A very well attended meeting last night (Tuesday) – the agaenda having being posted up here previously.
17 interested parties/group members joined in an update from Chair Robin Sutton and myself having had a meeting with Mr Phil Hughes (Director of Leisure @ FDC).
We spoke and discussed the possibility of a ‘Grafitti Wall’ and its implications.
At the request of Mr Geoff Howes, I had investigates the costs and practicalities of an
‘All Weather Fun Run Track’ my costing were based on 1 Km however GH informs me it is 1.5 Km – on my investigation, there was criteria about ‘footfall’ and the numbers within a community to justify the costs (in the region of £250,000 to £500,000 @ 1 Km).
FDC had investigated and were not supporting the idea.
I presented an update on the ‘Heritage Centre’ being now in permanant suspension.
(More in todays report – Projects Meeting).
Update on the refurbishment of the Netball/Tennis Courts, in that the funding was in place and ‘tenders’ were being finalised. New Lighting, Fencing and Re-furbished play area.
The idea of new Fishing Pegs I informed the group that I would seek funding for the project.
