RESOLVED to
approve:

 

    The withdrawal of the Masterplan
formally approved by Cabinet on 20 December
2018;

 

    Continuing engagement with key
stakeholders on future operational options for Elvaston Castle and
Gardens Estate on the basis of the above decision;

 

    The current capital budget to be
held and available for the Estate to fund delivery of the

low-risk developments focused on increasing visitor numbers, to
reduce the current financial subsidy, and keep the Estate
maintained in line with health and safety
standards;

 

    The Growth Fund of 0.050m per annum
allocated to the Masterplan be transferred to the Countryside
Service to fund additional staffing resource to support the
delivery of the Enterprise Plan;

 

    Granting delegated authority to the
Executive Director Place, in consultation with the Director of
Legal and Democratic Services, to agree a new governance structure
and collaboration agreement between the Council and Elvaston Castle
and Gardens Trust; and

 

    Allocating funding of 0.028m to
Elvaston Castle and Gardens Trust for 2025-26
financial year and for each of the following two years with a 3%
uplift per annum.
