Framework GM Empty Homes TA Leasing Programme

Key Details

Description

The Framework (via Light Touch Regime) will be for an initial term of 4 years or when the contract value reaches £3.5m, whichever occurs first (the "Contract Period"). There is no guarantee of spend through this framework. The Delivery Partner(s) will lease or acquire 2-4 bedroom homes to house families who the Council owe a duty to provide temporary accommodation to, under s.188, s.190 or s.193. The main objective is to provide safe and secure accommodation, whilst reducing the cost of Temporary Accommodation to the Council by incentivising owners of properties which have been empty for 6 months' or more to bring them back into use. The project is not aimed at households with ongoing housing related support needs, however the Council's Temporary Accommodation & Move On team for Homeless Families will provide support when needs are highlighted.
