To seek approval for opening hours for the
Council’s leisure facilities over the Christmas and New Year
holiday period 2018/19
That approval is given to the opening hours
for the Council’s leisure facilities over the Christmas and
New Year holiday period 2018/19 as set out in appendix 1 of this
report.
To allow for a reduced provision in customer
service at the Council’s leisure centres over the Christmas
and New Year period, compared to previous years.
To allow staff to take annual leave without the need to provide
cover.
The council could do nothing and continue to
open the leisure centres with the normal operating hours. This
option would mean a waste of resource in terms of heating, lighting
and staffing of the facilities for extremely low levels of customer
use.
Alternative opening hours to those contained in the proposal could
be considered. However the proposal takes into account previous
year’s usage levels and customer feedback of wanting to
access facilities from 7am until the evening.
