    Herne Bay Gateway - temporary relocation of library services

    Subject:

    Gateway Services at Herne Bay Library

     

    Proposed decision:

    To agree to provide Gateway Services at Herne Bay Library and to relocate library services from Herne Bay Library to temporary premises during the refurbishment of the building.

     

    Financial Implications:

    During the closure period costs for the provision of temporary facilities will be kept to a minimum and any revenue costs should be offset by a reduction in user costs for the individual facilities.

    Relocating library services for Herne Bay will provide the contractor with an unfettered site which will reduce the time of the build and therefore lower capital costs.

    The temporary facilities will be stocked from existing library resources and there are no implications for the current staffing establishment

    Legal Implications:

    Kent County Council provides library and archive services under the Public Libraries and Museums Act 1964which requires the provision of a ’comprehensive and efficient’ library service.

    Equality Implications:

    An EQIA has been carried out and is available on the KCC website.

     

    Is the matter referred to in your Business Plan or Medium Term Capital Programme?

    Yes.
