people have to live like this
