Action List Arising from the Previous Meeting Minutes: The Housing Manager provided an update on an action arising from the previous meeting to benchmark what the Council is paying for replacement bathroom and kitchens to what has been paid in the past and also to benchmark the costs for the clearance of void properties with the past. The written response is provided below:
An exercise was completed in which the Housing Teams procured and non-procured contractors were asked to provide a financial estimate to carry out work on a void property. The total value of the void works was approximately £7,000 with the procured contractor providing a quote to complete the works which was 1.23% (£86) more expensive than a non-procured contractor. As a result, there is no significant cost issues between the newly appointed void contractor and contractors previously used for void property work.
