Aire Valley Homes Leeds is one of three new Arms Length Management Organisations (ALMOs) that were set up in April 2007 to manage council housing in Leeds.
An ALMO is a not-for-profit company set up by the Council to manage and improve the housing stock.
Although an ALMO is a company wholly owned by the local authority, it is an autonomous self-governing organisation. Each ALMO has a board of directors, which includes tenants, local authority nominees and independent members.
The organisation operates under the terms of a management agreement between the council and the ALMO.
