Presented by Councillor Anna Williams-Price A historic version of the report had been published so a verbal update was provided to the last sentence at section 3.19.3 - 100 Band D equivalent properties for 2026/27 should read 60 Band D equivalent properties. As a result, the funding gap, which is referenced throughout the report, should be amended to read £5.619 million. The details of the changes and the correct figures will be published as part of a supplementary item to the agenda. Recommendation 2.3 and the requirement for delegated authority was removed; but would be considered for future reports.

Presented by Councillor David Jones In response to questions, Cabinet were advised: · The works for playgrounds referred to were scheduled to be completed this year and finalised designs would be brought to Ward Councillors. · There were no current delays. · In regard to the Pentrebach playground: - the recent installation of barrier had not had an impact on the delivery - no plans to install new fencing at the playing fields had been advised, but enquiries would be made for confirmation - the original design for an extended playground hadn’t changed - the community could use the football pitch when it wasn’t in use by the Red Lion.

The Chair advised that there was no other business deemed urgent.
Councillors must say when they have a personal link to something being discussed, such as a job, a property or a family member. A prejudicial interest is one strong enough that the councillor usually leaves the room and takes no part.
