Relates to new and improved recreation and public
open spaces facilities either funded by single
monetary contribution which City Council spend on
targeted projects (such as Owen’s Square landscape
improvements) or specifi c projects identified within
0.5 miles of site. Suggestions already made include
improved facilities at the Pickle Factory and Owen’s

with details to enable us to discuss this further with
the City Council.

lighting to cycle path; contributions to public transport
