RESOLVED
 
KEY DECISION
 
That the Executive:
 

a) Noted the obligations on NNC to progress the adoption of
roads and infrastructure on the Oakley Vale development.

 

b) Approved that the budget of £971,350, as per the
value of the external works deposit held, be added to the Capital
Programme to allow works to road adoptions at Oakley Vale Phase
5.

 

c) Delegated authority to the Executive Member for Highways,
Travel & Assets in consultation with the Executive Director for
Place & Economy to procure the necessary remedial works to the
road and infrastructure at Oakley Vale Phase 5 and recover these
costs from the external works deposit.
 
 
Reasons for
Recommendations:
 

·    
To fulfil the obligations entered into by CBC,
completing the works and spending the external monies in accordance
with the Infrastructure Works Agreement and supplemental agreements
to progress the adoption of roads and infrastructure.

·    
To procure and undertake the required works in line with the
Council’s constitution and financial regulations in relation
to governance.
 
Alternative Options
Considered: The only other option available is to do nothing,
however given the legal obligations on the Council, as the works
deposit covers the budget cost of the works and because of the
negative public perception if adoption was not progressed, this
option is not recommended.
