Initial building work revealed significant problems with the building that had not been identified in the original surveys which caused delays. Since then, Covid-19 has meant the project is no longer viable as the planned service relied on shared sleep space to be financially viable and Covid-19 has rendered all projects with shared sleep space as unsafe. |

B&H Estates Conservation Trust Loan |
A loan was requested by the Trust in response to the council’s request for them to surrender part of their demise to enable houses to be built. Their lease only had a matter of years remaining and the impact of the pandemic means that the lease will have expired before works could commence. The surrender of the lease is therefore neither viable for the council and neither does it provide a sufficient term for the Trust to repay the loan |

LDV - On-Going Costs |
This capital scheme relates to capital works on Brighton & Hove Community Seaside Homes’ 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.
