Minutes:

A representative of the Assistant Director – Legal & Democratic Governance (Monitoring Officer) submitted a report of the Director of Place Management (copies of which had been circulated) detailing an application received by the council from Morleys Funfair to hold a Family Funfair at Torkington Park on 29th June – 2nd July 2023.

 

Members commented that proactive engagement from the neighbourhood team with local residents would be useful as there had been concerns with the Funfair during previous events. It was noted that the end time had been brought forward and that the event was shorter than last year.

 

RESOLVED - That approval be given to an application from Morleys Funfair to hold a Family Funfair at Torkington Park on 29 June - 2 July 2023, subject to the organiser producing the appropriate health & safety documentation, insurances being in place and paying the fee.
