Issue - decisions

1.    That the Cabinet Member for Housing and Homelessness approves a Procurement Strategy for the procurement, as required, of suitable contracts to undertake ad hoc complex void works and complex repairs to housing properties. Each contract will be procured and awarded subject to budget availability with contracts having a maximum aggregated value of £2.5m.

2.    To note that there are currently 24 properties requiring complex void works and complex repairs which will vary in scope but the aim will be to make them all available for letting by the end of the 2022/23 financial year. This will contribute to the target of reducing the proportion of void properties to no more than 1% of the stock.

3.    To note further updates on progress will be provided to the Cabinet Member for Housing and Homelessness.
