A report was submitted to Cabinet seeking approval to recommence a loan programme  to enable the improvement and repair of homes funded from the Capital Programme.

The Cabinet were asked to consider three options within the report.  The Cabinet agreed to option three – To continue to make available grants but offer a reduced range of loans.

Resolved:              (i)       That officers be authorised to take all necessary

steps to develop and deliver an in-house home loans renewal programme.

(ii)       That the Executive Director for Regeneration and

Development, in conjunction with the Portfolio Holder for Planning and Housing be authorised to update the current Housing Renewal Assistance Policy to include the offer of loans.
