Consultation process

Consultation took place in relation to the Cabinet papers, and all consulted were in support. Below is more detail as to that consultation process:

 

·         Contacting ward members and where they responded they were in support

·         Parish councils were consulted and where they responded they were in support

·         Friends of Groups were consulted and where they existed were in support

·         The council’s Asset Management Working Group was in support, with members keen to secure local traders

·         Two Cabinet papers which received unanimous support from Cabinet Members

·         Parks and green spaces were championing this offer and they also contacted local sports groups who were known to use the fields and where they responded about the kiosk opportunity, they were in support.

·         The opportunity was also advertised widely on social media and on our webpage

·         The S123 Notice was advertised in local papers for two consecutive weeks. 

 

Resulting from our consultation, the Council received over 800 responses from members of the public which were overwhelmingly in support (however these did tend to focus on the Hatherley opportunity).
