"Labour councillors are hoping to resurrect plans to create a 'fairer' system for leaseholders forced to pay £10,000 in repair bills months before their homes are bulldozed.
"People living on the West Hendon Estate have been asked to pay the money up to six years before they are due to leave their homes, even though the works would have a 25 year life span.
"... Cllr Richard Cornelius, leader of Barnet Council, said:
"I can understand that leaseholders have been concerned about what the future holds for them.
But the publication of details of [a] shared equity offer and the revised offers to buy their homes should reassure them that they will have the opportunity to move into a great new home in a transformed West Hendon.
Leaseholders will benefit in the long run from the new homes being built to a much higher standard than the current estate, along with all of the new facilities that regeneration will bring."
