We have identified a number of important Local Contacts that may assist you in managing your property.  Rather than providing specific staff names and telephone numbers—which change over time, we have provided space for you to write in many of the Local Contacts for your area.  If you are unsure where to obtain these local contact details, try your Local Council, local Community Support Officer, neighbour, or the Yellow Pages.
