3/2006 The Cabinet agreed, subject to suitable
budgetary provision being available, to reinstate the revenue
budgets for the five community centres on the basis that the
following action be undertaken:
a) the two community centres at White Road and Woodside are put at
the forefront of the next wave of neighbourhood action plans.
b) the Hook Meadow Community Centre is developed as a key community
enterprise satellite facility for Medway, closely connected to the
Community Enterprise Hub.
c) that officers seek to secure higher levels of income generation
for the Chattenden Community Centre, founded on the greater
involvement of existing stakeholders in the management of the
Centre, notably London & Quadrant, with an option to include
the mechanism of a fully repairing and maintaining lease
agreement.
d) a full review of the Marlborough Road Community Centre site is
undertaken founded on consultation with all existing stakeholders
before defining further recommendations to Cabinet for the medium
to long-term future role of the site.
