Issue - meetings

The District Executive gave consideration to a report which outlined the expenditure from the financial year 2016/17 and proposed budget commitments for 2017/18.  The District Executive were informed that the allocation for the room bookings would need to be amended to £450 and not the £250 as stated in the report.

Members raised the issue of the difficulty of buses turning in the sports centre car park taking children to swimming lessons and the improvement to safety.  The issue had been raised with Highways Officers and OCL.   Members requested the issue be investigated further and a report brought back to a future meeting.
