Minutes:
The Committee received a reference from the Performance, Governance and Audit Committee (PGA) to review the management processes associated with the Splash Park at Promenade Park, Maldon.
The Corporate Governance Project Officer gave some brief background to this and pointed out that the PGA had also asked for a separate report to be made to the Strategy and Resources Committee to consider the wider business model and commercial aspects of the operation of this facility.
Councillor K M H Lagan, an in-attendance Member, gave further information regarding the referral which related to the separate issue of the maintenance of the Splash Park, and why it had not been open earlier in the season as agreed. He expressed his keenness for this matter to be reviewed pending the separate issue of the operation of a District asset.
The Chairperson then proposed that the Committee accepts the reference from the PG&A Committee, which would then be picked up for consideration as to whether it should be added to the scrutiny workplan or a watching brief kept, and this was agreed
RESOLVED that the Committee accepts the reference from the Performance, Governance and Audit Committee.
