Oakham Town Council Cosmetic Waste NEW BENCHES IN CUTTS CLOSE

Oakham Town Council  Announces in these times of hardship
NEW BENCHES IN CUTTS CLOSE

Six new benches will be installed adjacent to the Toddlers' Play Area in Cutts Close. 

The benches are cast iron with wooden slats. and will replace the concrete and wood benches currently sited there. 

It is anticipated that these will be installed in early March. 

The Council apologises in advance for any disruption this may cause, particularly as the old benches will need be removed prior to the new ones being installed. (an obvious observation and such a waste)

This may mean a lack of seating in that area of the park for a day or two. 

The installation of these is the start of the gradual replacement of all the old style concrete and wood benches in the park.



The cost of the benches and their installation is expected to be £4500.


(why expected cost why no quotes?) (Spend spend is the motto of Oakham Town Council) (I was pleased to see Cllr Lucas saw sense on Wednesday and did not vote for this waste, it must have been hard for her)
