Decision details

The Committee received a verbal report from the Leader of the Council.  This item was a standing item on all committees.  The Open Spaces Strategy report would hopefully be completed in April 2021.

The Town Clerk reminded members that there were some items held in abeyance, including the transfer of the Woodgreen football fields (the Council was waiting for the District Council on this), The Leys irrigation using grey water, changing rooms at Burwell and Quarry Road play area and also putting money aside for the replacement of the Splash park.   

RESOLVED:          that the verbal report from the Leader be noted and the Committee confirms its priorities for 2021/22, 2022/23 and beyond with the Committee’s immediate/top priorities being:-

a)       Park Road Play Area – completing the legal work and aspiration to get the play area re-opened by Summer 2021;

b)      West Witney Sports Ground – to find a solution to providing changing rooms, toilets and other facilities – timescales dependant on FA Funding, but temporary solution required immediately;

c)       Skate Park – Ramp Up The Leys, community led fundraising;

d)      Open Spaces Strategy.
