Property and asset management

The property and asset management team manage and maintain the council's property portfolio, which comprises a range of properties used for operational purposes or held for commercial or investment reasons. 

We do not deal with council housing lets. 

Other functions include:

• management of non-residential property, including the enforcement of covenants, lease renewals, rent reviews, enquiries and advice
• advice on property values, rights and obligations to other divisions of the council
• strategic management and planning of the council's property assets to assist in meeting the objectives of the corporate business plan
• provision of planned and responsive maintenance as well as routine servicing of all council properties
• letting and management of property contracts for maintenance
• energy management and monitoring of energy use in all council buildings
