10. Infrastructure and Envrionment Department Captial Delivery Report July 2021
Resolution: Moved by Mayor Teresa Harding:
10. Infrastructure and Environment Department Captial Delivery Report July 2021
This is a report concerning the performance of the capital delivery by the Infrastructure and Environment Department for the month of July 2021.
The Department delivered a total of $4.87 million of capital works against a budget of $5.5 million with the underspend attributed to the timing of receiving invoices for works and the timing of components of the early works being conducted as part of the Springfield Greenbank Arterial duplication project.
This spend reflects the new departmental focus on delivering infrastructure projects throughout the year rather than delivering the majority in the last quarter of the financial year as per previous years.
Overall, the performance has been at high level with the department delivering on its commitment to the community in terms of delivering high quality infrastructure on time and within budget.
