Description City of York Council vacated the Guildhall in April 2013, moving to West Offices as part of the Admin Accommodation programme, in order to make approx. £1m pa savings. An evaluation of potential future uses had already been undertaken, and following further feasibility work and review a decision on the Future of the complex was taken by Executive in October 2015. Approval was granted for detailed project development work to secure the future of the Guildhall as a serviced office venue; with virtual office and business club facilities, maximising the benefits of the different spaces within the complex, its heritage appeal, and also ensuring ongoing council use and public access in a mixed use development.

Risks Status Explanation |
· The construction budget is now set. · The contract has now moved into the construction phase a collaborative risk workshop has been undertaken, a revised risk register has been agreed. · The underpinning of the north range is well advanced and this risk should hopefully be removed by the next reporting date. · The river conditions posed a high level of risk for crane erection, the levels are less critical for daily use of the river hence the lowering of the risk to amber. |
