The
Housing Management Board consists of eight councillors and six tenant and
leaseholder representatives.
The councillors and
the representatives scrutinise the decisions of the Executive Councillor for
Housing.
There
are five tenants and one leaseholder on the Housing Management Board. They are
elected every four years through a citywide ballot of all Cambridge City
Council tenants and leaseholders. For independence, the ballot is run by an
external organisation, Electoral Reform Services.
The
number of tenant and leaseholder places on the Board represents the proportion
of tenants and leaseholders living in Cambridge City Council properties.
Elected
residents on the Board can receive an allowance of either £200, £400 or £800
per year, to cover their expenses and compensate for their time.
