A report was submitted to request that Cabinet grant a waiver to Standing Orders to allow the use of a proprietary drainage system for the implementation of a drainage scheme for two football pitches at Wolstanton Marsh and to seek approval to utilise funding secured from a Section 106 Agreement to implement the drainage scheme to the pitch for which funding is currently unallocated.

It was confirmed that no other tenders had been sought as no other contractors carried out this service.
