Agenda item

Consideration was given to a report of the Director of the Built Environment which explored options to enhance the environment of the streets and spaces in the vicinity of the redevelopment at 5 Broadgate.

Members discussed the low tolerance figure which was a result of the options development with all key stakeholders involved.  Members were informed that the projects approval procedure did not allow for contingencies, however, if an investigation identified that additional expenditure was required, then Section 278 funding could be used.

RESOLVED – That,

a)     option 3 be approved for progression through to detailed design stage with the subsequent design and authority to start works presented at the next Gateway;

b)     a public consultation on the preferred option be carried out concurrent with the early stages of the detailed design based on the preferred option.
