62 Pond creation at Forstal Field PDF 67 KB
Minutes:
The
Leisure Manager introduced his report setting out details of a
proposal for Natural England to fund and create a new pond of
approximately 200 square metres on the Forstal Field. It was
noted that the new pond would improve the habitat and biodiversity
of the Cobtree Manor Park. It would also be used as a receptor site for Great
Crested Newts displaced by development in the Borough and
surrounding areas and this would provide additional income for the
Charity.
RESOLVED:
1. That agreement
be given to the creation of a new pond on Forstal Field.
2. That delegated
authority be given to the Head of Regeneration and Economic
Development in consultation with the Chairman of the Committee to
confirm the precise location of the pond when scale maps are
available.
