Lanark residents’ fury at housing body’s letter
The letter, sent to 60 homes in Stuart Drive, Kildare Drive and Stanmore Avenue, stated that the Association, which provides rented social housing thoughout the area, was now taking over as the legal factor for their homes.
The only trouble was that 49 of the 60 homes were not the Association’s but were owned privately by the families living in them!

Petition organiser Ronald Logan, of 17 Stuart Drive, told the Gazette of his fury at the “arrogance” of the Association letter.
