Reason for this Petition

This petition of certain residents of the Australian Capital Territory draws to the attention of the Assembly that: The following residents of the ACT draw the attention of the Assembly to the fact that a property owned by Housing ACT At No 10 Barnet Close, Swinger Hill, has been abandoned and vandalized. Over the past seven years ambulance and police have had to attend this property on numerous occasions and most of its windows are now smashed and boarded up. Housing ACT has repeatedly failed to respond to the concerns of Barnet Close residents over safety and heritage values, despite the fact this part of Barnet Close has been protected under the Heritage Act since 2013.

Requested Actions

Your petitioners therefore request the Assembly to call on Housing ACT to either safeguard or sell the property at 10 Barnet Close, Swinger Hill.
