Decision details

The Director of Neighbourhoods and Housing submitted a report on funding recently secured by Leeds City Council and its partners from a Single Regeneration Housing Pot and Housing Market Renewal Investment Fund to enable issues of low demand and poor quality housing in a number of inner city neighbourhoods to be addressed.  The report described conditions attached to the two funding streams, how the money had been allocated to individual projects that comprise the overall programme, and what needed to be done to ensure that the projects were delivered to programme.

RESOLVED –

(a)  That the Director of Neighbourhoods and Housing be authorised to make changes to individual schemes which have been approved by this Board.

(b)  That the Director of Neighbourhoods and Housing and Director of Development be authorised to make and promote any necessary Compulsory Purchase Orders which may be required in the event that agreement cannot be reached with any property owner within the target area(s) of any approved scheme.
