June 2015 Petition of Holland Estate Residents about Refurbishment or Demolition / Redevelopment Preferences
Residents signed the petition to request the East End Homes (EEH) Main Board to intervene and help to stop the demolition proposals for the estate. Specifically:
- EEH to Stop the demolition plans immediately as the overwhelming majority of residents and the Holland Estate Board oppose it.
- EEH to Refurbish our estate and carry out all the qualifying works as stated in the development agreement of the original transfer of Holand Estate to EEH from Tower Hamlets Counci on 13 November 2006.
- EEH to Manage and maintain our estate in a professional and transparent way going forward with no more excuses for letting the housing stock fall into disrepair.
The numbers of residents who supported demolition proposals, were undecided or declined to answer were also recorded.
