Is Key decision?: No

Is subject to call in?: No

Decision:

Acceptance of the £27,500 grant awarded by Keep Britain Tidy to tackle chewing gum.

Reasons for the decision:

Accepting the grant of £27,500 awarded to NYC towards resources and equipment is considered an opportunity for NYC to purchase additional equipment to tackle chewing gum and enhance the street cleaning service across the area, as there is no funding for this within existing budgets.

Alternative options considered:

Not accepting this grant would mean the additional resources and equipment could not be purchased.
