"That this Area Committee request the Chief Executive commits to immediately addressing the issue that has is now before us (see email below) and provide a report on costings for the project to date and the additional costs incurred since the withdrawal of the contract. Furthermore that options be provided to this committee and club members to ensure it’s swiftly remedied especially given the time of year where the parks footfall and activities are increased.

“Thanks for the call yesterday on the Track and the update.

To document my concerns, the club now needs immediate action so that we can secure back the use of the Track.

Our juveniles are currently in overcrowded rental spaces due to the absence of the Track. We have to split age groups up and reduce training times due to managing volumes. This was something we could support for the short period whilst the track project was in full flight but its not a risk we can continue to carry.

In terms of the track and your confirmation that all ground/drainage works were complete, can we move immediately to apply the tarmac under surface. This will make the track safe again and the club can use it, whilst you re tender for the remainder of works. The tarmac has to be done anyway, so there will be no anticipated additional costs as a result. Re-gritting the track will put cost back to us when it has to be stripped again when a new contractor steps in.

I can't stress enough the important of getting this tarmac surface done asap. We really find ourselves in an emergency situation here.
The sooner the Track can be brought back to the club, then I assume the risk on SDCC diminishes and the 24/7 security can go. Ideally if the grant for the fence came through, we should move with that too...and for a while have a fully secured tarmac Track.

The club is under increased financial pressure already to hire premises for longer periods than we thought. Our senior members are out in parks, on the road and not gravitating towards the club.

In essence the Track is not just about space, but its about safety and keeping all our younger members together in one location.
We are also running the risk of losing members, people and parents are no longer centering around the Track. Its looks derelict and forgotten about. For all concerned, we need to pull the Track back into the clubs use.

I'd appreciate your update on this next week as soon as you hear something. Thanks always for your support.”
