3.    That the £60,000 S106 funding for the Beddington Lane Cycle Route be approved.

 

Minutes:

Councillor Mark Allison, the Cabinet Member for Finance presented the report which provided a good example of the work of the Council.  There was a need to recognise the pressures the Council was under from central government, however locally the Council had done a good job which had resulted in a modest overall underspend of approximately 1%.

 

The Assistant Director of Resources advised that pressures were increasing on front line services and officers would update Members on a quarterly basis.

 

The Chair thanked officers for guiding the Council through difficult times with cuts of up to 40%, and stressed that Members would continue to protect the most vulnerable in society.
