Bridge Estate Budget Report PDF 240 KB Report of the Strategic Director of Finance Minutes: Thomas Straw, Senior Accountant, introduced the report detailing the 2020/21 budget for the Bridge Estate for approval and forecasting future years, highlighting the following:
(a)
the forecast rental income is expected to decrease over the next
three years largely due to the assumption regarding rental decrease
in relation to the Lister Gate units when their leases
expire; (b)
Nottingham City Council has historically assumed that the Bridge
Estate is able to contribute £1.5m as part of the Bridge
Estates charitable objectives. However, if the Bridge Estate
performs as forecast it will generate a revenue pressure for the
Council; (c) the Bridge Estate Trust has extinguished the Bridge Repair Reserve when undertaking the works which were completed during 2020/21. Therefore, an annual provision is required to replenish the reserve to fund repainting and structural repairs which will be required again in 2035/36. The new annual contribution is based on the 2020/21 costs inflated to 2035/36 and has been worked out as £0.1m,
Resolved to
(1)
approve the 2020/21 budget for the Bridge Estate
Trust; (2) note the financial forecast for 2022/23 and 2023/24. |
