  Housing Revenue Account (HRA) budget and rent review 2024/25

  

  Report of the Cabinet Member Better Homes

   

  This report sets out how the Council intends to continue to invest in its housing stock and services despite the increasingly challenging financial climate that the Housing Revenue Account (HRA) is operating in. It sets out a balanced budget and proposed levels of rent and service charges for 2024/25, which includes savings as part of the Medium-Term Financial Strategy (MTFS) approved at Cabinet in January 2023.

   

  The report is coming to the Cabinet because the Council is required to set a balanced HRA budget for each year and set levels of rent and charges for the HRA.
