Ginnel Guide
This is a guide to Aire Valley Homes Leeds
ginnel clearing policy.
The term ginnel is used to
describe a passageway between
two buildings.
< Here is an example of what a
ginnel may look like.
Aire Valley Homes Leeds will carry out two annual inspections of ginnels
in April and October. Inspections will be flexible to reflect the growing
season with ginnels being weed sprayed during these visits.
During each visit, a full inspection and surface check of the ginnel will
be undertaken. On inspection we will weed spray, remove fly tipping and
cut back the vegetation to ensure safe passage.
Reporting issues or concerns
Our Tenancy Management Officers carry out monthly estate walkabouts
to identify any additional visits that may be needed throughout the
growing season and summer months. A timetable of our monthly
walkabouts can be found by visiting www.avhleeds.org.uk.
If you would like to report concerns or issues, please contact the
environmental services teams direct by calling 0800 915 6660 or
emailing avhleeds.enquiries@avhleeds.org.uk.
