To consider a report of the Executive Councillor (Economic Development & Regeneration)

The report seeks Executive commitment to support the Bramall Hall and Park project during project delivery phase (2014/15 to 2016/17) and for a sustained period (2017/18 to 2023/24) after the completion of the project.  A commitment of support would not place any additional revenue budget requirements on the Council, but would mean allocating an annual cash limited budget for Bramall Hall for a ten year period.  The value of this would be £0.155m in years 1-3 (2014/15 to 2016/17) and £0.116m in years 4-10 (2017/18 to 2023/24).

The Executive is recommended to commit to support the Bramall Hall and Park project and to maintaining sufficient allowances within budgets to deliver enhanced learning and engagement activities following completion of the project.
