A representative of the Strategic Head of Service (Legal & Democratic Governance and Monitoring Officer) submitted a report of the Director of Place Management (copies of which had been circulated) detailing a Local Initiative scheme proposal to provide a replacement bench at Offerton Green, Marple Road, Offerton.

It was commented that residents had contacted the Chair about the state of disrepair of the bench, which was located on a steep incline and therefore used often by residents.

RESOLVED – That approval be given to the replacement of the bench at Offerton Green, Marple Road, Offerton at a cost of £1,200 (£600 to be funded from this Area Committee’s Delegated Budget (Offerton Ward Allocation) with the remainder of the balance to be funded from the Greenspace budget).
