KEY DECISION
 
That the Executive:
 
i)              
Approved the following changes into the capital
programme:
 
a.   
Earls Barton School Expansion – additional
budget approval of £762k in 2025/26 to be funded from Basic
Needs capital grant.
 
b.

c.

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
-      
Connected communities
-      
Active, fulfilled lives
 
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.
