Change of tenure of 29 Cottes Way, Hill Head and disposal of 5 Gordon Road, Fareham including the freehold
From: Executive - Monday, 4th November, 2024 6.00 pm - November 04, 2024
To obtain Executive approval for the change of tenure of 29 Cottes Way, Hill Head to shared ownership, and the disposal of 5 Gordon Road, Fareham, including the building freehold. The Affordable Housing Strategy (2019) aims to provide the right affordable homes in the right places for those who heed them. Following a review of the suitability of two void properties, the report asks for Executive approval to change the tenure of 29 Cottes Way to shared ownership, and to dispose of 5 Gordon Road, including the building freehold. The report also seeks approval for the costs, detailed in the accompanying appendix to the report, to undertake improvement works to 29 Cottes Way before converting to shared ownership. Capital receipts arising from the sales will be retained within the Housing Revenue Account and be spent on affordable housing, regeneration or the paying off of HRA debt.
Recommendations Approved
Food Waste Collection Service
From: Executive - Monday, 4th November, 2024 6.00 pm - November 04, 2024
To consider the introduction of a food waste collection service across the Borough in March 2026. It is anticipated that the introduction of weekly food waste collections will be mandatory for English Waste Collection Authorities from 31 March 2026. Preparations are already underway to meet this requirement in Fareham. A moderate financial and delivery risk has been identified if supply chain issues delay the availability of new food waste vehicles and kerbside caddies. Given that capital grant funding has already been received, and secure storage is available, it is recommended that the five food waste vehicles and 47,500 kerbside cassies required are purchased as soon as possible, in advance of the finalised Environment Act Regulations and Statutory Guidance being in place.
Recommendations Approved
Communications and Engagement Strategy
From: Executive - Monday, 4th November, 2024 6.00 pm - November 04, 2024
To seek approval to consult on the Draft Communications and Engagement Strategy, which sets out proposals for how the Council will communicate and engage with our diverse audiences. The creation and implementation of a new Communications and Engagement Strategy is a key project to be delivered under Priority Six of the Corporate Strategy 2023 – 2029 which aims to ensure we are ‘a responsive, inclusive and innovative Council’. The Communications and Engagement landscape has changed during recent years, with many more people consuming news and engaging online. However, a core group of people prefer to engage using more traditional methods. To ensure we continue to meet the needs of our diverse audiences a draft Communications and Engagement Strategy has been developed. This is based around a series of proposed aims, supporting priorities and projects with which to guide better communications and engagement with both external and internal customers of the Council. Approval is sought to consult on the draft strategy.
Recommendations Approved
Melvin Jones House
From: Executive - Monday, 4th November, 2024 6.00 pm - November 04, 2024
To obtain approval to include Melvin Jones House and St Marys Road Flats as a new and additional appendix (Appendix A to the report) to the Fareham Housing Regeneration Strategy. To approve in principle the redevelopment of the Melvin Jones House and St Marys Road Flats site, having regard to the options and estimated costs cited in Appendix B to the report. The Regeneration Strategy was adopted at the March 2021 Executive meeting and details the factors that will be considered when identifying and progressing housing regeneration opportunities. Appendix C (Appendix A to the report) is the third of the individual site-specific appendices produced for Executive approval. Melvin Jones House and St Marys Road Flats is a Fareham Borough Council owned sheltered housing scheme constructed in 1972. Due to its age, many of the major structural elements of the building are nearing the end of their life, resulting in increased and more lengthily maintenance. Internally, the accommodation consists of small, poorly designed units which fall short of modern standards of living. Regeneration options have been explored, and the recommendation is to replace the existing buildings and garages with new, energy efficient, affordable homes.
Recommendations Approved
