MOTION NO. 15

MOTION: Councillor M. Johansson

That the Chief Executive look at rearranging the layout of the football nets on St Mark's Avenue as the current location of the net means that children have to run into the road to collect balls that miss the goal which is unsafe.

REPORT:

An inspection of the goal posts on the open space at St Marks Avenue will be carried out to determine the most appropriate way to reduce the incidences of footballs ending up on the road.  The options that will be considered include (a) moving one or both goal posts further back from the road (b) orientating the pitch to run perpendicular to its current position.  The inspection will be carried out in September.
