List of council housing addresses
Dear Plymouth City Council,
Please supply a list (spreadsheet or similar is fine) of all council housing under your remit.
Please also supply a list of ex-council housing (ie properties bought out under right-to-buy etc).
I request this on the basis that another council Welyn Hatfield Borough Council has already completed similar FOI request. https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/l...
Yours faithfully,
Josef Smith

Dear Josef,
Thank you for your request for information dated 31 August 2018 and
received on 3 September 2018 concerning council housing addresses
This request is being handled under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
This letter is a full response to that application.
Your request was to be supplied with the following information:
Please supply a list (spreadsheet or similar is fine) of all council
housing under your remit.
Please also supply a list of ex-council housing (ie properties bought out
under right-to-buy etc).
Plymouth City Council does not own, manage or run any residential
properties. Prior to 2009 Plymouth City Council did own and manage social
housing stock however all stock – including sheltered housing units - was
transferred to Plymouth Community Homes (a new housing association
constituted for the purpose of this stock transfer) in October 2009.
Since that time, all available social housing in Plymouth has been owned
and let by independent Housing Associations. Housing Associations are
required to provide information about the number of housing units they
own/let to the Homes and Communities Agency and this is publically
available (and can be searched by Local Authority area/by individual
housing association) through the following link:
