Purpose:
To agree contract terms for disposal of The Lodge to provide accommodation for people with learning disabilities.
Decision:
1 Decision by the Executive Member for Transformation and Finance:
That the disposal of the Lodge to Places for People based on their submission but subject to satisfactory planning permission be approved.
2 Decision by the Executive Member Adult Social Care Health and Housing:
That a nominations agreement with Places for People be entered into subject to provision of accommodation for people with learning disabilities on the Lodge site.
Reasons for the decision:
The Executive at its meeting on the 9 May 2017 agreed to go to tender to seek proposals from Registered Providers to develop the Council owned site the Lodge to provide accommodation for people with learning disabilities. The development of accommodation will generate significant revenue savings in support costs for people with learning disabilities.
Alternative options considered:
Not to accept the proposals to develop the Lodge site to provide accommodation for people with learning disabilities. However, that would mean the loss of specialist accommodation for people with learning disabilities developed on a cost effective basis.

Making Representations: In writing to the Director of Adult Social Care, Health and Housing.
