To consider a report of the Corporate Director for Place Management and Regeneration

The report sets out an application from the Big Kids Circus to hold its event (a non-animal) circus) in Woodbank Memorial Park between 23 – 27 September 2020.

The application had been deferred at the meeting of the Area Committee held on 12 March 2020 in order to enable a consultative meeting to take place between residents, the organisers of the event and Ward Councillors to discuss residents’ concerns about noise and the amount of fly posting in the area which would advertise the event.

The Area Committee is recommended to approve the application.
