Minutes:

The Committee received the report of Mark Evison, Park Manager, informing of the planning application for the extension to the secondary deer enclosure.  Mr Evison stated that the Chief Financial Officer had noted the report with no additional comments and invited the Committee’s comments.

 

Caroline Hayter (Alexandra Residents Association) expressed concern that the extension would take space away from public use.  In response Mr Evison stated that the small extension, fitted into the area and would benefit the wellbeing of the deer.  This particular area was not in active use by the public.  Mr Aspden commented that he had taken part in the site-visit, to which all interested groups had been, invited and advised his support of the proposal. The area of the proposed extension was small and currently inaccessible.

 

The Committee was given assurance that the mature oak trees in the proposed extension would not be damaged.

 

RESOLVED

 

That the Board be asked to note that the majority of the Committee supported the proposal for the extension of the secondary deer enclosure (with the exception of Ms Hayter).
