The Adur Executive Member for Resources has agreed to abstain from this decision as a Worthing matter.
The WBC Executive Member for Resources has approved the refurbishment of Cannon House; authorised the release of a budget of up £400,000 from the Strategic Property Investment Fund (including professional fees) to meet the forecasted build costs; delegated authority to the Head of Major Projects and Investment to undertake a procurement exercise; and to enter into a construction contract after consulting with Executive Members on the outcome of that procurement process.
I approve the recommendations for the reasons set out in the report and following discussions with the Head of Major Projects and Investment. I believe that this is a valuable inward investment in order to promote economic growth.
Alternative options have been considered and dismissed.
