Issue - meetings

To consider a report by the Head of Financial Services outlining spending variations for 2008/09.

Received the report and noted the expenditure variations and capital and revenue impact, approved the commencement of the Medium Term Plan schemes for St Ivo Leisure Centre – Football Improvement, Huntingdon West Development and St Neots Green Corridor referred to in paragraph 2.2 and approved the commencement of the Sustainable Homes Retro-Fit scheme, subject to the Executive Councillor for Finance and Environment being consulted on the scheme’s timing in relation to the ongoing housing market.

A report by the Head of Financial Services was submitted (a copy of which is appended in the Minute Book) detailing variations in the Capital Programme in the current year. 

In discussing the main variations in the programme, Executive Councillors’ attention also was drawn to four new proposals identified in the Medium Term Plan process that would have an impact in the current year but which would not be formally approved by Council until February 2009. 

RESOLVED

(a)  that the report be received and the expenditure variations and capital and revenue impact noted;

(b)  that the commencement of the Medium Term Plan schemes for St Ivo Leisure Centre – Football Improvement, Huntingdon West Development and St Neots Green Corridor referred to in paragraph 2.2 of the report now submitted be approved; and

(c)  that the commencement of the Sustainable Homes Retro-Fit scheme be approved, subject to the Executive Councillor for Finance and Environment being consulted on the scheme’s timing in relation to the ongoing housing market.
