for the wider RSI Outreach Team
RESOLVED - That: Approve the establishment and
recruitment of a Rough Sleeping Initiative Project Officer
Option 1 - Approve the establishment and
recruitment of a Rough Sleeping Initiative Project Officer
(recommended): A central coordination resource will ensure a faster
response to reports of rough sleeping, more accurate data recording
and reduced workloads for the wider teams
Option 2 - Do not establish and recruit a Project Officer (not
recommended): MHCLG have provided grant funding for this option; to
not pursue this would mean either returning or proposing to
re-purpose the funding. Not having a central coordination resource
would impact on the workload of both the RSI team and the statutory
homelessness service.

Officer (not recommended): MHCLG have provided grant funding for
this option; to not pursue this would mean either returning or
