Issue - meetings

Councillor Brook introduced the Report and in summary clarified that the solution actioned by the Chief Executive under her emergency powers was the best and most cost effective solution.

The Corporate Head of Regulatory provided further information regarding how the situation had arisen in the first place resulting in work halting on site and why it was necessary to proceed quickly with the new drainage works which are needed to stop water discharging onto the adjacent highway.  Hence agreeing the additional funding without delay was an appropriate use of the CX’s powers.

Cabinet agreed to the following for the reasons set out above and outlined in the Report.

RESOLVED:

That the Decision made under Section 6 A.2 of the Scheme of Delegation to Officers, as detailed in Exempt Appendix 1, be noted.
