LDV - On-Going Costs

This capital scheme relates to capital works on Brighton & Hove Community Seaside Homes’ (LDV)s properties, subsequent to development works and under the management of Temporary Accommodation. This scheme is funded by a management fee paid to the council from Seaside Homes and managed within the funding limits.
As reported against HRA capital, planned programmes for this year have been significantly impacted by COVID-19, in addition programmes were forecast to begin later in the year as a result of significant procurement activity on both planned works contract and major works contracts. Procurement processes for planned term contracts were paused in March 2020 as a result of the pandemic and restarted in June 2020. The procurement progressed well since restarting and completed in November 2020.
