Vistry and re-tender the project following a section 73 application
for 32 affordable homes in line with the existing planning
consent.
•Services include detailed design, principal designer and main
contractor services.

Alternative options considered

Alternative options were explored including
continuing with Vistry, selling the site or pausing the project.
These options did not offer value for money to the HRA and would
not deliver the much-needed affordable homes required. These
options were therefore rejected.
