Decision details
Strategic review of sheltered housing stock and the provision of extra care units in Hammersmith and Fulham - Phase 1 closure report
Decision Maker: Cabinet
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
The vision is to ensure that LBHF HRA stock is
managed efficiently and profiled to meet changing aspirations and
need in the Borough.
A key driver is to provide sustainable, fit for purpose
accommodation that meets the corporate objective of delivering high
quality, value for money services.
Whilst the outcome of the review of the Sheltered Housing Stock
cannot be predetermined, a primary objective is to deliver an
additional 105 units of Extra Care accommodation within our
existing Sheltered housing stock to support the operational
requirements of Adult Social Care. Current stock will be assessed
for potential conversion as part of the Review.
Decision:
1. That the content of the CBRE Executive Summary Report and its conclusion that conversion of existing stock to the specified level of Extra Care is not a practical possibility, be noted.
2. That recommendations 1-14 set out in this report and that their implementation be agreed.
