Reasons for Recommendations: These are set out in greater detail
within section 5 of the report, but can be summarised as helping to
meet the Council’s corporate plan objectives:
 
-      
Green sustainable environment
-      
Better, brighter futures
-      
Safe and thriving places

Alternative Options
Considered:
 

·      
For those schemes which are grant funded or from
Section 106 contributions, they are undertaken in accordance with
the requirements of the grant conditions/ legal agreement and,
therefore, there is no alternative option proposed in this
report.

·      
Where individual schemes are over £0.5m,
separate reports are included elsewhere on this agenda, and these
set out the wider options that were considered before reaching the
proposals put forward.
