The Committee considered a request to refurbish the older children’s play area in Lammas Park. The Deputy Group Head Neighbourhood Services confirmed Section 106 funding had been provided for the refurbishment.

The Committee noted the popularity of the current play area and queried how extensive the refurbishment would be. The Committee were assured that views from park users on the current play area had been sought, and only outdated equipment would be removed or replaced. The rest of the play area would be enhanced.
