Havering Council will invest approximately £400 million in housing and civic building repairs over the next thirty years, focusing on essential maintenance to improve tenant living conditions.
The most extensive project involves £350 million in repairs to flats over a 16-year timeline, addressing the concurrent end of life for many housing elements.
While there is a budget deficit of £32.5 million, councillors stress the importance of these repairs for legal compliance and future financial savings despite opposition concerns.
Investment in roof replacements costs around £4 million and is seen as a vital step to enhance tenants' quality of life and secure living conditions.
