This report sets out the maintenance work programme for Council homes for the current financial year, including a continuing key focus on low carbon initiatives.

Minutes:

The Committee received a report which set out the maintenance work programme for Council homes for the current financial year. The Council’s programme continued to have a key focus on low carbon initiatives. The planned work programme for council homes had been impacted by market conditions in securing capacity to complete works. Financial assumptions had been updated as a result, as outlined in Appendix 1, which provided details of the updated programmes of work and associated budgets for the Council’s HRA Housing Stock 2024/2025. Appendix 2 to the report provided details of the works to the General Fund Housing Stock 2024/2025 and Appendix 3 gave a breakdown of the programmes of work by ward.

Resolved:

(1)        That the planned maintenance work programme for Council homes for 2024/25 be noted;

(2)        That the Assistant Director of Housing Landlord Services in consultation with the Lead Councillor for Housing be authorised to: (a) tender; and (b) enter into all necessary contracts for individual schemes that begin within the 2024/25 work programme as set out in Appendices 1 and 2 of the report subject to sufficient funding being available in the approved Budget to meet the cost of the schemes.
