Report of the Director of Community and Children’s Services.

Members received an update report of the Director of Community & Children’s Services on the City of London Almshouses. The Head of Housing Management reported that the planning application to the London Borough of Lambeth to convert the Deputy Matron’s flat to an office and community meeting place had been approved, and builders were in place to begin the work within the next few weeks. With regard to the damp problems at the Roger’s Cottages, a pilot property had been identified and the resident had vacated her home for the duration of the repairs (approximately 2 weeks). Members discussed the need to review the contents of the hamper, noting its value of approximately £50.

RESOLVED – That the report be noted.
