A London council is trying to sell 14 properties that he bought to house the survivors of the tragedy of the Grenfell Tower that can be rented in such a poor state.
Kensington and Chelsea Council said that somerships knowing that some risk buying the properties “in the necessary interest of speed”, shows a report of the Council.
The authority had to find homes for hundreds of residents displaced by the fire in the Grenfell Tower in June 2017, in which 72 people died and more than 70 were injured. In total, they bought a total of 290 properties.
Kin’s Grenfell survivors group said the admission was just an example of “epic failures after a disaster.”
A Board spokesman said to the local democracy reports: “Buying 290 homes in 2017 was an unprecedented challenge, and the council knows some risks to complete sales quickly.”
The authority said that some of the properties were not appropriate and that it would be difficult to lead to the high security standards necessary for social housing.
They added that Buychases would not have made the leg had a more detailed information leg available and had the “need for circumstances”.
“This included carrying out limited surveys and buying private properties that we might supposed could be adequate for social housing,” they said.
“It is inevitable that quality varies when buying so many properties at speed, as special as many had a leg in private property.”
The Council wants to sell 14 houses that they bought because they are in such a poor state that they cannot be taken to the standard, which has raised questions and a loss of money from taxpayers.
Emma O’Connor, who escaped in an elevator on the 20th floor with his partner, accused the advice of not learning from his mistakes.
She said: “They don’t investigate before doing something. Rush is the largest red flag. You can’t hurry fire safety.
“People’s life means more than money. If it takes a long time [to find a suitable property]so it is. It is a human right to live in a safe place. “
Kin’s Grenfell survivors group said the admission was “the tip of the iceberg.”
They Said: “The Decision Made By The Tory Government in the Immediate aftermath of the Fire To Leave The Same Nigent Tory Council in Charge of the Aftermat With a White Check, Without Any Oversight Or Scrutiny, Was A Seried Misstep, Harmful for The Harness, Harmful, Harmful Harmful, Harmful for the Harsh, Harmful, Harmful, Harmful, Harmful, Harmful, Harmful “Harmful” Harmful “do me. “” “” “” “
Kensington and the Chelsea Council said the residents were transferred once the problems with the properties they bought after the tragedy were raised.
Some of the properties were never occupied due to safety problems such as unusual designs or fire escape problems.
The Council said it would reinvest the procedures for sales of return to social housing in the municipality.
In February, the government said the Grenfell Tower of 24 floors would gradually disassemble.
A spokesman said that the process was expected to take about two years and that it would be “sensitive”, without changes in the building before the eighth anniversary of the disaster in June.
