Friends of Fishponds Park (FoFP) Verbal Update Report of Fof FP Chair, Brian Smith Minutes: The NP heard from Brian Smith, the Chair of Friends of Fishponds Park who informed them that a Committee and constitution had been formed. They had carried out consultation regarding the park and the biggest issue was the playing area which the Council confirmed was beyond its reasonable life. 94 % of those consulted were in favour of new play area. A design brief would be completed in 3 weeks which would be considered by the Environment Sub-Group and their comments would be brought to this NP at its December meeting. It was intended to remove the current equipment this financial year with the new installation in the next financial year. Avenues of funding were being considered such as National Lottery and application to Tesco. He asked the NP for any other ideas they might know of for fund raising.
With fund raising in mind, the Committee proposed to have a Glow in the dark event where a company specialising in light events illuminated the trees from 2 December to 2 January. This would cost up to £4000 but could not be funded by the wellbeing budget as an application had not been submitted in time.
Resolved – that the verbal update from Friends of Fishponds Park be noted.
