Capital Programme – Monitor 2 2022/23

Summary

1 The purpose of this report is to set out the projected outturn position for 2022/23 including any under/over spends and adjustments, along with requests to re-profile budgets to/from current and future years.

2 The 2022/23 capital programme approved by Council on 7 February 2022 and updated for amendments reported to Executive in the 2021/22 outturn report resulted in an approved capital budget of £193.550m.

Impact of Inflation on the Capital Programme

3 The current levels of inflation experienced in the economy over the last year and forecast to persist over the coming months has impacted the ability to deliver all the outcomes across the capital programme.

4 Looking at the capital programme we can demonstrate the indicative additional costs that would be required to deliver projects at 2021/22 prices. It should be noted that 38% of the 5 year capital programme is externally funded.

	Budget £’000	Estimated Annual Inflation %	Inflation Cumulative %	Inflationary Impact £’000
2022/23	159,987	10%	10.0	15,999
2023/24	190,784	6%	16.6	31,670
2024/25	95,955	3%	20.1	19,286
2025/26	54,518	2%	22.5	12,266
2026/27	44,023	2%	25.9	11,402
Total	545,267			90,623

5 The total is indicative as each project will have its own unique inflation indices, risk allowances and impact on procurement.

6 To add a further £90m funded by increased borrowing into the capital programme is currently unaffordable as would add an indicative £6m to the council’s revenue budget at a time where the revenue budget is under strain.

7 The capital programme has been further analysed to determine the recommended approach for dealing with increasing costs. This is shown below by type of expenditure

Major Schemes

8 Examples York Outer Ring Road, York Station Frontage, Haxby Station, HRA New Build Schemes. These schemes are funded either partly or fully by external funders. The schemes are all subject to different decision points around scope and breadth of delivery. It is proposed that the council continues to work with funders and revise scope of projects within budgets and funding available. These will be reported through to Executive and recommendations made at key decision points.

Rolling Programmes 

9 Examples Highway Schemes, Asset Maintenance, Local Transport Plan, City Walls, Drainage Schemes, School Basic Needs, Maintenance, Housing Maintenance Schemes. These programme lines deliver a large number of schemes within the budget allocations. Whilst the individual schemes increase in cost it will not necessarily be able to deliver the whole programme within budget levels. It is proposed that the programmes are flexed to deliver schemes within the budgets available. Overall, the number of schemes delivered will be lower than had there been lower inflation levels.

Fleet Replacement

10 Eg Waste Vehicles, Replacement Vehicle & Plant. There is a fleet replacement programme and as costs increase it is not always possible to reduce the number of vehicles that are being replaced. Where costs have exceeded budget these will have to be considered as part of the annual budget process.

Other Named Schemes

11 There are a large number of schemes within the capital programme that have been agreed over a number of budget cycles. Some will be able to progress and be completed within the budget that has been allocated whereas others may not be able to deliver what was originally planned. Where additional funding is required to deliver named schemes it is assumed that this can be achieved by reducing or deleting budgets from schemes that are no longer likely to be delivered within the medium term. This will require some form of reprioritsation however there is a recognition that not all schemes will be able to be delivered within the overall programme. This will be subject to Executive decisions as part of the quarterly monitoring process and or budget process.

12 In all circumstances Members will have the opportunity to determine new capital budgets as part of the annual budget cycle subject to available funding.

UK Shared Prosperity Fund

13 The council has been awarded an indicative £5,107k funding from the UK Shared Prosperity Fund to support the Levelling Up agenda across the country. Of this sum £900k is set aside for capital investment across the authority. There was also a further £400k set aside as part of the Rural Prosperity Fund. A report to Executive Member for Finance and Major Projects detailed the proposals for the funding and it is recommended that these are incorporated into the capital programme as follows

	2022/23 £’000	2023/24 £’000	2024/25 £’000	Total £’000
Improvements to City Centre & High Streets (UKSPF)	64	161	375	600
Enterprise Infrastructure (UKSPF)	-	-	300	300
Rural Prosperity Fund	-	100	300	400
Total	64	261	975	1,300

14 In 2022/23 CYC will prioritise spend on activities related to improving the city centre and Acomb Front Street in the current year. It is proposed that this will include city centre access work (including dropped kerbs and broader access studies), Acomb Front Street (replacing bollards, redoing signage and improvements to ACO drainage and pavements, improving the external appearance of public toilets). The capital budget of £64k will fund the cost of works that are deemed to be of capital nature.

15 Funds for the current year will be released once the Investment Plan has been agreed, which is expected to be in November or December 2022. Government have made it clear that any funding spent prior to that is undertaken at risk, although spend from April 2022 onwards will be deemed eligible once approval is given.

