To seek approval for the detailed designs to be submitted as part of the planning application for the remodelled Ferneham Hall.
The concept design (Appendix A) and budget cost for the remodelling of Ferneham Hall and the preferred operator for the new community arts venue were agreed by the Executive on 26 September.
Overseen by the Ferneham Hall Project Member Working Group, the development of a design that best matches the Council’s agreed vision has rapidly progressed.
Following extensive work, a detailed design to be submitted as part of a planning application was approved by the Member Working Group on 3 December 2019.
The Leisure and Community Scrutiny Panel commented on the designs on 16 December 2019.
The proposed detailed external design (Appendix B) is presented for approval. Work is ongoing on some of the technical aspects of the design. Therefore, there may be minor alterations to this design ahead of its submission as part of the planning application.
If approved, the design, potentially subject to minor alterations, will be submitted as part of a planning application later in January 2020. The estimated determination date will be in March 2020, following a period of public consultation.
RESOLVED that the Executive:
(a) noted the comments of the Leisure and Community Scrutiny Panel; and
(b) approves the principle of the detailed design for the remodelled Ferneham Hall, as outlined in Appendix B to the report, and that this, including any minor alterations be submitted as part of a planning application.
