RESOLVED

 

KEY DECISION

 

That the Executive adopted the
Fire Safety Policy as set out at Appendix A
to this report.

 

 

Reason for Recommendations –
To accord with legislation requirements placed upon the Council as
a Landlord, by adopting the proposed Housing Fire Safety Policy,
Council officers will be able to align services with Government
legislation and deliver a consistent service across the
Council’s Housing stock.
 

Alternative Options Considered
– To revise and update the previous legacy Corby Borough
Council and Kettering Borough Council policies for this Landlord
function. However, this was not deemed suitable as it would have
meant continuing with a different approach to this statutory
compliance function across the two legacy Landlord Council areas,
rather than delivering a consistent North Northamptonshire Council
approach across the Housing stock.
