Agenda item

To note the consultation results of the North Cross Road Market.

A report on the North Cross Road market consultation was carried out in October 2010 to ascertain the views of the local community, traders, and businesses on extending the current Market from 20 to 30 pitches, and adding Sunday as an extra trading day. An advert was placed in the press in September 2010 to advise of the consultation, and questionnaires were distributed to residents in the streets around the market. The questionnaire was also put up online.

The consultation results came out in favour of both questions agreeing to add 10 pitches to the existing 20 and to add Sunday trading to the existing designation of Monday to Saturday.

Members noted the report.
