Minutes:

The report sought in-principle approval to prioritise these sites for the development Extra Care Housing and to take forward the necessary feasibility work allowing these sites, subject to final cabinet approval, to progress to construction and delivery stage as swiftly as possible.
There was support from members on the delivery of the extra care units and the opportunity that would be given for people to live independently in their local communities. The Cabinet Member and the team were congratulated on the progress of the project.
