The Cabinet had before it a *report of the Deputy Chief Executive (S151) seeking approval of the 2022/23 Capital Programme and noting the draft 2023/24, 2024/25, 2025/26 and 2026/27 programmes.
The Cabinet Member for Finance outlined the contents of the report stating that the capital investment was set against the priorities within the Corporate Plan. The programme had been increased from the previous year due to the significant plan to increase investments into improving energy efficiency of the property estate, increasing the HRA housing stock and plans to fund housing developments through 3 Rivers.
Consideration was given to the increase in the Capital Programme and who sets the limits for the capital funding requirement.
RECOMMENDED to Council that:
1. The detailed Capital Programme for 2022/23 of £34,303k be approved and the indicative Capital Programmes across the four remaining years of this Medium Term Financial Plan covering 2023/24 to 2026/27 be noted.
2. That investment in the Council Housing Development schemes can start straight away (prior to 01/04/2022), following Full Council approval, to allow the design stage to commence and enable the prompt delivery of these projects.
(Proposed by Cllr B A Moore and seconded by Cllr R B Evans)
