A Leeds initiative to improve housing standards and target empty properties that has already proved successful in other areas of the city is moving in to Holbeck.
Councillor Peter Gruen, executive member for neighbourhoods, planning and personnel, said:
By working closely with our partners, owners, landlords and tenants we can improve the condition of homes and bring empty properties back into use which has the knock on effect of helping to build safer and stronger communities.
