Purpose

As significant
investment work is needed to bring six high rise housing blocks up
to an appropriate standard, including intrusive and costly
strengthening works, an options appraisal has been undertaken and a
decision is needed on the future of the blocks.
These are Brooklands
Towers, Bailey Towers and Ramshead Heights in Seacroft, Leafield
Towers in Moortown, and Raynville Court and Raynville Grange in
Armley, with a total of 360 homes.
The recommended approach includes for all
residents to be rehoused, with appropriate support for those who
need it.  This would be needed whether
blocks are being refurbished or are to be demolished to clear the
sites to enable later redevelopment.
