Rents for council tenants in Falkirk will rise in April, but councillors are being warned that a small increase may not be enough to cover costs.
While it is unlikely for rents to rise more than two per cent this year, councillors are being told that a four per cent increase for the next four years will be needed to keep up with costs.
Falkirk Council meets on Thursday to discuss future plans for housing across the district including spending £40 million on housing repairs and improvements, including re-roofing and rough casting as well as long-awaited new heating systems for tenants in off-gas areas.
