Inspections and standards
All allotment plots are inspected regularly to make sure they are:
- being used correctly
- kept in good condition.
Tenant responsibilities
Tenants must follow:
- all conditions in the Tenancy Agreement
- any additional rules introduced by the Council when required
If a tenant does not follow these requirements, we may issue a malcultivation notice. Continued non-compliance may lead to the termination of the tenancy.
If you are unable to maintain your allotment plot for an extended period, you must contact the Allotments Officer as soon as possible. This helps avoid a malcultivation notice and the risk of losing your plot.
Slough allotment rules
