Decision details

RESOLVED: That Cabinet

(1)  Agreed that the Council will stop providing the monthly property compliance tasks (as detailed in paragraph 8.1) to community groups/ buildings (as detailed in paragraph 8.3).

(2)  Agreed that the Council should continue to fund low value repairs in such a way so that community groups/ buildings do not lose out from changes to the way that the compliance contract is expected to operate from February 2023.

REASON FOR DECISIONS: The decision helps the Council keep under control the cost of providing property compliance contract. It also leads to reduced vehicle travel and associated environmental benefits. It also reflects that the Council will focus its support (and resources) on providing those property compliance services that require specialist knowledge and training.
