Matters Raised by Scrutiny and other Constitutional Bodies Decision: Deptford Anchor
The Mayor stated the Council’s intention was to engage fully with the Deptford Society to achieve the best possible solution for the locality. Minutes: Deptford Anchor
The Mayor considered a written submission received from the Overview & Scrutiny Business Panel which had endorsed views submitted to them by the Deptford Society.
The Deputy Mayor advised the Mayor that an extensive feasibility study had taken place and concluded there were very limited options for the placement of the Anchor owing to the existence of below surface power supply lines. A new site only 2.5 metres from the previous location was the preferred option. The Deputy Mayor added that there was still scope for consultation on design issues.
Councillor Dromey suggested discussions with the Deptford Society should continue and indicated crowdfunding might only be a partial solution and that attempts to look at CIL and other funding streams were well underway.
The Mayor stated the Council’s intention was to engage fully with the Deptford Society to achieve the best possible solution for the locality. He thanked the Business Panel for highlighting the Anchor issue and asked that they be informed directly of his decision.
RESOLVED that the Overview & Scrutiny Business Panel be informed of the Mayor’s intention tp fully engage with the Deptford Society on proposals for the Deptford Anchor restoration. |