Recommendations

16 Executive is asked to:

· Recommend to Full Council the adjustments resulting in a decrease in the 2022/23 budget of £38.193m as detailed in the report and contained in Annex A.

· Note the 2022/23 revised budget of £154.557m as set out in paragraph 6 and Table 1.

· Note the restated capital programme for 2022/23 – 2026/27 as set out at paragraph 60 table 2. Reason: to enable the effective management and monitoring of the Council’s capital programme.

· Note the proposed mechanism for dealing with inflationary increases in the programme as set out in paragraphs 3 – 15.

· Introduce the schemes fully funded by UK Shared Prosperity Fund and Ruarla Prosperity Fund of £1.3m into the capital programme subject to funding allocation being confirmed. Reason: To enable the effective management and monitoring of the Council’s capital programme.

Consultation

17 The capital programme was developed under the capital budget process and agreed by Council on 7 February 2022. Whilst the capital programme as a whole is not consulted on, the individual scheme proposals and associated capital receipt sales do follow a consultation process with local Councillors and residents in the locality of the individual schemes.

Summary of Key Issues

18 A decrease of £38.193m is detailed in this monitor resulting in a revised capital programme for 2022/23 of £154.557m. There is an increase of £6.094m and a re-profiling of budgets to future years totalling £44.287m.  This is mainly due to Local Authority homes new build expenditure being delayed until 2026/27, re-profiling of Basic need, Improvement of facilities for pupils with SEND, ZEBRA and Castle Gateway spend into the following year.

19 Table 1 outlines the variances reported against each portfolio area and a summary of the key exceptions and implications on the capital programme are highlighted in the paragraphs that follow.

Table 1 Capital Programme Forecast Outturn 2022/23

Analysis

Children and Education Services

20 The total approved budget within the Children’s Services and Education Capital Programme for 2022/23 is currently £30.986m. A number of updates are included in this monitor following announcements from the Department for Education

21 The current approved budget for the main Basic Need scheme in the programme is £10,752k.  However this includes two schemes at Manor and Millthorpe Schools which are of such a size that these are to be reflected by reporting separately in the programme (Executive 14^th October 2021).

22 The scheme at Manor School for the provision of additional teaching accommodation and additional circulation and dining space was approved at an estimated cost of £1.1m.  This scheme has been redesigned to be deliverable within the budget allocated following inflationary increases in materials and labour costs, exacerbated by material shortages.  The scheme should still deliver the main objectives set out in the original report and is due to be completed in mid-November 2022.

23 The scheme at Millthorpe School was also developed to provide additional teaching and circulation space at a budgeted cost of £1.9m. As with the Manor scheme, significant redesigns were needed to enable delivery within the allocated budget.  However, a further £50k is required to enable the required outcomes, for which an amount of section 106 has been identified to be added to the scheme budget.  The revised scheme is expected to be complete by the end of October 2022.

24 Both of these schemes were approved at their original level as fully funded from Basic Need, although in the case of the Manor scheme the ultimate funding source for the majority of the spend will be Section 106 receipts from the Former Civil Service Site Housing Development, which are anticipated to be in the region of £0.9m.

25 As no further new work is expected to commence in 2022/23 from Basic Need it is proposed to re-profile £7.3m of this into 2023/24.  This leaves an amount of £0.72m in the main Basic Need budget for the remainder of this financial year, to deal with any additional urgent requirements before the year-end, for example if additional resources are required to supplement the SEND Expansion of Facilities scheme as a result of the Inclusion Review

26 The new build at Fulford School is progressing well with the ground floor substantially in place and work on the first floor in progress.  Over the summer, re-modelling works to some existing classrooms, corridors, stairways and lift installation have been carried out, with the majority of this completed in time for hand-back to the school for the beginning of the new academic year.

27 The major scheme at Danesgate to make significant adaptations and re-modelling to improve the layout of the buildings for young people with Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs has been carried out over the summer.  The main scheme is expected to be delivered within the overall budget allocated of £1.9m.  However, an urgent need was identified late on in the development of the project to bring catering in-house due to issues with having meals brought in.  This meant that a catering kitchen had to be urgently created on-site.  This has been funded by an additional allocation from the SEND Capital Improvements grant scheme, funded by the SEND capital grant.  A virement of £245k is therefore required between these two schemes in the programme. 

28 A number of schemes have been carried out over the summer of 2022 within the School Condition and Maintenance programme.  Schemes carried out are summarised in the following paragraphs.

