Cabinet's decision on the preferred way of
delivering the Council Housing planned maintenance programme from
2015 is required
(Cabinet Member with Special Responsibility Councillor Smith)
Cabinet received a report from the Chief Officer (Environment) to seek Cabinet’s direction on their preference for future delivery of the planned maintenance programme. The report was exempt from publication by virtue of paragraph 3, of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972
The options, options analysis, including risk assessment and officer preferred option, were set out in the exempt report:
Councillor Smith proposed, seconded by Councillor Leytham:-
“That the recommendations, as set out in the exempt report, be approved.”
Resolved unanimously:
(1) That officers focus on developing a business case for option 3, as set out in the exempt report, and report back in detail as soon as that has been done.
(2) That officers be authorised to negotiate an appropriate extension of the current partnership agreement, as set out in the exempt report.
Officers responsible for effecting the decision:
Chief Officer (Environment)
Reasons for making the decision:
The decision is consistent with the Council’s ethos of an ensuring Council. As a housing provider the Council has a duty to ensure that its housing stock is properly maintained. The decision enables an evaluation of existing arrangements and other business models to deliver the capital programme from April 2015 and will ensure that value for money is considered and demonstrated.
