Decision details
Weymouth Quay Regeneration Project payments over £500,000
Decision Maker: Portfolio Holder for Highways, Travel and Environment
Decision status: Recommendations Approved
Is Key decision?: Yes
Is subject to call in?: Yes
Purpose:
Decision
(a)
That
payments in excess of £500k be paid by Dorset Council
in relation to the delivery of the Weymouth Quay Regeneration Project.
(b)
That the agreement to make such payments be
delegated to the Executive Director for Place to approve, in consultation with
the Portfolio Holder for Highways, Travel and Environment and the Portfolio
Holder for Economic Growth, Assets and Property.
Reason
for the Decision
There
is potential for a number of transactions in the
coming months to be in excess of the £500k threshold, and by agreeing to the
recommendation disbursements of grant funds can be made as required and without
delay. In agreeing payments under the delegation, the Executive Director will
ensure that the funds are released only in accordance with CCF and MHCLG grant
conditions, thereby minimising risk to DC as accountable body.
Budget
Implications
Dorset
Council is the accountable body for the Weymouth Quay Regeneration Project and
has an agreement with the Ministry of Communities Housing and Local Government
(MHCLG) to deliver the project outcomes.
