3 National & Regional Statistics Empty Homes > 6 months Isle of Anglesey 716 Blaenau Gwent 900 Bridgend 1,820 Caerphilly Cardiff 2,289 Carmarthenshire 1,954 Ceredigion 597 Conwy 1,050 Denbighshire 893 Flintshire 868 Gwynedd 1,308 Empty Homes > 6 months Merthyr Tydfil 817 Monmouthshire 1,482 NeathPort Talbot 1,248 Newport 2,078 Pembrokeshire 1,000 Powys 60 (1,217) Rhondda Cynon Taf 3,000 Swansea 1,881 Torfaen 295 Vale of Glamorgan 817 Wrexham 260 Wales 26,407 (2.1% 2.5%) * Council Tax Returns & Shelter Cymru July 2009
4 Background Why deal with empty homes: Blight communities, attract vandals dl and squatters (broken window syndrome) Regeneration Reduce pressure to build ongreenfield sites Re using existing buildings more cost effective than new build Help alleviatehomelessness (4.5millionhousing waitinglists England & 90,000 in Wales Cost to owner of keeping property empty 8k a year Detrimental affect on the neighbourhood Tie up LA resources and the emergency services Often the cost of returning property back into use is less than 6K
5 When Negotiations Fail Enforcement Options There is no cure all pill, must look at a range of solutions and use the most appropriate ate Councils have a range of powers at their disposal to secure the improvement of properties To deal effectively with the problem takes a corporate approach and using the most appropriate p legislation to deal with the problem. Planning is a key partner in dealing with empty homes Cannot secure the occupation of the property, but can make the owner take responsibility for their property
6 Main Legislation Used for Empty Properties Town & Country Planning Act 1990 Building Act 1984 Housing Act 1985 & 2004 Environmental Protection o Act 1990 Prevention of Damage by Pests Act 1949 Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1982

22 Empty Dwelling Management Orders Creates right of possession not ownership Vacant for minimum 6 months (Exemptions) Proposal extend to 2 years Application to the Residential Property Tribunal Interim EDMOs secure occupation with consent of proprietor (12 months) Final EDMOs secure occupation, no consent necessary (7 years) renewable Properties need to be in reasonable condition recover monies

24 Empty Dwelling Management Order
25 Enforced Sales Procedure (ESP) Enforced Sales, not a procedure to deal with problem properties per se Procedure to deal with recovery of outstanding debt following actions that have created a land charge against a property Can be used in relation to registered & unregistered land ( 100K max) Generally, takes priority over other mortgages and private debts Can be used for recovering debts, where the LA has completed works in default (caveats) & Council Tax debt
26 Twin Track Approach (Enforced Sales) There are two tracks to the enforced sales procedure. Legislation that t enables the recovery of dbtth debt through h the use of the Law & Property Act 1925 via the District Land Registry. Other debts such as Council Tax debts that are recovered through the County Court (Charging Order or Bankruptcy) It very much depends on which legislation the LA uses as to which track is the most appropriate. It is far more beneficial to use the Law & Property Act 1925 approach rather than go through the County Court procedure. The reason for this includes: It is more streamlined (sell property within 5 6 months of demand being served) The LA charge takes priority over any mortgage, ensuring recovery of funds Canbe used againstunregistered land (up to 100K) and registered land. Can be used on owners that cannot be found or the land is unregistered or the owner is deceased. These issues would cause considerable difficulty through the County Court approach.
27 Status of the Range of Legislation Principal Statutory powers confer charge on all estates and confer L&PA 1925 Housing Act 1985 & 2004 Building Act 1984 Does not bind all estates and interests - Section 7 Local Land Charges Act 1975 applies Section 215 Town & Country Planning Act 1990 Section 29 Local Government (MP) Act 1982 not suitable Prevention of Damage by Pests Act 1949 Environmental Protection Act 1990 More complex issue over service
28 Council Tax / Section 215 T&CP Act 1990 Enforced Sales Procedure (County Court) This method can be used for Council Tax debts & other debts Council Tax debt (only) obtain liability order (Magistrates Court) Obtain Interim Charging Order from County Court Obtain Final Charging gorder from County Court Advertise intentions in local and national press Instigate Order of Sale and sell in accordance with standard procedure Recover debt rest of money paid into Court
