WBC Cabinet Member for the
Environment: I approve the award of a contract to the
successful tenderer, Mountjoy Ltd, to
undertake the refurbishment of the public conveniences and
construction of the Changing Places facility for the sum of
£385,085.84.
 
Adur Cabinet Member for Leisure &
Environment: I am happy to abstain from this decision as it is
essentially a Worthing matter.

Reasons for the decision

WBC Cabinet Member for the
Environment: I approve this decision to engage Mountjoy Ltd to
undertake the major internal overhaul of the existing High Street
car park public toilets. Planning permission has been granted and
the decision ensures the Council fulfils the terms of the Changing
Places grant, enabling the start of these much needed, modern and
equitable refurbishments.

Alternative options considered

A feasibility study was prepared that
considered 4 options. Of these, option B best addresses the
Equalities Act and provides a dedicated parent and baby/child
facilities and reduces maintenance issues relating to ASB.
