It is also not feasible to issue additional properties to our first programme contractor, due to the required output of turnover for the refurbishments.   The works associated with this contract will ensure that the Council is maintaining its obligations to provide ‘Decent Homes’ which are properties that:   • Meet the current statutory minimum for housing, • Are in a reasonable state of repair, • Have reasonably modern facilities and services.   No alternative options to be considered. The current housing repairs and asset service has no capacity to deliver these works in-house
