PDF 211 KBThe council has secured an award of
£675k of LEP funding to spend on infrastructure in 2021/22 to

funding is in addition to £5,432k previously awarded LEP
funds and the £14,947k of capital funding already in the
approved capital programme (both of which are shown as separate
projects on the capital programme). The funding will enable the
council to carry out additional infrastructure work and hence
