Page 4 – APSC36

3^rd bullet point – delete ‘Lower Road’ and replace with ‘Alexandra Palace Way’

5^th bullet point – after the word ‘entrances’ add the words ‘ and particularly the foot entrance’

                        Matters arising         

(i)                 In response to points of clarification from Mr Aspden in relation to (APSC 36) 1^st bullet point – re LBH Highways discussions re entrance works Mr Holder and Mr Loudfoot advised that the works specification was currently under review but stressed that the land outside of the entrances was not the Palace’s land and the works were HLF works.  There had been a meeting with Highways Services as to the design and the scheme was currently being re-priced. Mr Loudfoot further advised of the items that had been deleted from the scheme such as the large planter and also some adjustment work.  It was hoped that a further report on the final design and scope of works would be brought to the next meeting of the Advisory Committee.  

(ii)               In response to clarification from Ms Hutchinson and other members as regards (APSC 36) 8^th bullet re the new Haringey Heartlands School and use of the Park space for recreation/sports Mr Holder advised that discussions would take place as to the wider use of the cricket club space.  The Board had given its support to the proposed usage but discussions would be further required between the LEA and Cricket Club as to the possible defined usage.  The usage outcome would need to be something mutually acceptable to all parties concerned.

(iii)              In response to points of clarification from Mr Aspden in relation to (APSC 38) – List of events at the palace Mr Holder advised that the circulated list of events would be updated at each meeting.  In respect of the point re traffic problems encountered on New Years Eve Mr Holder commented that the Board had considered the minute and was in agreement that the car parks should be opened. There were however cost implications that would require some quantification and reporting to the Board.
