£6m requested for repairs to Guernsey Dairy
BBCDeputies are being asked to sign off £6m of repairs to Guernsey Dairy, as well as £10.7m for a new gate for the Queen Elizabeth II Marina.
Policy and Resources (P&R) has also put forward 26 projects as part of its "pipeline" for future capital schemes.
Those include a new bus depot, redeveloping Beau Sejour, replacing the airport radar, upgrading the pharmacy at the hospital and new modular homes at the Coutanchez.
P&R has also proposed a new process for putting forward big projects, to try to smooth out the way things are delivered by the States.
The last States rejected plans to build a new dairy, despite officials warning it could end up costing more in the future to keep the current facility running.
The States' Trading Supervisory Board (STSB), which manages the government-owned dairy, previously described the current building as "no long fit for purpose".
Politicians will likely vote on the proposals in the major capital portfolio in April.
Other projects which have been included in the pipeline are:
- The States affordable housing programme
- Replacing Alderney's airport tower
- Upgrades to Alderney airport terminal
- A programme of work to upgrade anti-financial crime technology
- Updates to sterilising kit at the Princess Elizabeth Hospital
- IT refresh across the States
- Infrastructure upgrades to return businesses to Fontaine Vinery
- Plans to upgrade the harbour and build a pool marina
- Upgrades to Guernsey's air traffic control tower and equipment
- Repairs to Guernsey airport roof
- A programme to move the police station and upgrade the prison
- Upgrades to the States laboratory
- Power and environmental resilience upgrades
- Regeneration of the north
- New specialist accommodation for young people who pose a risk to themselves or others
