To receive and consider the report of the Town Clerk/CEO

Report to Follow

The Committee received and considered the report of the Deputy Town Clerk outlining a Witney Allotment Association request for the Council to pay for the installation of three sheds at the Newlands Allotment site.

Members were unanimous in agreement that the sheds should be replaced at a cost to the Council as the reason for their removal was in order for the Council to install additional fencing to future proof the security of the site.

The Committee thought the budget specified by the Allotment Association was prudent and therefore agreed a budget of £1,000 from the allotments earmarked reserve and that the purchase of the units required be delegated to Officers.

Recommended:

1. That, the report be noted and,
2. That, three new replacement sheds be purchased for the Newland Allotment site utilising a £1,000 budget and,
3. That this be delegated to officer to finalise.
