A reprofile is requested to reflect the lower level of spend in 2022/23. Preconstruction costs have not been fully charged for the year. The completion of RIBA stage 4 has also been extended into 2023 to allow for completion of the detailed designs, thus changing the construction start. An enabling package is in place to account for the programme changes and this has resulted in the construction programme and the associated costs being reforecast into 23/24. The project cost has been revised and was reported to P&R Committee in July 2022. |

Start on site has been delayed until January 2023. The anticipated spend this year reflects the proportion of spend on site set up and preliminaries, the overall project spend remains in line with the approved budget but will be incurred during 2023/24. |

Moulsecoomb Hub - Housing |
The appropriation will be delayed as all buildings remain occupied until enabling works take place which include substantial amounts of demolition. This also impacts the Brownfield Land Release Funding as most of this grant will need to be reprofiled to match up with the demolition anticipated to take place during 2023/24. Some smaller pieces of enabling works such as investigations into the air raid shelters will take place this financial year. There will still be a significant portion of spend on finalising the designs and additional surveys required. A planning decision is due at December 2022 committee. |

Victoria Road |
The overspend of £1.785m on the original approved budget, relates to the total project costs for both the Sports Pavilion and Housing schemes. 60% of the overspend is attributable to overruns in the construction costs above the Agreed Maximum Price for both the Sports Pavilion and Housing Scheme. Both schemes have been constructed during a time of great uncertainty as a result of Brexit, the Pandemic and the war in the Ukraine, which is having a considerable impact on the UK economy and the construction market. This, together with the tightening up of Fire Safety Regulations post Grenfell, has significantly contributed to the uplift in project costs. The remaining 40% of the overspend is attributable to the extra professional fees associated with the detailed design stages of the Housing scheme. The scheme has required greater design coordination from the Lead Architect and input from specialist designers than was originally anticipated. A summary of Lessons Learnt on the project has been shared with the Housing Supply Programme and Members Boards as well as the council’s Strategic Construction Partnership with Morgan Sindall. |

Home Purchase Scheme |
The council has an active programme of buy backs. At present the project is on track to secure offers against the majority of the budget by the end of March. However due to a slow down in properties available for the council to review during the summer months the council is anticipating some purchases will now be secured from April 23 onwards. |

Extended Home Purchase Scheme |
The council continues to review suitable opportunities for larger acquisitions with some possibilities currently under review. It is proposed to use this budget to fund the lease surrender at Charles Kingston Gardens which will bring 18 seniors housing properties into council ownership. At present no other acquisition been progressed sufficiently to make an offer and therefore it is likely that any further purchases will now take place in 2023/24. |

The underspend is due to several variables, mainly planning delays and contractor capacity (high demand for builders). |

Kitchens |
There has been a significant underperformance by the planned works contractor for Kitchen and Bathroom replacements which has resulted in an underspend. To address this performance issue going forward, approval has been given by Housing Committee (16th Nov) to procure up to two further contractors for this work stream. Procurement is likely to take 3 months so it is unlikely that there will be a significant change in spend on this budget until next financial year. Work continues with the current contractor on improving. |
