To note the current capital spend for the quarter April to June 2021.

Terry Collier presented the Capital Monitoring report for the Environment and Sustainability Committee covering the period April to June 2021. 

Terry drew the Committee’s attention to an error in the report recommendation which should have stated the Committee were asked to note the projected overspend on capital expenditure of £83k.  This related to additional costs to meet Environment Agency flood standards at Laleham Park relating to the pavilion. 

The Development Sub-Committee, who were responsible for asset management, had recently agreed to the demolition of the pavilion at Laleham Park to make it safe, whilst the Environment and Sustainability Committee were responsible for parks and so there was some crossover of project responsibility whilst the new Committee system bedded in.

The Committee resolved to note the current level of projected overspend against its capital programme provision as at 30 June 2021.