29 A significant programme of work has been carried out at Clifton Green Primary, including a third phase of roofing replacement and pipework.  The work was completed in time for the start of the new school year.

30 A major scheme of roof work and boiler and flue replacement at Yearsley Grove Primary School is now complete.  Another large scheme of roof work and kitchen refurbishment is nearing completion at Elvington Primary School and roof works at Westfield Primary have been completed.

31 Smaller schemes were carried out at Dringhouses Primary (door and window renovations) Headlands Primary (second phase of roofing works) 

32 As most schemes are now complete or nearing completion there is likely to be an overall underspend on the maintenance programme.  It is therefore proposed to re-profile the majority of this underspend into 2022/23 to add to the available funding for planning the 2023/24 programme.  Across the Condition and Maintenance scheme and the two LA funded Maintenance schemes in the programme a total of £1.2m is predicted to be available and recommended to be re-profiled into 2023/24.

33 A minor amendment (a £2k reduction) is required to the Devolved Formula Capital Scheme for 2022/23 to reflect the grant being slightly lower than budgeted.

34 Phase 2 of the Applefields School expansion has been carried out over the summer and completed in September at an estimated cost of approximately £280k.  As a result, there is a remaining amount of approximately £270k overall across Phases 1 and 2 which can be transferred back to the unallocated Basic Need scheme.

35 Further accessibility improvements have been carried out at All Saints School lower site.  The works in 2022/23 are estimated to cost £210k.   This leaves an amount of £90k to be reprofiled into 2022/23 for future planned accessibility improvements.

SEND Future Scheme proposals

36 A separate paper on this agenda set out plans for the use of £8m of SEND capital resources on five major schemes to improve provision in the city for children and young people with SEND.  The schemes that are being requested for approval are summarised briefly below.

37 St Paul’s Nursery – remodelling works to create an Early Years Hub centred around the existing Enhanced Resource Provision (ERP) - Budget £1.2m.

38 Expansion of Haxby Road Primary ERP on second site at Lakeside Primary (which is in the same Multi-Academy Trust as Haxby Road Primary – Ebor) – Budget £1.48m

39 Creation of a new secondary ERP at Huntington School to provide a facility for young people with autism with work to be phased over three years – Budget £1.81m

40 Further improvement work at Applefields School over three years to remodel classroom space, create additional space via infill works and upgrade the hydrotherapy pool– Budget £2.08m

41 A project to provide additional alternative provision for young people with Social, Emotional and Mental Health (SEMH) needs – Budget £1.43m.

42 It is likely that most of these schemes will be carried out during 2023/24, or in the case of the schemes at Huntington and Applefields phased over three years, therefore it is proposed that £7.52m of the existing SEND scheme in 2022/23 be reprofiled into 2023/24 and the two following years and then used to fund each of these new schemes which will be monitored at separate scheme level within the programme.  The only exception to this is the scheme at Lakeside Primary which may have an earlier start date, so an amount of this budget will be retained in 2022/23 at this point

43 School maintenance schemes for 2023/24 are currently being planned.  At this stage the Directorate is working within an overall funding amount of approximately £6m, based on an assumption of the 2023/24 Condition and Maintenance allocation from the DfE and the available underspend from 2021/22 reported above plus use of relevant section 106 receipts.

44 It is possible that some new emerging issues may be deemed a higher priority as part of this planning round and permission is sought for officers to have delegated authority (in consultation with the Executive Member for Children and Young People) to substitute new schemes where this is felt to be required.  All decisions will be made based on being affordable within the overall funding available

Housing & Community Safety

45 The major repairs and modernisation budget is £9,190k for 2022/22, an overview of the larger schemes are detailed below.

46 Tenants Choice Programme- Budget £2,660k - This programme of work includes replacement bathrooms, kitchens and electrical rewires.  orks so far this year have focused upon completing properties in the Chapelfields, St Stephens Road, Cornlands Road and Nunnery Lane areas. This autumn it is planned work on the modernisation of homes in the Dringhouses area, following the holding of the successful Tenants Choice Exhibition in July, with works profiled over the next 24 to 30 months.  This autumn the service will also begin the procurement of contractors to carry out the works from 2023/24 to 2027/28.  Approximately 300 homes will be modernised this year.

47 Standing Water Programme. Budget £1,500k – This programme of works focuses on homes with significant rising damp.  The replacement of solid and suspended ground floors means that when the works are undertaken the tenant has to move out and this, inevitably, complicates works and progress.  24 properties have been completed to date this year or will shortly be completed. The service plans to carry out a works to a further 12 homes this winter/spring taking a “worst first” approach to the scheduling of properties, also being mindful of the priority we give to vulnerable tenants.  With this in mind, there are properties requiring rising and penetrating works in future years and, following a review of approach and taking into account the recommendations in a recent national report from the Housing Ombudsman, a contractor will be procured to continue to deliver this programme of works for 2023/24 and beyond.

