Purpose

1.1 To update on the Council’s Capital Programme 2023/24,
which is now £118.361m as described in section 5.1.

1.2 To outline the Council’s proposed Capital Programme
2024/25 to 2028/29, as a basis for consultation (Section
5.2).

1.3 To outline to Members’ the risks of borrowing to finance
the Capital Programme and its long term impacts on the longer term
financial sustainability of the Council and Treasury Management
Strategy (TMS), as discussed in section 5.3.

1.4 Some of the assumed external funding included in the programme
is still subject to clarification from Government and other sources
and in some cases may involve bids for funds. It is therefore
recommended that all approvals are subject to confirmation of
funding allocations.
