To consider a report of the Director of Culture, Communities and Business Services seeking approval to alterations and refurbishment of Fareham Parkway and the proposed procurement and delivery of the scheme.

To consider a report of the Director of Culture, Communities and Business Services which provides an overview of the alterations and refurbishment at Fareham Parkway and sets out the proposed procurement and delivery of the scheme.

The Panel considered a report from the Director of Culture, Communities and Business Services regarding a project appraisal for the refurbishment of Fareham Parkway (Item 7 in the Minute Book).

Members noted that Fareham Parkway is a two-storey building constructed in the 1980’s which was in a fair condition and functioned effectively as office accommodation. However, elements of the building fabric and services were now in need of modernisation by replacement and/or upgrading as identified by a building fabric condition survey and mechanical and electrical condition appraisals.

The Director advised that these works would provide suitable office accommodation commensurate with the County Council’s standards.

RESOLVED:

That the Buildings, Land and Procurement Panel recommends that the Executive Member for Commercial Strategy, Estates and Property grants spend approval for the project proposals for Fareham Parkway at a total capital cost of £2,500,000.
