The report of the Corporate Manager Property was submitted outlining issues arising from the establishment of the new Corporate Property Unit and making interim proposals for its efficient management whilst a more robust review of structure and resourcing is carried out. This would ensure a more coordinated approach to ensure the service was also fit for purpose with a focus on more efficiency and effective delivery of the maintenance spend, as well as a more coordinated health and safety overview.
Members welcomed the proposals for a more robust way forward for the Corporate Property Unit.
Scrutiny Committee – Resources considered the report at its meeting on 2 July 2014 and the comments of the Members were noted.
RECOMMENDED to Council that:-
(1) the new post of Corporate Property Assets Manager be approved ;
(2) the new post of Helpdesk Co-ordinator be approved;
(3) the Corporate Energy Manager be designated full time;
(4) the new management structure encompassing the Estates Team and parts of the former Engineering Team be formally approved; and
(5) the Corporate Manager Property proceeds to acquire an Asset Valuation programme in partnership with neighbouring authorities if possible.
