To consider the head of community services’ report. 

Cabinet considered the head of community services’ report.  This proposed refurbishing the dry side toilets at Thame Leisure Centre. 

The implications of not undertaking these works were noted: namely that the facilities would continue to deteriorate with a resulting loss of customer dissatisfaction and potential loss of income from the centre from reduced usage. 

Cabinet welcomed the news that use of the centre was increasing, following works to the swimming pool last year.  Cabinet supported the proposed refurbishments to the dry side toilets as this should further increase customer satisfaction. 

RESOLVED: to authorise the head of community services, in consultation with the Cabinet member for community services, to procure and award a contract for the refurbishment of the dry side toilets at Thame Leisure Centre to a contractor selected through the council’s procurement process, subject to the tendered sum being within the approved budget of £54,560 and the works complying with the required specification.
