Considerations

Look Out Café need to be consulted on food concessions. Leaflet drop required by Event Organiser to residents. Grass can be affected by the usage. Events will be spaced out with two/three weeks in between enabling the surface to recover.  If it is a wet season, an event organiser maybe given two weeks’ notice from TDC that they will not be able to use the site. Therefore event organisers will need to have a contingency plan for relocating their event in the circumstance of adverse conditions.
