Having considered an open and a confidential officer report, and a
presentation by the Cabinet Member for Housing & Planning, Councillor Paul
Bell, the Mayor and Cabinet agreed that:
(1) the serving of Notices of Seeking Possession and taking possession
proceedings, where necessary, in respect of tenants in 2 -30A Reginald Road
be approved, noting the previous approval;
(2) the serving of Initial Demolition Notices on all remaining secure tenants
within 2 – 30A Reginald Road be approved in order to suspend the
requirement for the Council to complete right to buy applications for as long as
the Notices remain in force – noting the previous approval;
(3) the serving of Final Demolition Notices on all remaining secure tenants
within 2 – 30A Reginald Road be approved once the proposed demolition
date is known, in order to render all existing right to buy applications
ineffective and prevent any further right to buy applications being made–
noting the previous approval;
(4) the required increase in the budget required to achieve vacant possession
of 2-30A Reginald Road as set out in the Part 2 report;
(5) the remaining drawdown of the previously agreed Right to Buy contribution
