Minutes:

 

Councillor Porter introduced the report and welcomed the proposals to award CIL fundings to a number of projects.  The Council would contact unsuccessful applicants to offer advice and assistance with their application should they wish to apply again.

 

Linda Warren (Chair of Open Space Shedfield Parish Council) spoke during public participation in support of the Parish Council’s project which was recommended to receive funding (Recommendation 2.7).  In summary, she explained why improvements to the existing pavilion were required and had brought along additional background documentation in support of the application.

 

The Leader thanked Ms Warren for her comments and asked that she leave the documentation with the officer team

 

At the invitation of the Leader, Councillor Williams addressed Cabinet as summarised below:

·         As a ward councillor, support for the proposed CIL funding for a zebra crossing facility in Otterbourne;

·         The crossing was vital on a busy main road which was likely to experience increased traffic with the scheduled upgrade to the M3 motorway;

·         Recognised that County Council input was also required.

 

Councillor Porter thanked Councillor Williams for her comments and confirmed that the County Council would be involved.

 

In response to the announcement made regarding Station Approach earlier in the meeting (and noted above), Councillor Weir proposed an amendment to Recommendation 4 of the Report to include the words “provisional allocation to be reviewed after 12 months” after the existing words in Recommendation 4.2.  This was agreed.

 

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