Decision:
In consultation
with the Monitoring Officer, Section 151 Officer, Chairman of the Harbours
Committee and the Portfolio Holder for Highways, Travel and the Environment and
the Chair of Place Resources and Scrutiny Committee, the Executive Director for
Place has decided that a payment in excess of £500k
can be made in relation to the replacement of pontoons at Customs House Quay as
outlined above.
Reason(s) for Decisions:
It will be more cost effective in the long-term to
replace the full complement of Customs House Quay pontoons with the higher
specification products at this time. This will also improve safety and increase
operational flexibility.
