3 Public Questions and Statements

Mayor Ros Jones read out the following question which had been submitted by Councillor Jane Cox.

 

‘The OBC makes reference to significant sums from Gain share allocation and Local Growth Fund for the full amount and match funding only commences when the funds are exhausted. The implication is that CDC will bear the full financial risk of the reinstatement costs which could be more than £83m. What scrutiny will be applied to the airport operator? What contingencies are there, a delay in reopening the airspace or in a worse-case scenario losing the airspace carries significant financial impacts or a Black Swan event occurs.’

 

The Mayor thanked Councillor Cox for herquestion and read out the following response, a copy of which would be forwarded to Councillor Coxfollowing the meeting:-

 

Thank you for your question Councillor Cox.  The Council is undertaking a procurement exercise to identify an airport operator. As part of that process the financial strength, business plans and investment plans of operators will be considered, and a contract will be agreed upon with a successful operator which will deal with the costs of reopening and developing the Airport. Until such time as that work is concluded it would be inappropriate to engage in speculation as to the costs of such an endeavour but the processes being undertaken by our procurement team are designed to ensure that the interests of the Council are protected.
