Agenda item

To receive and consider the report of the Operations Manager.

The Committee received the report of the Operations Manager following a request from Holy Trinity Church at Woodgreen to carry out repairs to the metal arch and stone pillars.

Members agreed that as the Council has a legal obligation to maintain the closed churchyard then a discussion on an increase in budget was not required.

Members agreed to recommend the increase in budget to be agreed by the Policy, Governance & Finance Committee on 20 November 2023.

Recommended:

1.      That, the report be noted and,

2.      That, an increase to the Close Churchyard maintenance budget 4036/303 be increased by £5,000 to £16,000 in the 2024/25 financial year.
