Minutes:

Members of the public were invited to put questions to the Chair on any matters within the powers and duties of the Area Committee, subject to the exclusions set out in the Code of Practice.

 

Two public questions were submitted as follows:-

 

·         Relating to difficulties being experienced by the local neighbourhood watch coordinator in securing a meeting room in the locality in the light of the availability of £200,000 of funding for safety measures for Stockport householders.

 

RESOLVED – That the Corporate Director for Place Management & Regeneration be requested to respond to the questioner in writing.

 

·         Relating to the provision of a new dog waste bin at the corner of Healdwood Road and Oxford Drive, Woodley.

 

In response, it was stated that the Council was pursuing a policy of reducing the number of bins that it provided, rather than seeking to introduce new ones and as such it was unlikely that it would be possible for a new bin to be provided at this location.  It was further commented that there may be scope for the relocation of an existing bin from elsewhere, and members would pursue this directly with the appropriate officers.
