20/48 :Shipping Container

No ground rent has been received yet for the container and it hasn’t been moved or painted. It is also causing an unforeseen problem as a group of youths have been gathering behind it, damaging the fencing and using it as a “hidden” entry point to the garden. This week the motorbike trainers reported that they had doused a fire the boys had set behind it.
We ask that it is moved and painted before the next Board Meeting or we will have to organise its removal. The damage to the car park also needs to be repaired.
