Malting and Brewster House Structural Strengthening Works
PDF 224 KB
Cabinet in June 2019 considered a report on structural
reinforcement works at Brewster and Malting House. That report set
out the details and deliverability of the works and the impact to
residents. The report also explained the likely cost to
leaseholders. Cabinet resolved to defer some matters to allow for
further discussion with residents.
The discussion with residents has happened and further structural
reports have been received. This report provides a final update on
the structural works, seeks Cabinet approval of the decisions
deferred in June 2019, and seeks approval for the voluntarily
buy-back of leasehold properties at Brewster and Malting
House.
