Social housing renovation Italy: which solutions in Dutch housing management model? Chapter 3 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Differences among the regions regard name, regulations and organizational structure. DIFFERENCES ALL Each region chose a different name that is Azienda Territoriale per l’Edilizia Residenziale OVER THE COUNTRY Pubblica in the case of the region of Lazio. The statue can be adopted independently or approved by the region, like in the case of Lazio. Some regions opted for a single director but the majority chose the board of directors with a diversified number of members. On the whole there are seven institutes in the Lazio region, with 49 board members in total. However, the greatest difference regards the legal form of the institutes which can be of three types: non economic public institute, economic public institute or a partnership. Half of the Italian institutions, including ATER Roma, joined the economic public institute category. It is defined by law as ‘institute whose objective is to run as a company with a public function satisfying an economic profile through the achievement of profits or at least of the quote to cover the expenses’. The tree legal types differ especially in regard to the asset management. Some institutes manage a stock owned by another public authority, performing as sort of operational body on behalf of a third part, whereas others are structured like companies acting as auxiliary of the region itself. Lazio region follows the latest model in which the economic and exploitation risks are with the region The economic public institutes define themselves the level of expansion into the private sector by providing further activities for private parties such as design, studio, management and other services in addition to the two principal activities that are management of the existing stock and new constructions. Some regional laws allow the institutes to go into partnership with other parties to carry out institutional assignments or entrepreneurial activities; this is the case of Toscana region which took the form of Joint-Stock Company. The institutes are now allowed to foresee specific features for new constructions such as the respect of historical architecture and the surrounding environment (constructive techniques and styles) or specific requirements of disadvantaged groups. Moreover, they can also manage a stock not included within the social sector and/or owned by other public bodies. Nevertheless, the most interesting change concerns the extension of the principal activities. On one hand, research and experimentation towards new construction technologies and sustainability, on the other hand, all the set of additional services that can improve the relationship with the users (Grassia, 2005). Before the end of the 90s, the social housing stock was built by public bodies that were the institutes or the municipalities. They were fully financed by the central government or by a combination of central and local government and other public bodies. Nowadays, the State does not provide extensively financial support to the housing institutions anymore. They have to balance their own budget themselves. Therefore they are allowed to make a profit on their activities, and the exploitation of projects has to be in equilibrium. Subject support to the resident is usually very limited. They are in the form of subsidy for people in economic needs which come from a national fund regularly filled through the financial tax bill. To the fund contribute the government, the region, the province and the municipality (Pozzo, 2005). The institutes are supervised by the regions but again there are some differences across the country, especially with regards to the activities to be checked and the control carried out. Further supervision is performed by the ordinary judge for what concerns entrepreneurial management and by the State Auditors' Department (Grassia, 2005). 3.1.1) ATER ROMA INTRODUCTION In the Lazio Region, where Roma is located, the housing institutes are the ATER, Azienda Territoriale per l'Edilizia Residenziale pubblica (Territorial Institute for Social Housing). There are seven agencies that, according to the demographical density of their jurisdictional territory, deal with single Municipalities (Rome and Civitavecchia) or entire provinces 4.

Social housing renovation Italy: which solutions in Dutch housing management model? Chapter 3 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- (Viterbo, Frosinone, Latina, Rieti and the remaining part of the territory under the name of the Province of Rome). By definition, ATER Roma is an economic public institute. It is a sort of tool in the hands of the region but is independent from the financial, entrepreneurial, estate and account point of view. Its mission is to face up to the housing emergency. The activities carried out are: supporting public authorities and landlords in designing and realizing housing projects (restructuring programs, housing renovation and interventions regarding social housing); managing the housing stock entrusted by others bodies; conducting research and experimentation on housing; and, if charged by public and private bodies, conducting specific studies, do design, realize various projects on urban and building scale, do maintenance and manage the stock. To describe the model of ATER Roma the following descriptive model is taken as a reference. As it is shown in the model itself, brief information is given with respect to five categories: management (model, asset management and relation with the public bodies), stock (tenure, size, typology, quality, age, allocation system and location) financial support (bodies that give the funds, objective and subjective subsidies), supervision system (levels of supervision and tools) and regulations (administrative organization and European regulation). Information have been collected by means of questionnaire to professionals in ATER (directors and technicians of ATER) and literature in terms of various regulations and reports. 5. C
