This Council:

1. Notes the disappointment rightly felt by residents and campaign groups that restoration work on Madeira Terraces, one of the jewels in the crown of Brighton heritage, has yet again been delayed.

2. Acknowledges that postponing the work will lead to increased costs and put the restoration in jeopardy.

3. Apologises to residents and campaign groups for the delay.

4. Indicates its desire to commence work in Spring 2024, and to renovate all 151 arches.

Therefore, Council resolves to:

5. Request regular updates on funding sought for the complete restoration of Madeira Terraces, and regular updates to residents on progress.

6. Requests an Officer report setting out where the funding is held, how it is held, what interest it is gaining, and how secure it is.
