Decision details

Decision Maker: Deputy Leader of the Council and Economic Growth, Regeneration & Tourism Portfolio Holder

Decision status: Recommendations Approved

Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: Yes

Decision:

To submit the detailed Planning Application for the Government funded CRP scheme at the two sites in Victoria Street, Dovercourt.

Reasons for the decision:

On 6 October 2023 Cabinet considered a report titled ‘Levelling Up Fund and Capital Regeneration Projects - Progressing the Projects to Planning Permission’. As part of that report, Cabinet delegated authority to the Corporate Director Place and Economy in consultation with the Portfolio Holder for Economic Growth, Regeneration and Tourism to procure appropriate resources and commission a project team to carry out the associated work including for the design briefs.
This decision enables the submission of the Planning Application which will enable a Planning Permission to be attained and the delivery of these to progress.

Alternative options considered:

Not submitting the application.
Taking this approach would mean the works did not progress, and the project would stall. We may also then be required to return monies to MHCLG.
