Scrutiny Considerations

The Committee received a report from the Area Housing Manager.

The Committee made the following comments in response to the report:

(i)      Acknowledged that the renewal of fencing for twelve blocks on Ekin Road could be considered under a separate fencing scheme, as this scheme had not been prioritised under the Cambridge Standard Fund.

(ii)      Queried the cost of £5,000 to install two extra padlocks to each garage door on Humphrey’s Road.

(iii)   Requested that the new drying area at Langdale should be hard standing only.

The Committee:

Resolved unanimously to endorse the recommendation.

The Executive Councillor approved the recommendation.
