This report provides an update on the current financial year 2023-24 priority planned maintenance programme (including any additional health & safety and emergency works undertaken during the year).  It also seeks approval for the forthcoming 2024-25 priority planned maintenance works.

The Committee considered the following matters:

a)            Formal Garden Fence Repair. A Member enquired as to whether the damaged formal gardens fence ought to be on the list of priority works. The Senior Surveyor explained that the repair of the fence was not considered a priority matter. The Streetcare Manager said that she would look into options for reducing the costs for repairing the fence.

Following consideration, the Committee resolved to:

(1)          Note the progress of the works (including the additional Health & Safety and emergency works) carried out during the current financial year 2023-24.

‘Approve the proposed planned maintenance priority works for 2024-25, as set out at section 4 of the report.’

The Chair seconded the proposal. The Committee unanimously agreed to the proposal.

Subsequently, the Committee unanimously resolved to:

(2)          Approve the proposed planned maintenance priority works for 2024-25, as set out at section 4 of the report.
