Council housing-nuisance
Every tenant with Waveney District Council has a tenancy agreement, which prohibits any behaviour which causes a nuisance to another person. The Council can not always take action, this will depend on various factors, but where action is appropriate the Council does take very strong action.

Evictions
Every tenant has an obligation under the terms of their tenancy agreement to make sure their weekly rent is paid. The Council will always be happy to come to an agreement for a tenant to pay any rent arrears by instalments. However the Council reserves the right to take legal action where arrears are not paid, and this can end in eviction.
