Report of the Director of Built Environment

Further to Minute No. 46 of the Cabinet meeting held on 16 August 2012, the Council considered the report of the Director of Built Environment on the award of the Stepclever Legacy grant for the Stepclever Legacy Fund Project to support new and existing businesses in South Sefton and North Liverpool.

This was a Key Decision and was included in the Council’s Forward Plan of Key Decisions.

It was moved by Councillor P. Dowd, seconded by Councillor Maher and

RESOLVED:            That

(1)       the award of Stepclever Legacy grant to the Council for the delivery of the Stepclever Legacy Fund Project be noted; and

(2)            approval be given to the inclusion of the Stepclever Legacy Fund Project within the Council’s Capital Programme for 2012/13 and 2013/14 (subject to the receipt of a written offer of grant), at a cost of £1,847,749 to be fully funded from the Stepclever Legacy Grant.  (£563,020 of this sum is residual funding from the Stepclever Property Project and is already included in the current Regeneration Capital Programme).
