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

The Sub Committee considered a report of the Director of Community & Children’s Services regarding the refurbishment required on the City of London Almshouses in Brixton. Members discussed the report, and agreed that the two-year timescale was preferable to ensure the least amount of disruption for residents.

RESOLVED – That:

a)    a two-year refurbishment programme for the City of London Almshouses be approved in principle, at an estimated cost of £898,000; and

b)    the Assistant Director, Barbican & Property be requested to commence the procurement and Gateway processes with a view to appointing a single contractor to deliver the programme.
