Decision details
Purchase of Air Quality Monitor
Decision Maker: Director of Place Management
Decision status: Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Purpose:
To move provisional capital of £4.2k to
fully approved for the replacement of a Zephyr Air Quality
Monitor.
The Zephyr is an air quality monitor which measures a range of
parameters such as Nitrogen Dioxide and Particulates and replaces a
now defunct AQMesh analyser. This will be deployable everywhere
– within and outside the CAZ.
Decision:
To fully approve budget of £4.2k,
currently held as provisional in our 2021/22 capital
programme.
Alternative options considered:
To not replace the current monitor. This would
leave us with a gap in our monitoring strategy and would lead to a
reduction in our capability to respond to residents’
concerns, with officers having to provide opinion without the means
to substantiate them.
