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

The report summarises the receipt of play and open space commuted sums received from developments in the Bramhall & Cheadle Hulme South Area Committee area or that must be used in the area, and makes recommendations about how these sums can be used.

The Area Committee is recommended to approve the use of the following sums:-

·         to allocate £669.24 from development no.1155 (DC 054447, 3 Nursery Road, Cheadle Hulme) towards future playground improvements at Heathbank Park.

·         to allocate £11,209.77 from development no.1167 (DC 051649, Hulme Hall, Hulme Hall Road, SK8 6LZ) towards future playground improvements at Heathbank Park.
