Update on Green Homes Grants

10/06/2021 - Green Homes Grants Update

RESOLVED -

 

1)        That Cabinet noted progress made in delivering the successful Business Energy and Industrial Strategy Green Homes Grant Local Authority Delivery, 1a, 1b and 2 programmes.

 

(2)          That Cabinet noted the proposed Vision Derbyshire Collaboration Project, to deliver large scale Climate Change interventions across the County.

 

REASONS FOR DECISION - To enable further improvements to be made to non-traditional built housing, in order to reduce Carbon emissions.

 

OTHER OPTIONS CONSIDERED AND REJECTED - The option of doing nothing was considered but rejected as not in the interests of the Council or the District. Taking further action to reduce Carbon emissions, through the improvements to the existing housing stock made possible by the Greens Homes Grant, will both make a significant contribution to achieving the Climate Change objectives of the Council Plan 2019-23 and also benefit the residents of the homes which are improved.

 

Please note that this was not a Key Decision and so can be implemented with immediate effect by officers
