Members considered a report of
the Executive Director of Neighbourhood Services outlining a
forward agenda for the Housing Policy Committee for the 2024/25
year, setting out the key steps this Committee needs to take to
build on the progress made last year and to deliver the Council
Plan. This includes the need to prioritise resources on Council
Plan outcomes and become a community and customer focused
organisation to deliver high quality services for the people of
Sheffield and address the financial pressure facing the
Council.

Alternatives Considered and Rejected

8.4.1

Not to set out a forward agenda
for 2024/25 – this was rejected because having agreed a new
Council Plan, we need to set out for citizens the things we want to
achieve in 2024/25.
