Capital Plan Fast Track Evaluation: Maintenance Building at Poult Wood Golf Centre and Children's Play Facilities at Leybourne Lakes Country Park |
The joint report of the Director of Planning, Transport and Leisure and the Chief Leisure Officer brought forward 'fast track' Capital Plan evaluations for the maintenance building at Poult Wood Golf Centre and children's play facilities at Leybourne Lakes Country Park for consideration in accordance with the agreed review procedure. It was noted that in the case of the proposed refurbishment of the maintenance building at Poult Wood Golf Course, additional capital expenditure beyond the provision within the 'fast track' contingency of the Capital Plan would be necessary. It was suggested that the possibility of consolidating equipment on the site be investigated together with a potential commercial use to offset some of the additional costs. The Board was advised in respect of the children's play facility scheme at Leybourne Lakes Country Park that full funding had been secured and received from developer contributions. RECOMMENDED: That 1) the proposed refurbishment of the Maintenance Building at Poult Wood Golf Centre (Option 1), as outlined in Annex 1 to the report, be noted and the scheme be deferred to enable the investigation of a potential commercial use of another piece of land on the site to offset some of the additional costs involved; and 2) the proposed installation of Children's Play Facilities at Leybourne Lakes Country Park, as outlined in Annex 2 to the report, be approved and the scheme be included in the Capital Plan List A. *Referred to Cabinet |
