City Council Capital Plan

The Administration of the City Council has issued its draft capital plan. The plan can be read here. I would be very interested to hear your views on these proposals.

The biggest spend in the West End would be the refurbished Harris Academy, which is re-announced again. There are a number of areas where it is important to look at the detail of these proposals and I will be seeking to meet with council officers over the next few days to discuss issues around this plan.

It is worth noting that there is an election on the horizon and suddenly the council has awoken out of its inertia and appears to have noticed that there are needs across the city which need to be met. The Labour Group will be examining these proposals. We will certainly be looking for details, I was going to say more details, but there is virtually none at the moment.
