  • Bridgend County Borough Council Meeting of Special
    BRIDGEND COUNTY BOROUGH COUNCIL MEETING OF SPECIAL COUNCIL TUESDAY 13 TH JUNE, 2006 REPORT BY THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR - LEARNING SUBJECT: YNYSAWDRE SWIMMING POOL (BRIDGEND SWIMMING DEVELOPMENT CENTRE) 1.0 PURPOSE OF THE REPORT 1.1 To explain the circumstances which have led to a projected overspend on the budget to build a new swimming pool at Ynysawdre and seek authorisation for additional funding to allow the project to go ahead. 2.0 BACKGROUND 2.1 Previous reports to Cabinet in October 2003, March 2004, July 2005, October 2005 and a confidential report to Cabinet in November 2005 provide the detailed background to this scheme. * 2.2 Appendix ‘A’ lists in chronological order the key dates with regard to this project. 3.0 CURRENT SITUATION * 3.1 The Council has recently been advised by Limbrick Ltd, the consultant Architects the Council has employed to design and manage the development of the new pool at Ynysawdre, that the pool as currently designed will cost approximately £555,000 more than the budget available to the Council, Appendix ‘B’, the post tender analysis provided by Limbrick Ltd, provides detail and commentary showing a projected out-turn cost for the project of £4,997,778. Special Council 130606 See detailed breakdown below:- 1.0 Current firm price from Wilmott Dixon Turner £4,079,743 (18 th May 2006) 2.0 Overheads and Profit 5% £203,987 Sub Total £4,283,730 3.0 Professional Fees – percentage element 12% £514,048 4.0 Professional Fees – lump sum element £50,000 Sub Total £4,847,778 5.0 Project Contingency £150,000 6.0 Total Projected Project Cost £4,997,778 7.0 Available Bridgend County Borough Council Budget (£4,443,000) 8.0 Current funding deficit £554,778 3.2 Clearly this further increase in the project costs is both extremely unwelcome and also surprising given that as recently as early April 2006 the Council was being advised that the project was likely to come in only marginally over budget and that Limbrick Ltd were confident that any over-spend could be reduced by appropriate ‘value engineering’.

    GARW VALLEY COMMUNITY SPORTS HUBS – FEASIBILITY STUDY A REPORT BY JANUARY 2018 CONTENTS Page Section 1 – Introduction and Background 1 Section 2 – Need Analysis 3 Section 3 – Community Hub Options and Financial 12 Projections Section 4 – Conclusions and Way Forward 27 APPENDICES Appendix A – Market Segmentation Appendix B – Facility Audit Appendix C – Facility Analysis Appendix D – Management Options Appendix E – Financial Projections Appendix F – Stakeholder Workshop Attendees Appendix G – Project Plan SECTION 1 – INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND Introduction 1.1 Bridgend County Borough Council (the Council) as lead body for Reach (the Rural Development Programme for Bridgend) is currently seeking to explore the potential for the development of one or more sports based community sports hubs in the Garw Valley. 1.2 As a result RPT Consulting has been appointed to develop a feasibility study for community sports hubs based in the Garw Valley, which will seek to address the needs of the local population and key stakeholders. Background 1.3 Currently in the Garw Valley as with all other areas in Bridgend, sports and community groups are considering the transfer of sports and community venues and assets from the Council, through the Community Asset Transfer (CAT) process. 1.4 Some of the assets within the Garw Valley are in a poor state of repair and well below an acceptable standard. The cost of repairing and maintaining these assets is beyond the reach of many of the sport and community groups and therefore a potential solution is being sought to ensure that sporting and community activities are not lost. 1.5 To support the CAT process, Reach has already produced a ‘Rural Community Asset Transfer Toolkit’ which provides groups with a step by step guide to asset transfer and also commissioned a report ‘Review of Sustainable Community Venues and Assets in Bridgend County Borough’, which provides a detailed understanding of the issues faced by groups who both currently are or are considering managing/owning/leasing community facilities.

  • SD92 Landscape Working for Bridgend County Borough Volume
    Landscapes Working for Bridgend County Borough Volume 3 - Action Programme March 2008 _____________________________________________ _____________________________________________ LANDSCAPES WORKING FOR BRIDGEND COUNTY BOROUGH ACTION PROGRAMME 2008 1. Introduction 1.1 The Action Programme forms the fourth phase of the review of the Landscapes Working for Bridgend County Borough Action Plan Document. The phases comprise of: Phase I – Compilation of Short List of sites Phase II – Prioritisation Phase III - WAG Sustainability Check Phase IV – Preparation of Action Programme. Table 1 lists those sites short-listed for inclusion in the action plan. Their location is identified in Figure 1 below. Figure 1 Site Locations 2. Background 2.1 The document Landscapes Working for Bridgend County Borough was originally published in 1997 by Opus Environmental Design. However the Action Programme that formed Volume 3 of the study is now considered outdated and has required updating. The list of priority projects has evolved from the original LW for B document with additional sites being included that have originated from meetings held between Groundwork, officers of Bridgend County Borough Council and Welsh Assembly Government during the year 2006. The prioritisation exercise formed phases 1 and 2 of the Landscapes Working for Bridgend project. This report forms part of the WAG (DEIN) funded Bridgend Environment Programme. 3. Objectives 3.1 The Action Programme details the key proposals with priority and feasibility ratings, outline cost estimates and yearly expenditure profiles. 3.2 The Action Programme is to be used to inform the Local Authority’s Environmental Improvement Programme and has therefore been prepared with regard to the Local Authority’s existing policies and ongoing schemes.
