Decision details

(1)  The retirement and requests for re-standings, set out more specifically at paragraph 3.3 of Report ES13040, be approved.

(2)  The new nominees within paragraph 3.3 of Report ES13040 be approved.

(3)  The Conservators Annual Report for 2012 (Appendix A to Report ES13040) be received and noted.

(4)  The Board of Conservators be authorised to appoint for the current vacancy referred to at paragraph 3.5 of Report ES13040, and for future vacancies, when a suitable candidate volunteers – reporting such details via the annual nominations report.

The above decision approves the re-appointment of two nominees to the Board of the Chislehurst and St Paul’s Cray Commons Conservators following expiry of their term of office during April 2013.

A vacancy had also been carried by the Conservators from 2011 and a further vacancy had been created following a retirement/resignation. Accordingly, Report ES13040 outlines the Trustees appointed by the Board since the previous nominations report.

A member of the Board also unexpectedly retired early during 2012, and with no additional nominations, the Board of Conservators is given authority to appoint a suitable new member in due course, should a volunteer with the necessary skills and attributes present themselves. This will need to be ratified via the next annual nominations report during 2014.

The above Decision also gives authority to the Board of Conservators to appoint for any future vacancies, provided details are reported to Members via the annual nominations report.

The Conservators Annual Report for 2012 is also noted.
