PART ONE
72. MADEIRA TERRACE
72.1 The Executive Director for Economy, Environment & Culture introduced the report which provided an update for Members on the delivery of the first phase of the restoration of Madeira Terrace. He noted that the design team had been working on bringing forward proposals for the first thirty arches and the three crowd-funded arches. There had been extensive community engagement and stakeholder involvement which would continue as the project progressed.
72.2 The Committee welcomed the report and thanked the officers and noted the cross-party support for the project. It was felt to be an important step for the council and the future of the arches and the local community as well as the city as a whole.
72.3 The Chair noted the comments and put the recommendations to the vote, which were carried.
72.4 RESOLVED:
(1) That the work of the Advisory Panel and Project Board and the principle of the RIBA Stage 0-1 conclusions and the option proposed as outlined at paragraphs 3.17 to 3.44 of this report be noted;
(2) That delegated authority be granted to the Executive Director Economy, Environment & Culture, in consultation with the cross-party project board, to agree RIBA Stages 2 and 3, up to and including submitting a scheme for planning consent; and
(3) That it be noted that a further report would be brought to the committee when the design team were ready to present the final design, associated costs and seek authority to commence procurements for contractors to carry out the works.
