The Cabinet considered a report on the proposal to commission a Housing Market Assessment for Longbridge and the surrounding area on a joint basis with Birmingham City Council.

RESOLVED:

(a)       that officers be authorised to work with officers from Birmingham City Council to commission a joint Housing Market Assessment  for Longbridge and the surrounding area;

(b)       that the report be noted; and

(c)        that the report on the completed Housing Market Assessment be received in due course.
