Approval was granted to carry out the roof
repairs at Hope centre to
enable the transfer of the freehold to the HOPE Trustees.

The capital bid was for £60k, which included for works and
fees. The
tendered return resulted in a £12,705k forecasted underspend
on the
project. Subsequently whilst works have been in progress, a third
area
of roof has been found to be leaking.
To ensure a cost effective solution was achieved the
incumbent
Contractor was requested to quote for the work, which amounts
to
£23,943, which includes the benefit of having already set up
site and the
necessary scaffolding, welfare facilities et cetera.
As a result, the existing budget will require up to an additional
£15k to
complete the works. The total cost for the project, inclusive of
the 15k
being requested, is £74,830
Incorporating this additional work will enable the terms of the
sale to be
concluded and simultaneously terms for a new lease can be settled
at
more favourable terms (circa. 50% reduction) for the council.
