Alternative Options Considered:  NOTED, the alternative options considered as set out in section 5 of the report in relation to constraints on proposals and consultation.

DECISION:  The Cabinet agreed to approve:

2.    Delegation of authority to the Cabinet Member for Environment and Sustainability to make any changes necessary to the programme should there be any change to the allocation from Transport for London or for any other operational reason.

Reason:  To seek the necessary approvals that would enable Enfield’s Local Implementation Plan (LIP) funding proposals for 2020/21 to be submitted to Transport for London (TfL).
