Cuts
Huntingdonshire housing PE29
Sector: Housing
Huntingdonshire District Council is axeing its annual £500k budget for social housing grants, and is also cutting funding for housing repairs assistance from £190k to £100k per year. Cutting this latter budget will reduce the number of unoccupied dwellings that can be brought back into use.
In addition, the equivalent of around 30 full-time staff will be cut from the council’s housing services management units, leading to a slower response time for some enquiries and specialist advice.
