The report proposed moving the unspent EcoTowns capital grant from the stalled PortZed development to wider climate change and biodiversity projects across the Shoreham Harbour area. It also proposed using existing cross-authority governance arrangements to identify and oversee future spending.

Recommendation

Approve the reassignment of the EcoTowns capital funding to climate change and biodiversity projects across the Shoreham Harbour Area, approve the indicative governance arrangements, and delegate authority to the Assistant Director for City Development and Regeneration to agree the details with the relevant authorities in consultation with the Chair of the Policy and Resources Committee.

Financial impact

No direct financial implications arise from the report; £460,000 of EcoTowns capital grant held by Brighton & Hove City Council is proposed for release to fund wider climate change and biodiversity capital projects.
