Shaw and Crompton Community Hub pdf icon PDF 129 KB

To note the current status of the Shaw & Crompton Community Hub project.

Minutes:

Briefing note received which provided an update on the Shaw and Crompton Community Hub Project.

Members were advised that further to the Estates and Technology Transformational Fund (ETTF) offering capital towards the cost of improving existing primary care premises this scheme reflected the plan to relocate 2 GP Practices. Oakgables Partnership and the Village to a council owned development site on Westway, Shaw.

The planned development could be eligible for an ETTF primary care capital grant towards some of the scheme costs, which was available through the Greater Manchester Health and Social Care Partnership.

Revenue funding of £500k had been awarded to support the scheme to progress to an outline business care and then to a full business case in order that an informed final decision could be made as to the development going ahead.

A draft scoping document was produced however there had been little progress with regard to the Outline Business Case as the quote for the work was close to £500k with a possible increase in those costs dependent upon the final build cost of the scheme.

The Clinical Commissioning Group had met with the Oakgables Partnership Practice and explained that one of the options in the development appraisal could be that the Council takes ownership of the premises as well as the site and that the practice leases the accommodation from the Council.

The CCG had informed the practice that if they wanted to own the site, both Oakgables Partnership and the Village Practice would have to raise the funding to acquire the site as the whole of the development would not be covered by a capital grant.

The Council has indicated to the CCG that it would consider all options once the CCG had completed a Full Business Case, including developing the scheme.

NHS England has supported progressing the scheme through to the Final Business Case process to ensure fully informed decision can be made in respect of the proposed development. 

The CCG has sought 3 quotations from an NSH Framework with a view to appointing a consultation to undertake both an outline business case and a full business case for the project which is expected to take circa 9 to 12 months to complete and the options will be considered.

 

RESOLVED – That the update be noted.

A Planning application had been submitted to the Planning committee for consideration.

A comprehensive Transport Assessment had been prepared and submitted as part of the planning application. Any requirements to amend highways layout or provide traffic calming measures would be the subject of conditions attached to the planning permission.

 

Community Relations

The admission criteria was outlined in the report. The School has met with the Council to look at including, partner primary schools who are part of the trust, in between criteria 5 and 6. This would almost guarantee that students from partner primaries would gain a place if Crompton House was submitted as first choice school.

Due to the timeframe required when schools changed their admission criteria this change can only come into effect for Year 7 intake of 2020.

 

Copy of Schools Deeds

The School had asked the trustees if it was possible to make the school deeds available on the school website. The request was declined however Councillor Murphy had been given permission to share the title deeds if asked.  

 

RESOLVED – That the update be noted.
