To consider the prioritisation of work within the Committee’s Work Plan.

Minutes:

The Committee considered a report of the Head of Governance and Democratic Services which set out potential areas of work which might be appropriate for consideration at future meetings of the Committee.

The report invited the Committee to consider whether the work areas referred to in the report correctly represented those which it wished to pursue, and then to prioritise them.

RESOLVED

That the next meeting of the Committee should consider the following items as a priority:

  1. Presentation on allotments: this will concentrate upon the number location and take-up of allotments in the unparished area; how the existence of vacant allotments might be publicised; whether there are any mechanisms for allotments to be run locally; and whether there might be opportunities for allotment federations, in conjunction with the National Society of Allotments and Leisure Gardeners.

b.    Presentation on markets: this will address the following issues (ensuring that papers relating to the subject-matter are issued with the agenda):

                                          i.    How arrangements worked, and what issues arose, in respect of markets at Alsager, Sandbach and Nantwich;

                                        ii.    Budgetary matters (with finance officers in attendance);

                                       iii.    How the Macclesfield market might be promoted;

                                       iv.    How the market in the Grosvernor Centre operates and is managed.
