Members received and considered the report of the Venue Manager offering an update on the phase two refurbishment of the Corn Exchange.

 

The Committee was briefed on the progress of the café/bar and was asked to consider updated quotes for furniture and possible decoration; the installation of retractable seating in the Main Hall was also discussed. The seating could require possible building alterations so the Operations & Estates Officer should be consulted on its feasibility. The possibility of installing a sprung floor in the Main Hall to attract performers before seating was installed was also mooted.
