Decision published: 22/03/2023

Effective from: 20/03/2023

Decision:

 

It was AGREED:

 

1.               to fund up to an additional 10% of the original funded value (up to £50,000) for increased costs relating to current inflation levels towards Your Fund Surrey project CF171 Leatherhead & Dorking Gymnastics.

 

a.    The original grant award for £500,000 was granted 05/07/2022. An additional 10% inflation hardship claim of up to £50,000 is allowable, and fully in line with, the Cabinet decision from November 20221.

b.    Works are currently underway and approaching fit-out of the new building.

c.     Costs have increased due to increased material and labour costs across the build, including construction, electrics and plumbing. The evidence provided by the applicant sufficiently demonstrates the impact of inflationary pressures on the project.

d.    Contingency funding included within the original grant award (£63,000) is also being claimed towards increased costs, however the additional 10% is also required to ensure successful completion of the build and achievement of the assessed community benefits.
