Extensive internal and external consultation has taken place with partners, including

Decision:

Worthing Cabinet Member for Regeneration: I have reviewed the proposals and agree to approve the award of a contract to Makers Construction to the value of £483,598+vat.

 

Adur Cabinet Member for Environment and Leisure: I abstain from this decision as it is predominantly a Worthing matter.

Reasons for the decision:

The necessary repairs are critical for the planned plant installations scheduled for autumn 2024 and vital for maintaining the structural integrity of the car park. The car park plays an important role in our local economy and its revenue.

Alternative options considered:

Not to carry out works would prevent commencement of the Heat Network project and have a detrimental effect on the integrity of the car park.
