Flexible Tenancies and the Tenancy Strategy Update- Post consultation

From: Housing Policy Committee - Thursday 29 January 2026 2.00 pm - January 29, 2026

We are proposing to use an alternative type of secure tenancy for properties provided under two schemes: 1. South Sheffield Supported Housing Scheme (currently let on licence) and 2. Local Authority Housing Fund (currently let on a non[1]secure tenancy). It is proposed that flexible tenancies will be offered for a 2-year fixed term, with the option of offering a further tenancy afterwards. In accordance with our current approach tenants would initially be placed on an introductory tenancy and, upon successful completion, would be offered a flexible tenancy.
