The Cabinet Member Finance introduced the report and highlighted that Leckhampton Rovers Football Club had grown considerably over the years.  The report sought Cabinet approval for a 21 year lease for the pavilion and pitch licence at Burrows Playing Field.

This represented an exciting green space project which would be of great value to the local community and beyond.
