The Committee considered the report of the Cobtree Officer setting out details of the property performance indicators for the Cobtree Estate for 2012.  It was noted that:-

·  A property condition survey was carried out every 5 years.  A programme of works was then set for the following 15 years.  The data set out in the Appendix to the report of the Cobtree Officerwas not available at the time of the Asset Management Report for 2012 as it was still being collated.

·  The most important data for monitoring purposes was the condition category.  This showed that there had been an improvement in the condition of the properties between the previous survey in 2008/09 and the survey in 2011/12.  The percentage of floor area in good condition had also risen since 2008/09.

·  The cost of the maintenance required showed a small increase approximately in line with inflation.  Total spend on maintenance between 2008/09 and 2011/12 (disregarding the capital works to Garden Cottage) was very similar.

·  The split normally expected between planned and responsive maintenance was 70% planned maintenance and 30% responsive maintenance.  The planned and responsive maintenance split had improved greatly since 2008/09 with the figures of 82% planned and 18% responsive being well above normal.

RESOLVED:  That the property performance indicators for the Cobtree Estate for 2012, as set out in the Appendix to the report of the Cobtree Officer, be noted.
