Clough Dike, Deepcar: Culvert Repair / Replacement

The Flood and Water Service Manager provided an update on the failed culvert at Clough Dike in Deepcar, which has been a significant flood risk since November 2019. The council secured £1,390,163 in Flood and Coastal Risk Management grant-in-aid funding and £112,000 in Local Levy from the Environment Agency to fully fund the project. The committee supported the progression of the project into delivery and noted the successes set out in the report.

Devonshire Quarter: Regeneration Update

The Principal Development Officer presented a report on the ongoing regeneration schemes within the Milton Street neighbourhood, part of the wider Devonshire Quarter. The report included a proposed land disposal strategy to ensure a balanced mix of housing and detailed proposals from the owners of the Grade II* Listed Beehive Works to bring the building back into use as a mixed-use commercial hub. The committee noted the progress with housing development, the future land disposal strategy, and supported the continued work with the owners and other partners to develop a viable business plan for Beehive Works.
