Report of the Town Clerk

Having undertaken a thorough review of the levels of membership and constitutional make-up of the various Barbican Residents’ Associations, this report outlined those which had met the required qualification for Recognised Tenants’ Association (RTA) status.  Members noted that all House Groups, which had applied for RTA status, had been successful.  Members also noted that six groups had been operating an ‘opt-out’ membership, whereby all residents would be members unless they chose not to be.  Of these groups, the number of opt-outs had been very small.  House Groups were recommended to consider adopting this style of membership, which would need to be formally agreed at the House Group AGM.
