Agenda item

To receive and consider the report of the Projects Officer concerning the progress of projects.

The Committee received and considered the report of the Project Officer.

The Head of Estates & Operation answered Members’ questions regarding welfare provisions, insulation and cycle storage provision.

The report had outlined the building of the new works depot would be over one storey, rather than two storeys and would provide a saving of approximately £10,000 - £20,000 however, Members agreed that the additional storey would provide additional storage space and future proof the Council given the proposed changes to local government responsibilities with  anticipated devolution.

Members were unanimously in agreement with proceeding with the option of building the new work depot with two storeys.

Recommended:

1.      That, the report be noted and,

2.      That, Officers proceed with plans for construction of a new two storey works depot.
