Purpose: The S106 agreement allocating £348,800 to ‘the development of a new sports hall at Nether Stowe School’ linked to the housing development at Land North of Burton Road and Northeast of the West Coast Mainline, Streethay, Lichfield (12/00746/OUTMEI) was signed in December 2013.    The Sports Hall was constructed and opened in June 2021, funded by Staffordshire County Council.  The council therefore explored options to renegotiate the S106 clause to be able to allocate the funding towards another use.  As this was not possible the funding will be retrospectively allocated to Staffordshire County Council to finance the original project.
