QUESTION: Councillor W. Carey

To ask the Chief Executive what role the council has in determining maintenance matters in council owned facilities such as swimming pools, libraries, theatres etc.

REPLY:

Council owned facilities such as swimming pools and the theatre referenced in the question are generally operated under a lease. The terms of the lease require the operator to carry out regular maintenance on the property. In respect of Council owned libraries which are managed by Council staff, their maintenance is the responsibility of the Council, with ongoing maintenance regimes in place.
