Meeting documents

To update Members on the current progress of the Chiltern Lifestyle Centre and to seek approval of the issue of a lease to a nursery provider to occupy the centre on its completion.

Further, to agree the terms of reference for the Chiltern Lifestyle Centre Community Liaison Group (separate open report).

Cabinet considered a report which detailed progress on the Chiltern Lifestyle Centre, proposals to agree entering to Heads of Terms/Lease arrangements with a private nursery operator to enable future occupation of the nursery space in the Chiltern Lifestyle Centre, changes to the Public Works Loan Board interest rate and proposals to agree funding for outreach youth activity. This would allow a private nursery operator to lease accommodation in the Chiltern Lifestyle Centre and address the risk of increased anti-social behaviour for young people during and following the development of the Chiltern Lifestyle Centre.

Cabinet supported increased outreach activity to encourage youngsters to become more involved in positive activities and take advantage of the new facilities.
