The report from the Director of Children and Families outlined the services for children and families that would be offered from the proposed Kingsbury Intergenerational Children’s Centre. It explained the background to the centre proposal which now included a Phase 3 Sure Start Children’s Centre, facilities for Extended Services for children and young people and accommodation for the Kingsbury Early Intervention Locality Team. The Lead Member for Children and Families, Councillor Arnold, in introducing the report stated that approval in principle was being sought at this stage as it was unclear if collocation funding was secure and also as the application would need to be resubmitted for planning permission. Councillor J Moher (Lead Member, Highways and Transportation) expressed a wish that the new centre would serve residents in areas of Fryent and Kingsbury wards and asked that it be widely publicised.
The recommendations in the report were approved.
RESOLVED:-
(i) that approval in principle be given to the development of the Kingsbury Intergenerational Children’s Centre (as described in the report from the Director of Children and Families) on the site of Kingsbury High School;
(ii) that approval be given to the submission of a revised planning application for that scheme.
