Consideration was given to a report which sought approval to award the contract to a development partner for the ‘Site Cluster Programme’ covering seven Housing Revenue Account sites and allow work to proceed.

It was reported that the proposal would enable the development of the following sites:

·         Braithwell Road and Gaitskell Close, Maltby

·         X2 sites on Rother View Road, Canklow

·         Conway Crescent and Farnworth Road, East Herringthorpe

·         Shakespeare Drive, Dinnington

It was noted that the next stage of the project would involve detailed negotiations regarding the terms of appointment via a development agreement and the commencement of site investigations and planning applications for the sites.
