Minute No. CA.25

Cabinet, 27 September 2022

Funding Update

RESOLVED that

a)    subject to Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) approval, the amendment of the Capital Programme values for the two Future High Streets Fund schemes as outlined in the Cabinet report, be approved;

b)    subject to DLUHC’s approval of the Investment Plan, the UKSPF funding of £3.192m, noting the indicative revenue/capital split, be accepted and approval be given for the Corporate Finance Manager, with DLUHC approval, to vary the revenue/capital split for the purpose of updating the Capital Programme;

c)    with regard to Safer Streets 4 Funding; to approve the addition of £81k to the Capital Programme and to allow for the Corporate Finance Manager and the Executive Lead Member for Community Safety and Crime Reduction to have the potential to increase the Safer Streets Capital Scheme funding. This is to enable funding to be switched from the revenue allocation to deliver further capital elements should the need arise.  This would only be actioned following agreement with the funding provider for the use of the funding. This would reduce the amount added to the revenue budget in 2022/23;

d)    on DLUHC approval of all future Towns Fund business cases, delegated authority be granted to the Executive Lead Member for Finance, Revenues and Benefits and the Corporate Finance Manager to immediately add the schemes and their associated funding to the Capital Programme to avoid project delays, noting that full due diligence will be undertaken prior to progression through the various RIBA stages of each of the projects.
