Agenda item

Castleton Visitor Centre Remodelling and Improvement Proposals (A.214 /SB)

Minutes:

The Committee considered a report providing an update on proposals for a significant remodelling and improvement of Castleton Visitor Centre and asked for approval of a capital project to take the proposals forward to support the delivery of key purposes and full cost recovery targets as part of the corporate strategy.

 

The Visitor Services Manager and the Corporate Property Manager were present to introduce the report and answer questions.

 

During the discussion Members highlighted the need for the planning application to draw out how the proposals would provide an unmet need for accessible facilities within the village that were not available within the existing businesses.

 

The recommendation was moved, seconded, put to the vote and carried.

 

RESOLVED:

 

1.         To approve a capital project of up to £330,000 financed from borrowing.

 

2.         To authorise the let of contracts up to a maximum of £330,000 for a scheme to remodel and refurbish Castleton Visitor Centre internally.

 

The meeting adjourned from 12.10pm to 12.15pm following consideration of this item.
