Councillor Tatler (Cabinet Member for Regeneration, Planning & Growth) introduced a report seeking approval for use of Strategic Community Infrastructure Levy (SCIL) funding to support the delivery of three projects relating to Preston Community Library, the spine road within Northwick Park as part of the One Public Estate Development and a nursery development project at Grove Park Pavilion.
In considering the report, Cabinet noted the benefits identified in relation to the schemes at Preston Community Library and Grove Park Nursery given the impact they would have in the delivery of community facilities designed to enable local communities to lead on the development and management of activities within their area and in terms of the Northwick Park Spine Road as a key infrastructure project assisting to unlock growth in the area and also delivery additional community facilities and housing.
Members were also keen to recognise the positive impact being created through the use of SCIL as part of the wider programme of regeneration activity and its associated benefits for local communities across the borough with thanks expressed for the work being undertaken to deliver the ongoing programme of growth and regeneration across the borough given the benefits identified for both current and future residents.
In support of the wider benefits identified and ongoing commitment to create long lasting and positive change for local communities across the borough supported by the associated infrastructure Cabinet RESOLVED:
(1) To approve the use of £600k of SCIL for the fit out of Preston Community Library.
(2) To approve the use of up to £3m of SCIL for the completion of the spine road at Northwick Park as part of the One Public Estate development.
(3) To approve the use of £500k of SCIL for the nursery development project at Grove Park Pavilion.