48 Heating Installations. Budget £1,003k – A safe and efficient heating boiler has, for many years, been a priority for the service and, given increased awareness of the cost of heating, this programme remains a priority.  We aim to provide 440 households with new gas central heating systems this year which included SMART controls and a 5 year manufacturer’s warranty.  At the same time, and also as part of our annual gas safety check, we have installed Carbon Monoxide detectors in all gas-heated homes.

49 Voids Budget £1,216k –This budget is used to undertake major works in void properties prior to re-let, refitting new kitchens, bathrooms and undertaking rewires on those properties that have had tenants choice work declined by the previous occupant, mainly due to ill health or where they do not want the upheaval.  During this year we expect to carry out capital works to approximately 50 empty homes.

50 Chapelfields & Bell Farm Window Replacement.  Budget £775k – This 2 year programme of works began last year in the Chapelfields area and, for this community, will conclude with works to approximately 50 homes in the current financial year.  We will procure a contractor this winter and begin works in Bell Farm in the new year.  Works to approximately 100 homes in Bell Farm will progress through the remainder of 2022/23 with the remainder completed in 2023/24.

51 As highlighted above, several key contracts will be procured this winter as existing arrangements come to an end.  There is a risk that costs will rise significantly as part of this process and while we will seek to manage this via the competitive process we will report any impact upon the quantity or value of works at the earliest opportunity

52 Lowfield Green continues to progress well on site with all 88 homes in phases 1 to 4 now occupied. The next phase of homes are due for completion in December 2022 with the site fully complete by Spring 2023.

53 Caddick Construction Ltd have been appointed as main contractor for the Duncombe Barracks and Burnholme developments. Duncombe Barracks started on site on 11th July 2022. Demolition work is now complete with work now progressing on the substructures. Homes England approved a bid to deliver an additional 20% shared ownership homes on the site bringing the overall percentage of affordable housing to 60%. A start on site claim has been submitted and 75% of the grant has been paid to the Council in September.

54 At Burnholme The start on site date is scheduled for November 2022. Homes England approved a bid to deliver an additional 20% shared ownership homes on the site bringing the overall percentage of affordable housing to 60%.

55 Within the Shared Ownership scheme, York has been granted £1,999k as part of the Devolution Deal, to contribute towards the purchase of 25 shared ownership homes. The overall scheme requires a CYC contribution of £2,126k which can be funded from Housing Capital Receipts. The scheme will produce a revenue stream for the HRA as the tenants pay a “rent” to cover the equity that the council retains.

56 The LA Homes New build project budget was created as part of the wider Housing Delivery Programme agreed in 2018. It is proposed to reprofile this budget specifically slipping the £12.4m budget in 2022/23 to 2026/27. Following revised assumptions around the new build schemes at Duncombe Barracks and Burnholme, this budget needs to be revised down as much of the expenditure is funded from assumed market sale receipts which are now assumed to be lower than when the budget was created. This will be done as part of a future update to Executive around the Housing Delivery Programme.

Transport, Highways & Environment

57 The contract for the installation of the hostile vehicle mitigation measures in the city centre has been tendered and a contractor has been appointed. The main works are programmed to start in January 2023, with completion in spring 2023 (depending on the timescales for utility diversion works). Additional funding of £1,750k was approved at the 18 August 2022 Executive meeting. This funding has been reallocated from the 2026/27 Highways capital budgets

58 Within the Local Transport Plan (LTP) there is funding allocated for the purchase of two new buses for the Dial & Ride service but due to the long lead-in time for the purchase of the new buses, this funding will not be fully spent in 2022/23 and £130k will be carried forward to 2023/24

59 The council was awarded £8.4m from the government’s Zero Emission Bus Regional Area (ZEBRA) fund to support the purchase of 44 fully electric buses, and has been working with bus operators to progress this scheme. Due to the timescales for the purchase of the new buses £5m of funding will be carried forward to 2023/24, as the payments will be made over two years

60 The Castle Gateway Transport Improvements scheme aims to improve transport infrastructure in the area of the Castle Gateway development, and the timescales for any proposed schemes are dependent on the wider development proposals. This work is not expected to be delivered in 2022/23 therefore the majority of the funding will be carried forward to 2023/24

