Decision details

Keynsham High Street Heritage Action Zone (HAZ) - CIL Approval

Decision Maker: Director of Regeneration & Housing

Decision status: Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Purpose:

To fully approve £50k provisional capital budget to support the final stage of delivery of the Keynsham High Street Heritage Action Zone programme. This funding forms B&NES match funding to this external £1.1m grant funded programme but can now be fully approved following allocation of Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) for 2023/24. The funding supports the delivery of the Heritage Action Zone programme projects as set out in the Grant Fund Agreement agreed by Cabinet in September 2020.

Decision:

To fully approve capital budget of £50K funded from Community Infrastructure Levy.

Alternative options considered:

Failure to progress this approval, would leave parts of the HAZ programme undeliverable and would mean that the Council does not meet the match funding requirements for the external grant.
