Minutes:
The Cabinet Member for Communities, Leisure and Arts introduced the report and highlighted the following:
·
£180,000 would
be spent on the museum development plan, which included upgrading
the local history gallery and accessibility;
·
£2.25 million
would be spent on the existing Leisure Centre Capital Improvements,
with £60 million proposed to be spent over several years on
the construction of a new leisure centre;
· £250,000 would be spent on the Mote Park kiosk refurbishment.
It was stated that approving the capital programme was not approval to spend.
In response to the comments made, the Cabinet Member stated that:
- The Museum team was looking into installing a memorial to Mr Paul Oldham, possibly in the local history gallery;
- The ramp to improve accessibility within the Museum was for the upstairs floor; and
- The Mote Park Kiosk project would be reviewed by the Committee before a decision was made.
The Committee expressed support for the proposals and noted that thanks should be given to The William and Edith Oldham Charitable Trust for their significant financial support to the Museum.
RESOLVED to RECOMMEND to the CABINET: To
1.
Agree the capital programme 2024/25 onwards as set
out in Appendix B to the report; and
2. Note that agreement to recommendation 1 above will be subject to the prudential borrowing limit which will be recommended to Council as part of the Treasury Management Strategy 2024/25.
