Issue - meetings

To receive the report of the Park Manager, Alexandra Palace, updating the Advisory Committee on events and works within the park.

The Committee noted the discussion held during the Joint SAC/CC meeting.

In addition to the proposal made by the Joint SAC/CC meeting, the SAC members felt that the level of damage to the Park following the Red Bull BMX event had not been taken fully into account and that any events in the future must only take place if assurances are made by Red Bull that all traces of the event would be removed quickly and completely.

The SAC supported the decision of the SAC/CC to support the updated proposals for the improvements to the cricket club grounds.

RESOLVED

i)          That the report be noted.

ii)         That the recommendation from the Statutory Advisory Committee to the Alexandra Palace and Park Board with regards to future Red Bull events be noted as follows:

The Statutory Advisory Committee and the Consultative Committee request that Red Bull remove or relocate the spoil to a suitable area, at Red Bull’s expense.  When considering future events, the Alexandra Palace and Park Board shall take into account the level of damage left behind by Red Bull at the last event and seek assurances that were an event take place again that all traces of the event would be removed quickly and completely.

iii)        That the Alexandra Palace and Park Board be notified of the Statutory Advisory Committee’s approval of the updated proposals for the water storage tank at the Cricket Club.

iv)        That the proposals for Dog Control Orders in the Park and the request for the Committee to respond to the consultation be noted.
