Decision details

Before the Committee was a report by the Director for Housing and Communities, copies of which had been circulated to all Members and a copy of which is attached to the signed copy of these minutes as Item 10.

This report before members sought to approve the release of s106 contributions received from the development of land at Mash Barn Estate for the replacement of play equipment at Shadwells Road open space. The existing open space play equipment in Shadwells Road had been prioritised for upgrading and replacement by officers in the Parks & Foreshore team. Use of Mash Barn s106 in Shadwell Road directly benefited the nearest community and residencies for which the allocation was intended.
