Report of the Leisure and Communities Team Manager

The report was presented by the Leisure and Communities Team Manager.

Following the presentation, a discussion was had regarding the need for dog bins and a bench for Western Avenue play area; to encourage cleanliness and footfall. Officers confirmed that general use bins were provided instead of dedicated dog bins. The requests were taken on board from the Chairman as part of a wider play area review.

Concerns were raised about the condition of a wall at the Coalville cemetery. It was explained by the Head of Property and Economic Regeneration that the wall movement was within expected range and was being monitored monthly by a building surveyor, with contingency funds available if its integrity became a risk.

A member wished to ensure thanks were given to the National Forest for their support with tree planting in Coalville. The Leisure and Communities Team manager agreed to look at options to action this.

The report was noted and members were thanked for their comments.
