Agenda item

The Sub-Committee considered a report of the Director of the Built Environment concerning the Bloomberg Development at Cannon Street.

The Sub-Committee was advised the due to a recent design change at Cannon Street affecting the proposed highway levels, there was now a need to place orders for additional preparatory works (including utility diversions) in advance of the Gateway 5 approval.  The design change had been requested by the developer who was funding the highway works as part of their s278 obligations. 

RESOLVED - That

1)            Authority be given for orders to be placed for any necessary preparatory works (such as utility diversions) in advance of the Gateway 5 approval provided funding is received from the developer; and

2)            Agreement be given for construction material (such as Yorkstone paving) with critical lead-in times to be pre-ordered before Gateway 5 approval subject to funding being received from the developer.
