Issue - meetings

The Events Officer introduced the report and gave a brief update. Discussion points were as follows:

·       It was noted that the Student Union event was run well and that there was better traffic management in place this year. There were complaints but nothing additional since the event took place.

·       It was noted that the number of noise complaints for music festivals depended on the wind direction on the day of the event.

·       Members noted that there were cars parked on the grass on Ladies Mile during the event and it was confirmed that this was a designated taxi pick up area.

·       Members raised the issue around parking on the grass generally and noted that once the financial position changes, the Committee could look at employing someone to enforce restrictions.
