Phase 2
Selective Licensing phase 2 is now in force and covers prescribed areas of Carlton Hill, Colwick, Daybrook and Newstead Village. The designation requires that all privately rented dwellings within the four prescribed areas are licensed, subject to certain specified exemptions and requirements. The Designation came into force on 1 November 2022 and runs until 31 October 2027.
The above mentioned four areas are in addition to the existing scheme which continues to cover the Netherfield ward. Landlords and agents operating privately rented properties within the Netherfield ward or any of the four areas designated within Carlton Hill, Colwick, Daybrook and Newstead Village should apply for a licence to avoid enforcement action for failure to licence a property.
Selective Licensing phase 2 – Gedling Borough Council
Phase 1a – UPDATE
Following the council’s Cabinet Meeting held on 5th of September 2024, the decision has been taken to designate the Netherfield ward as a Selective Licensing area.
The scheme will be referred to as ‘Phase 1a’ as the designation covers the exact same geographical area as the original Phase 1 scheme which ran between 2018 and 2023.
The new Phase 1a designation came into force on the 5th January 2025 and will run until 4th January 2030. Whilst the designation is in force all privately rented properties within the Netherfield ward are required to be licensed, subject to certain specified exemptions and requirements.
The council began accepting applications for dwellings that fall within the Phase 1a area from 1st November 2024.
