Decision details

Councillor Jeff Clarke (Portfolio Holder for Transport and Planning) introduced the report and summarised its key elements. In response Councillor Keith Kondakor observed that a number of the work types listed on page 45 of the agenda pack were on-going maintenance. They were not new projects. In addition, Councillor Kondakor requested that greater emphasis be placed on sustainable schemes such as bus shelters and the installation of cycle stands at shops.

In response to a question from Councillor Adkins around scheme progress during and post Covid-19, Cabinet was informed that an officer from each area will work with contractors to ensure that as much gets done as possible.

Resolved:

That Cabinet supports the proposed changes to the Delegated Budget Scheme and implements them for the 2021/22 financial year.
