MATTERS ARISING

Great Fire 350: Monitoring and Evaluation (page 4) – A Member clarified that she was seeking information as to how many permanent jobs had been created as a result of this project as opposed to full time jobs. The Committee were informed that, as per the update sent via the Town Clerk to all Members after their last meeting, the project had resulted in 55 part time and 2 full time jobs – all of these were temporary lasting from 6 weeks to a year.

Artizan Street Library and Community Centre (page 6) – Members requested an update on the unpleasant odour from the lavatories at this site which was discussed at the last meeting. The Chairman reported that this was, regrettably, yet to be resolved. The Committee were informed that the results of a survey conducted by United House were due tomorrow and that this was therefore still a work in progress. The Chairman stated that she had made her concerns around this and the need to address the matter as quickly as possible very clear. She had asked that she and the Deputy Chairman be provided with a full update on progress by the end of the week.
