Report of the City Surveyor.

The Committee received a report of the City Surveyor summarising the flooding incident that occurred on 31 October and 1 November at Guildhall which resulted in closure of the Guildhall Library.

In response to a Member’s suggestion, the City Surveyor undertook to examine the possibility of moving away from a system of automatic flushing at timed intervals to one that was user activated. It was suggested that this could alleviate the problem of out of hours flooding.
