Report of the Director of Open Spaces.

The Committee received a report of the Director of Open Spaces which provided an update to the Members of the West Ham Park Committee on the management and operational activities at West Ham Park since February 2020. The Director of Open Spaces introduced the report and highlighted to the Committee the retention of the London in Bloom Competition gold award.

It was noted that further discussion of the Nursery Site project would need to take place in the non-public session due to its relation to financial matters.

The Committee discussed the factors causing an increased loss of trees at West Ham Park. The Director of Open Spaces replied by confirming that appropriate tree species and tree strategy would be investigated to minimise loss of tree numbers.

RESOLVED- That the report be noted.
