Scrutiny Considerations
The Committee received a report from the Development Manager who
reminded the committee that since report had been published, it had become
clear that one of the recommendations (to fund the Trumpington Recreation
Ground boundary landscaping proposal [S5]) using local S106 contributions) was
not ready for consideration and had been withdrawn for consideration.
Councillor Bird welcomed the recommendation for funding for the
Chesterton Rec Ground wheel-sport facility, the Five Trees open space:
wildflower and tree planting (East Chesterton), Pearl Close play area & open space improvements (East Chesterton)
and thanked officers for their hard work in bringing these schemes forward.
The Committee unanimously resolved to endorse the recommendation
as amended to allocate S106 funding to the following eight projects below,
subject to business case approval (see section 4 and
appendix A of the officers’ report for project details):
