Minutes:

DECISION:

 

To approve the joint Local Investment Plan as the basis for a future investment agreement which will provide a detailed financial plan for delivery of the Grantham Growth Point project.

 

Considerations / reasons for decision:

 

(1)  Report number CHSC0022 by the Portfolio Holder for Economic Development.

(2)  Comments from the Corporate Head for Sustainable Communities that the document was part of the overarching strategy for key projects in the Grantham Growth Point programme and that the plan was aligned with the Good For Business priority.

(3)  Comments from Cabinet Members regarding the hard work that had gone into the Local Investment Plan and noting that the Council had been asked to share its information with other Growth Points.

 

Other options considered:

 

An alternative option would be to not sign up to the Local Investment Plan. However it was not felt that this would be an appropriate way forward, as engagement in the pilot phase of the Single Conversation has offered an opportunity to promote the Grantham Growth Point which would otherwise be missed.
