Issue - meetings

The Cabinet considered a report on the proposed increase in the Council’s Capital Programme for 2008/09 to fund the purchase of new Christmas lights.  Over the last 3 years due to wear, tear and age the Christmas lights had diminished significantly.  The installation of the new Christmas lights would contribute towards the regeneration of Bromsgrove Town Centre.

RECOMMENDEDthat the Capital Programme for 2008/2009 be amended to include the sum of £27,000 to fund the Capital elements of the Christmas lights and that this be funded from the Local Authority Business Grant Initiative.
