Member Discussion – key points:
A request was made for updates on works listed as being for completion in Q4 to be provided, to give a more precise idea of when over the coming months the work would take place. An assurance was given that this would be done through the usual communications team channel.
Clarification was given regarding the money available for repairing winter damage to roads: the funds allocated to the winter damage programme are separate from the general road maintenance funds provided centrally by the county council. The revenue maintenance budget of zero specified in para 2.1.1 of the report refers to the budget directly available to this committee.
