This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.
Reason for urgency:
On 13 October, the Council took a decision to re-evaluate the Extra Care. A decision will be made on 27 October, with bidders being advised of the outcome on 4 November, to allow sufficient time for the call-in period. It is now not possible to meet the 28 day notification requirement as sufficient time is required to mobilise new contracts and ensure the safety of residents.

This decision will be taken under urgency procedures.
Reason for urgency:
The urgent notice was required to ensure continuation of service is met in line with the contract end date.
In East Sussex, we want to support Homes for Ukraine sponsors to continue hosting their Ukrainians guests. Our aim is that hosts can continue to provide suitable accommodation until their guests are ready and able to move on independently, thereby reducing the risk of homelessness.
The Lead Member is asked to note that sustaining host/guest arrangements is a key part of managing the risk of homelessness to Ukrainians on the Homes for Ukraine scheme.
The increased costs of providing accommodation this Winter and the rising cost of living will cause additional financial pressure on hosts at a time when many are considering whether they can continue hosting.
The Lead Member is therefore asked to agree to a Winter top-up of £150 per month to the host thank you payment, paid from the Homes for Ukraine tariff grant, for a 6 month period.

An office search was concluded and at a meeting for Lead Member for Resources and Climate Change it was agreed in July 2022 to taking leases at Cavendish House and Muriel Matters House, Hastings. The leases are about to be completed but refurbished works will be needed. As the contract for the building refurbishment is over £500,000 a key decision is required. The capital investment will be paid for from the non-schools planned maintenance programme and there is the budget to pay for this.
