Vehicle Replacement Programme Annual Review 2024
From: Executive - Monday, 4th November, 2024 6.00 pm - November 04, 2024
To review the Council’s five -year rolling Vehicle Replacement Programme (VRP) and make recommendations for capital expenditure to continue to move to a modern fleet of commercial vehicles and ensure that the Council has a resilient and cost-effective fleet, as well as reducing its carbon emissions. In May 2023, the Executive approved a £3.8M rolling five-year Vehicle Replacement Programme for the Council’s vehicle fleet, to be updated each Autumn to inform budget setting for the following year and the Medium-Term Financial Strategy. The 2023 Programme proposed the replacement of 57 vehicles over the five years to 2028. To date, 19 vehicles have been replaced at a cost of £845,000. Eight were new vehicles, with the remainder used. As at the end of September 2024, two of the replacement vehicles were electric and HVO is used in around one third of the vehicle fleet. The 2024 Annual Review proposes a new rolling five-year Vehicle Replacement Programme to 2029/30, estimating that 50 vehicles will need to be replaced at an estimated maximum cost of £4.68M. All available replacement vehicle options will be considered and assessed against estimated whole life costs, impact on fleet carbon emissions and availability of capital budget. The lifetime cost analysis, which takes account of capital purchase and running costs over a 10-year period, highlights that diesel vehicles remain the cheapest vehicle type at present for most of our fleet. The recommended Vehicle Replacement Programme will reduce the carbon emissions of the Council’s fleet in line with the Council’s aspiration to become net zero by 2030. Subject to other decisions, the five new food waste vehicles will be duelled with HVO when the service commences in March 2026, which will effectively negate the carbon impact of these additional fleet vehicles. The use of HVO in the whole diesel fleet to reduce carbon emissions needs to be balanced against the additional cost.
Recommendations Approved
Hill Head to Portsmouth Harbour Beach Management Plan
From: Executive - Monday, 4th November, 2024 6.00 pm - November 04, 2024
The report seeks approval for project delivery of the Hill Head to Portsmouth Harbour Beach Management Plan. The proposed works involve beach renourishment along the coastal frontage between Hill Head and Portsmouth Harbour Entrance. The approval for project delivery includes draw down of project funding, licensing and consents, procurement, and construction under the beach management plan. The report seeks approval to implement the Hill Head to Portsmouth Harbour Beach Management Plan (BMP) 2024-2034, with construction works identified for financial year 2025/26 and 2026/27. The BMP is derived from the adopted River Hamble to Portchester Strategy (2015) which recommended Beach Management as the preferred option to reduce coastal flooding and erosion risk to the communities between Hill Head and Portsmouth Harbour Entrance, whilst enhancing the environment and amenity value of the coastline over the next 10 years. The BMP also aligns with the adopted North Solent Shoreline Management Plan (2010) which recommends a policy of ‘Hold the Line’ for the entire frontage. The BMP works will provide up to 10 years’ worth of benefits. These will be undertaken at different locations in priority order, up to the project funding available, depending on the assets at risk behind the beach. These will be categorised by considering the risk to property, key infrastructure, existing ‘hard’ defences (e.g seawalls), and the amenity value. The BMP has been developed from extensive coastal modelling and technical analysis to develop the beach recycling parameters. This will continue post works, to monitor performance and plan any further works. While the geographical extent of the NMP crosses the local authority boundaries of both Gosport Borough Council (GBC) and Fareham Borough Council (FBC), each authority will take responsibility for its own works delivery and consenting. These projects will be managed by Coastal Partners via an existing shared service agreement to ensure the overall BMP objectives are met. Funding for the project has been allocated through the Environment Agency’s Flood Defence Grant in Aid and Other Government Department funding and will be approved should the Outline Business case be successful. The project will seek additional funding where this can increase the outputs delivered under the project.
