Decision details
Public Toilet Provision
Decision Maker: Director of Place Management
Decision status: Approved
Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
Purpose:
Public toilet provision within BANES has been
impacted by the pandemic with the closure of public building
facilities, shops, cafes and other non-essential services. It is
proposed that the Ashton Way automatic public conveniences (APC) in
Keynsham are bought back into use.
Decision:
To fully approve capital contribution of
£12.5k to bring the APC in Ashton Way into use. This will be
funded by a contribution from the covid recovery grant.
Alternative options considered:
A review was undertaken to identify facilities
available in BANES for increased toilet provision. The proposed
reopening of the Ashton Way APC aligns with the Council’s
Manifesto commitment to deliver for local residents and focus on
prevention.
