Issue - meetings

Report CSD15020

Two petitions had been received asking the Council to (i) keep the Bromley Museum at the Priory in Orpington with its collection intact and (ii) not sell the Priory building. Both petitions were above the threshold that allowed the lead petitioner to address the Council, but in view of the recent decision by the Executive both petitioners had decided to defer their right to speak.

A third petition that met the threshold for consideration at Council had been received opposing the closure of the public toilets in Beckenham High Street. Ruth Fabricant addressed the meeting in support of the petition.    

A motion to take no further action on the petition was moved by Councillor Colin Smith and seconded by Councillor William Huntington-Thresher and CARRIED.
