Minutes:
The Leader introduced the report of the Director of Development and Regeneration which provided an update on progress on the proposed first phase retail development at Skelmersdale Town Centre and sought agreement to continue to move forward with the project.
In reaching the decision below, Cabinet considered the details as set out in the report before it, and accepted the reasons contained therein.
RESOLVED A. That delegated authority be given to the Director of Development and Regeneration, in consultation with the Portfolio Holder for Economic Regeneration, to take all necessary steps to enable a Phase 1 scheme to proceed, including agreeing terms and accepting LEP Growth Funding, as set out in paragraph 7.2 of the report.
B. That call-in is not appropriate for this item due to the limited timescales to agree a fixed price tender for the construction contract and the deadline for project completion should the LEP Growth Fund grant application be successful.
