REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR – REGULATORY

 

Demand for the Council’s housing services remains high with the need to secure additional services for those threatened with, or experiencing homelessness.

Decision:

RESOLVED: That Cabinet approved the funding proposals for the allocation of the remainder of the 2025/26 award of homelessness grants as outlined in Table 3 in paragraph 8.2.

 

REASON FOR DECISION: There is a need to secure additional services for homeless households in the district. Adopting the recommendation at 2.1 secures the provision of high-quality local services to help those in need, which is also consistent with the priorities set out in the Council’s Housing Strategy (2024 – 2029).
