Birmingham City Council has announced a £62 million capital investment to increase the sustainable supply of affordable homes to prevent people from presenting as homeless.
Seeking to prevent people from presenting as homeless and to take people out of the least suitable accommodation in the city, the council has also agreed a £1 million investment fund to refurbish an existing property to enable its use as an alternative to bed and breakfast and £2.5 million to set up a dedicated transformation team to increase the supply of homes and to achieve a substantial and rapid enhancement to its housing service.
Sharon Thompson, cabinet member for Homes and Neighbourhoods, said: “This is a big investment on behalf of the council in creating more new affordable homes, refurbishing existing ones, improving the housing service and tackling rough sleeping. Combined they show the level of commitment that Birmingham City Council is making in our housing stock across the city and our desire to tackle the housing waiting list, improve our existing homes and eradicate rough sleeping from our streets. This is part of our desire to see a city wide transformation in our housing future and shows the council is more than playing its part in tackling the national housing crisis.”
