Decision details

A report which set out some of the representations received following one of the services Choices policies RAMS01I (Reduce/Stop Grass Cuts) was given consideration.  The report also sought approval to amend the previously adopted policy and to revert to cutting all areas previously maintained but at a reduced frequency that could be accommodated within the available budget.

The Head of Roads and Amenity Services advised that there was a typographical error in the recommendation of the submitted report.  He advised that it should reference paragraph 4.5 and not paragraph 4.8.
