Decision details
Royal Victoria Park (RVP) & Café Facilities Refurbishment
Decision Maker: Director of Public Health and Prevention
Decision status: Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Purpose:
Deliver a series of improvements to upgrade
facilities at RVP including: Refurbished café, upgrade to
tennis and golf facilities and refurbishment of public toilets.
Repairs to the Pavilion, these include works to the external
timberwork and improvement works to the embankments to the lower
area, the retaining wall and steps between the old bowling green
and lower tennis courts, plus fire risk assessment priority works
and fencing replacement.
Decision:
To fully approve £98k of capital budget,
fully funded by Corporate Supported Borrowing
Alternative options considered:
Not undertaking the upgrades. This was not
considered acceptable as the facilities are currently not in a good
condition. There is concern about the structural condition
particularly of the embankments to the lower area, and the
deterioration of the timber retaining elements which has occurred
over time.
