Councillor Warwick introduced the Report and the Head of Landscape and Open spaces gave a presentation to Cabinet.
At the invitation of the Chairman, Councillor Porter addressed Cabinet as summarised below.
Cabinet members welcomed the Strategy and noted that it accorded with the Council’s wider Health and Well-being Strategy. The Strategy aspired to the future use of pitches and facilities (as well as existing) and therefore the ambitions of local sports clubs had been sought. As a consequence of this work and particularly from engaging with the ‘Winchester Flyers’ woman’s football team, the Garrison Ground was to benefit from various improvements including to drainage and ancillary facilities.
Cabinet agreed to the following for the reasons set out above and outlined in the Report.
RESOLVED:
1. That the Winchester District Playing Pitch Strategy and Action Plan 2031 to 2031 be adopted.
2. That the Head of Landscape and Open Spaces in consultation with the Portfolio Holder for Environment be authorised to make any incidental textual amendment’s or corrections before publication.
