Ashford Conservatives are demanding that Spelthorne Council tackles the antisocial behaviour connected to Imtech House.

This former office block in Woodthorpe Road is being used as temporary housing for London Borough of Hounslow tenants. Local businesses have had to clear up human waste and used nappies; our council regularly removes excessive litter from outside; and residents have reported abuse from some tenants who seem to have little respect for the people around them.

Surrey Police and Surrey County Council attend incidents at Imtech House at a cost to Ashford taxpayers and with NO contribution from Hounslow.

We think it is time Spelthorne Borough Council (which is run by the Independents and backed up by Labour, Greens and Liberal Democrats) pull their fingers out and press Hounslow Council to end their contract with the landlord and allow local families to live here.
