DEPUTATIONS/PETITIONS: To consider receiving deputations and/or petitions in accordance with Standing Order 31.
A request for a deputation has been received from the Alexandra Park Club in relation to expansion of facilities.
Minutes:
A deputation was received from the Alexandra Park Club (APC) in which the Club gave a brief history of the club, and proposals to upgrade playing surfaces, ancillary facilities etc on the existing race course site and generally upgrading of the site. (The detailed proposals were TABLED – a copy of which would be interleaved within the minutes).
Following responses by the General Manager with regard to the practicalities and achievability of the scheme, and that a numbers of issues were required to be clarified prior to the planning application stage the Chair thanked the deputees for their presentation.
It was also noted by the Chair that as a number of the Members of the Board were also Members of the Local Authority’s Planning Committee, and confirmed that at the pointy of consideration of the applications by this Body then those Members would be required to declare an interest in the fact that they were Members of the Local Planning Authority and therefore would not be able to hear the application when it came before the Board.
The being no further questions the Chiar thanked the Group for their deputation.
