Approve expenditure and procurement for the delivery of the project
The Committee received a report from the Community, Sport & Recreation Manager.
The report
outlined the council had devolved to area committees decision-making powers
over the use of devolved S106 developer contributions, which include those for outdoor
sports provision.
The South Area
Committee allocated £100,000 of its devolved outdoor sports S106 contributions
for improvements to Cherry Hinton Recreation Ground Pavilion in January 2014. A
further £200,000 of devolved S106 outdoor sports contributions were allocated
to the second phase of this project in December 2016. In both cases, the
allocations were subject to approval of the project appraisal/business case.
The overall value of the project is therefore £300,000. These amounts already
feature of the ‘projects under development’ list of the council’s Capital
Programme.
Following discussion, Members unanimously resolved to:
i.
Approve the Cherry Hinton Recreation Ground
project (involving a single storey side and front extension with internal alterations
to existing Pavilion), as detailed in the attached appendices, which has been
properly planned and is ready for implementation.
ii.
Delegate to the Chief Executive to invite and
evaluate tenders for the contract for the Cherry Hinton Recreation Ground
Pavilion project.
iii.
Delegate to the Chief Executive, following
consultation with the Chair, Vice Chair and Opposition Spokes of the South Area
Committee, to award a contract for the Cherry Hinton Recreation Ground Pavilion
project to the tender(s) that are evaluated as the most economically
advantageous to the Council.
