Report of the Director of Open Spaces.

The Committee received the report of the Director of Open Spaces summarising the performance against the 2015/16 – 2017/18 business plan. With regards to the Learning Programme, Members were informed that this was now being processed as a ‘green’ indicator as the City Bridge Trust funding application had been approved. Alternate sources of funding were also identified and submissions made but had yet to be realised. In response to a query, Officers agreed to include information regarding unsuccessful funding bids in the annual report for the Committee’s information.

Officers informed Members that the ten green flag awards and six heritage awards had been retained by the City.
