Agenda item

The Committee received and considered the report of the Operations and Estates Officer.  A request had been received from Witney Town Bowls Club for the Town Council to set a maintenance budget to keep the old bowls club in good structural repair.  It was no longer used and it seemed that the request had been made on more of an aesthetic basis, as the bowls club no longer used the building.

The Town Council had used the building for storage but it was not in a very accessible location.

Members discussed the request and decided that as the Council was currently having an asbestos survey carried out on this building, a decision should be made after the survey results were presented.  The Operations and Estates Officer expected this to be in quite quickly.

RESOLVED:          that the Council waits for the results of the asbestos survey before considering the request from Witney Town Bowls Club to repair the old bowls pavilion and any alternative options.
