LLANELLI WELLNESS AND LIFE SCIENCE VILLAGE Additional documents:
Minutes: Following the application of the public interest test it was UNANIMOUSLY RESOLVED, pursuant to the Act referred to in Minute 11 above, to consider this matter in private, with the public excluded from the meeting, as it would involve the disclosure of exempt information contained in the report which contained financial information relating to the RIBA stage 3 design services to be provided. Although the public interest test would normally favour transparency and openness, this was outweighed by the public interest in maintaining confidentiality in this case so as to protect the commercial interests of the provider in the wider market, as well as the Authority’s interests for the purposes of further portions of design services to be sought.
The Executive Board considered a report which provided an update on the progress and future delivery timescale for the Llanelli Wellness and Life Science Village and detailed the need to commission further design development work for the City Deal and the Carmarthenshire County Council leisure elements of the Village in order to maintain programme. UNANIMOUSLY RESOLVED 12.1to note the project dependencies and timeline implications for alternative scenarios to fund phase one delivery of the Village. Phase one to include the City Deal and Carmarthenshire County Council Leisure elements; 12.2to acknowledge the process milestones and commissioning requirements for the alternative scenarios and the impact on completion dates; 12.3to agree to progress to RIBA stage 3 on a phased basis. The proposal is to divide this work into separate phases with the first element costing £600,000. The work will further refine the detailed space, functionality and design linked to academic and health partner commitment. A subsequent report will follow successful completion of this first element to seek approval to complete RIBA Stage 3 work; 12.4to approve the expenditure of £600,000 on phase 1 of the RIBA stage 3 design worksand approve the funding via the City Deal Earmarked Reserve.
Mr. Mark James C.B.E., Chief Executive The Chair commented that this had been Mr. Mark James’ last meeting of the Executive Board and, on behalf of the Members, he thanked Mr. James for all his guidance and wished him well for the future. Mr. James thanked members for their good wishes.
