Agenda item

To receive and consider the report of the Operations Manager.

The Committee received the report of the Operations Manager regarding the relocation of the memorial tree at Windrush Cemetery.

Members understood the need for the location of any memorial to be accessible to all and that the memorial should be of a respectable standard to reflect it significance. A Member spoke of how impressed they were of the memorial installed at the Tiny Forest by Earthwatch and asked that Officers consider a similar installation.

Recommended:

1.      That, the report be noted and,

2.      That, a new location be sought in the Cemetery for the installation of a memorial tree and,

3.      That, Officers explore options for a replacement memorial and,

4.      That, the costs for replacement plaques where necessary be borne by the council.
