Minutes:

The joint report of the Director of Street Scene and Leisure and the Director of Finance and Transformation outlined the charging proposals in respect of Tonbridge Cemetery, Tonbridge Pitch Hire Charges and the Summer Playscheme.  Members were advised that the proposed charges took into account a range of factors including the Council's overall financial position, trading patterns and market position, the current rate of inflation, competing facilities and customer feedback.  Reference was made to the Council's Leisure Pass Scheme which enabled financially disadvantaged residents to participate in leisure activities at concessionary rates.

 

It was noted that proposed charges for facilities managed by Tonbridge and Malling Leisure Trust would be considered at the next meeting of the Advisory Board.

 

RECOMMENDED:  That

(1)            the proposed charges for Tonbridge Cemetery as detailed at Annex 2 to the report be agreed and implemented with effect from 1 April 2015;

(2)                pitch hire charges at Tonbridge Sportsgrounds be increased as outlined within the report for implementation from 1 April 2015; and

(3)                the proposed charges for the 2015 Summer Playscheme as detailed at Annex 3 to the report be approved.
