Derelict Housing Progress for Tuebrook, Newsham Park and Stoneycroft

Tuebrook Liberal Party Councillors today received an extremely welcome update from Brian Seddon of Riverside Housing

In his letter of 25th July, Mr Seddon confirms that a large portion of Riverside's long term vacant properties in the area have had offers for sale accepted, the Liberal Party have been fiercely lobbying City Council and Various Housing Association to either renovate or sell for renovation their long term vacants

Mr Seddon has confirmed the following offers for sale have been accepted for:

15 Newsham Drive
30 Windsor Road
32 Windsor Road
44 Windsor Road
89 Moscow Drive
33 Kremlin Drive

In 3 cases offers lower than the target price have been accepted as the buyers are intended owner occupiers, without doubt a welcome approach by Riverside to encourage owner occupation

This month extensive renovation work has started on a previous sale site 6/6a Russian Drive in Stoneycroft

All offers have a clear contractual target date for renovation work to be completed

On behalf of the Liberal Party and Tuebrook, Newsham Park and Stoneycroft residents we would wish to express thanks for the personal interest of Riverside Group MD, Mr John Wood, for giving this initiative his support.

These sales, alongside a series of sales by the City Council, will significantly assist the regeneration of Tuebrook, Newsham Park and Stoneycroft . It will rid our communities of long term derelicts blighting the area but even more importantly provide reasonably priced accommodation for families
