Minutes:

RESOLVED:

 

That the purchase at Stacey Street, with the funding received from the Greater London Authority, be approved; and the procurement of a service provider to run a specialist supported accommodation service for people experiencing rough sleeping be agreed. 

 

Reasons for decision – to create a route away from the streets for those experiencing rough sleeping.

Other options considered – as specified in the report, other service options were considered for Stacey Street including provision for learning disability, older people’s residential and semi-independent homes for care leavers but the proposed use for Rough Sleepers is considered to be the best combination aligned to building suitability, service need and subsidy.

Conflicts of interest / dispensations granted – none
