Following survey work undertaken on Christmas lights infrastructure it was identified that works would be required to take place to ensure compliance with relevant regulations. The cost of these works is £13,000.
As well as this, surveys were undertaken on the structural integrity of the Christmas tree pits at both Parkside offices and the town centre location. These surveys highlighted some health and safety issues so designs/works have had to be commissioned, at a cost of £1,100, to enable contractors to put in place the following solutions:
(1) A temporary solution requiring Kentledge (counterweight) in the
town centre due to time constraints (cost £12,900);
(2) A permanent solution for the provision of the Christmas Tree pit at
Parkside (cost £3,000)