61 Following a review of the expected works and costs, it is proposed to carry forward £1,043k of the York Station Gateway scheme to 2023/24 due to lower expected costs in 2022/23. The utility diversion works have started on site, and the highways works are expected to begin in spring 2023, with completion currently programmed for autumn 2025

62 Following the completion of the new strategic traffic model and the real-time traffic model in 2021/22, work on the Smarter Travel Evolution Programme is ongoing, with the Green Light Optimised Speed Advisory (GLOSA) and data platform projects progressing as planned. It is proposed to carry forward £320k of the grant funding to 2023/24 to fund the anticipated costs of the data platform in future years

63 Funding is allocated for measures to improve the existing road closure at Victoria Bar. However, following requests to extend the scope of the scheme to review the wider area, and the need to consider the proposals to reduce levels of car usage in the city centre, this work is on hold. It is proposed to carry forward the funding to 2023/24 to allow a scheme to be developed that could incorporate all of these proposals and include the wider aims of the council’s fourth Local Transport Plan

64 The Lendal Bridge capital scheme will not progress in 2022/23 therefore this funding will be carried forward to 2023/24 to enable the scheme to progress in future years

65 The Castle Mills lock gate repairs scheme will now primarily be delivered in 2023/24

66 The council has been successful in the Government’s Flood and Coastal Resilience Innovation Programme as reported to Executive on the 28th July 2022. This adjustment allows the inclusion of the funding awarded within the council capital programme

67 There are no schemes anticipated for 2022/23 within the Community Asset Transfer therefore this funding will be carried forward to 2023/24

ICT

68 The revised capital budget for ICT is £4,095k in 2022/23.  At Monitor 2 the forecast is that £945k will be slipped back into  23/24. As identified at Monitor 1, the main area of spend is the refresh in infrastructure technology as part of the new Managed Service contract with North.

69 Key elements that are being replaced or developed with North are:

1. The Council Wifi

2. The Wide area Network edge equipment

3. Network Datacentre Switches

4. The integration of Mitel Telephony with Microsoft Teams

70 Industry wide supply chain issues have led to significant delays in the planned delivery of some of this new technology, particularly items 2, 3 and 4 listed above. Schemes that have been or are on target to be delivered in 2022/23 are:

· Continued roll out of Microsoft 365 and associated back up technology

· Replacement of Infrastructure cyber security systems

· Replacement of the current remote connectivity platform relating to hybrid working

· Extension of the Financial Management System, Authority Financials.

· Replacement of the corporate print solution from Gandlake to PresConnect

· YOTTA Highways Asset Management system procurement

· Replacement of the Electronic Data and Records Management System

· The annual laptop refresh programme

Communities & Culture

71 The Future Library Investment Programme (FLIP) is progressing well, with the first of the three capital projects to create a new Gateway library for Haxby & Wigginton nearing build completion. The cost for the first phase at Haxby & Wigginton has been higher due to inflationary pressures but this has been managed within the overall FLIP budget, using part of the £0.5m contingency. The second phase, Clifton Library Learning Centre has received planning determination and therefore construction tendering has now commenced. There is a cost inflation risk to the overall programme that has been seen at phase 1 and unless market conditions change could provide additional cost pressure for phase 2 (Clifton Library) and phase 3 (Acomb Library)

Summary

72 As a result of the changes highlighted above the revised 5 year capital programme is summarised in Table 2

Funding the 2022/23 – 2026/27 Capital Programme

73 The revised 2022/23 capital programme of £546.567m is funded from £204.967m of external funding and £341.600m of internal funding.  Table 3 shows the projected call on resources going forward.

	2022/23 £m	2023/24 £m	2024/25 £m	2025/26 £m	2026/27 £m	Total £m
Gross Capital Programme	154.557	193.959	98.530	55.498	44.023	546.567
Funded by:
External Funding	61.483	81.113	41.069	12.575	8.727	204.967
Council  Controlled  Resources	93.074	112.846	57.461	42.923	35.296	341.600
Total  Funding	154.557	193.959	98.530	55.498	44.023	546.567

Table 3 – 2022/23 –2026/27 Capital Programme Financing

74 The Council controlled figure is comprised of a number of resources that the Council has ultimate control over.  These include Right to Buy receipts, revenue contributions, supported (government awarded) borrowing, prudential (Council funded) borrowing, reserves (including Venture Fund) and capital receipts

75 In financing the overall capital programme the Chief Finance Officer will use the optimum mix of funding sources available to achieve the best financial position for the Council. Therefore an option for any new capital receipts would be to use these to replace assumed borrowing, thereby reducing the Councils’ borrowing levels and associated revenue costs.
