To submit the
detailed Planning Application for the Government funded LUF scheme
at the Carnarvon Terrace site, Clacton-on-Sea.

Reasons for the decision

On 6 October 2023
Cabinet considered a report titled ‘Levelling Up Fund and Capital Regeneration Projects -
Progressing the Projects to Planning Permission’. As part of
that report, Cabinet delegated authority to the Corporate Director
Place and Economy in consultation with the Portfolio Holder for
Economic Growth, Regeneration and Tourism to procure appropriate
resources and commission a project team to carry out the associated
work including for the design briefs.
 
This decision
enables the submission of the Planning Application which will
enable a Planning Permission to be obtained and the delivery of the
project to progress, per our commitment.

Alternative options considered

Not submitting the
application.
 
Taking this
approach would mean the works did not progress, and the project
would stall. We may also then be required to return monies to
MHCLG.
