  • Cardiff Council Cyngor Caerdydd Cabinet Meeting
    CARDIFF COUNCIL CYNGOR CAERDYDD CABINET MEETING: 15 FEBRUARY 2018 INDOOR ARENA INVESTMENT & DEVELOPMENT (COUNCILLOR RUSSELL GOODWAY) AGENDA ITEM:9 REPORT OF DIRECTOR OF ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Appendices 1, 3 and 4 are not for publication as they contain exempt information of the description contained in paragraphs 14 and 21 of Schedule 12A of the Local Government Act 1972. Reason for this Report 1. To present the results of a site options appraisal exercise to identify the preferred location for delivery of the indoor arena project following the administration’s recent announcement in their strategic policy statement Capital Ambition that delivery of a new indoor arena is one of two key strategic regeneration priorities for the city’s core employment zone. 2. To seek authority to prepare a detailed delivery strategy based on the preferred location to include full financial implications for the Council and to report back to a future meeting of Cabinet for authority to proceed. Background 3. Delivery of a new Multi-purpose Arena has been a long standing priority for the city. Since the turn of the millennium, a number of reports have been presented to successive Cabinets outlining the strategic importance of securing a ‘top-tier’ facility. 4. In 2013, the ‘Rebuilding Momentum’ Green Paper consultation identified the lack of a ‘top-tier’ arena as a key weakness in the city’s business and cultural offer. Since then the Council has included actions in its Corporate Plan to progress delivery of the project. 5. In September 2013 Cabinet agreed to a market testing exercise to help develop a specification for a new facility and to gauge private sector interest.
