Consultation for a Loan

 

4.1

Councillor Jackson gave the reasoning that a loan of £20,000 was for the building of a brick-built storage unit to replace the unsightly and aging portacabins.  Currently the Playing field fundraisers have raised 50% of the money towards the build. It was explained that the current fund-raising events from the Playing field fundraising team should be sufficient to cover the loan over the 5-year period.  Only in extreme circumstances would it be necessary to raise the precept.

4.2

After discussion, Councillors concluded and agreed unanimously that the loan was necessary.
