RESOLVED that –
(a) the contents of this report be noted;
(b) external funding streams continue to be pursued to install a piece of public art within the District as opportunities arise;
(c) if successful a more general piece of public art, rather than a Covid-19 memorial maybe more likely as the availability of external funding streams appear to be linked to economic growth and tourism;
(d) the Council’s general fund is not considered as the appropriate funding route for this project in light of current budgetary pressures; and
(e) theAnglefield, Clacton-on-Sea site be approved for the installation of a piece of public art, if future funding can be secured.
