Overview of reserve position: This should be read alongside report 9(b), which outlines two requests to move money from reserves into appropriate expenditure lines.

This decision was taken because, as the building ages, it is important to maintain a reasonable buildings reserve. Also, the reserves were used last year to pay for the new IT infrastructure, the awning for the café and specialist paintings storage units for the art store and therefore now require ‘topping up’ to ensure a sufficient reserve in case of emergency need. • A further £10,000 has been added to the Council-Run Exhibitions reserve. This is because this financial year is the last year that we will have income from Cornwall Council and Cornwall Museums Partnership towards exhibition costs, and it was therefore decided to add £10,000 to this reserve to assist with the cost of borrowing works for exhibition. There is no planned in-year contribution to this reserve in the next two financial years. Anna Renton Director 28 June 2021 Page 2 of 2 Item 9(a) ii FINANCE & GENERAL PURPOSES COMMITTEE 28 JUNE 2021 REPORT FOR DECISION MOVEMENT OF FUNDS FROM EAR-MARKED RESERVES – PENLEE HOUSE Recommendation: That the Finance & General Purposes Committee resolves to recommend to the Town Council: a) A virement of up to £3,925 from the Buildings Fund (2995/2) to the Museum Maintenance Fittings budget line 2100/1 to pay for a new fire alarm panel and installation at Penlee House. b) A virement of up to £10,000 from the Council-Run Exhibitions Reserve (2995/3) to the Council Run Exhibitions line (2055) to cover the costs of to borrow paintings for the Anchor Studio exhibition. Background: Fire Alarm Panel The current fire alarm panel was installed in 1997 and is reaching the end of its useful life. The screen has burned out, making it difficult to determine which zones have been activated. Although not dangerous, it is prudent to replace the panel before it fails. We are currently obtaining three quotations to ensure best value. The quoted cost from the existing supplier to replace the panel is £3,925 + VAT. It is therefore requested to vire up to £3,925 from the reserve, but the best value supplier will be used. Exhibition transportation The cost of borrowing paintings has increased in recent years, and especially during the pandemic. This is due to increased transportation costs and increased administrative charges being passed on from lending institutions. Paintings travelling to Penlee House from other museums require transportation by specialist art handling companies. Best value is always sought. Due to the pandemic, our exhibitions programme has had to change, and the Anchor Studio exhibition, which was due to start in January, now falls entirely into the current financial year. This means that the transportation costs for this exhibition were only factored in as ‘one way’ during the financial year 2021-22. As the exhibition was postponed to September, ending in January, both the incoming and outgoing costs will fall into the same financial year. Page 1 of 2 Item 9(a) ii For this reason, we are requesting the ability to transfer up to £10,000 to help with the cost of the Anchor Studio exhibition. From the Penlee House Reserves Position paper it will be noted that £10,000 was added to the reserve this year, therefore, we are asking just to be able to use up to this amount if required. Alternative funding sources will be sought, so the impact on the reserve may be lessened, however, it would be very helpful to have the reassurance of being able to use up to £10,000 from the reserve to ensure that the exhibition transportation can go ahead. Anna Renton Director 28 June 2021 Page 2 of 2 Item 9(b) i FINANCE AND GENERAL PURPOSES COMMITTEE - 28 JUNE 2021 REPORT FOR DECISION REVIEW OF EARMARKED RESERVES – LEISURE AND AMENITIES COMMITTEE Recommendation That the Finance & General Purposes committee resolves to recommend to the Town Council to approve the earmarked reserves, as reviewed and recommended by the Leisure and Amenities Committee.

  • Just a Balloon Report Jan 2017
    Just a Balloon BALLOON DEBRIS ON CORNISH BEACHES Cornish Plastic Pollution Coalition | January 2017 BACKGROUND This report has been compiled by the Cornish Plastic Pollution Coalition (CPPC), a sub-group of the Your Shore Network (set up and supported by Cornwall Wildlife Trust). The aim of the evidence presented here is to assist Cornwall Council’s Environment Service with the pursuit of a Public Spaces Protection Order preventing Balloon and Chinese Lantern releases in the Duchy. METHODOLOGY During the time period July to December 2016, evidence relating to balloon debris found on Cornish beaches was collected by the CPPC. This evidence came directly to the CPPC from members (voluntary groups and individuals) who took part in beach-cleans or litter-picks, and was accepted in a variety of formats:- − Physical balloon debris (latex, mylar, cords & strings, plastic ends/sticks) − Photographs − Numerical data − E mails − Phone calls/text messages − Social media posts & direct messages Each piece of separate balloon debris was logged, but no ‘double-counting’ took place i.e. if a balloon was found still attached to its cord, or plastic end, it was recorded as a single piece of debris. PAGE 1 RESULTS During the six month reporting period balloon debris was found and recorded during beach cleans at 39 locations across Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly shown here:- Cornwall has an extensive network of volunteer beach cleaners and beach cleaning groups. Many of these are active on a weekly or even daily basis, and so some of the locations were cleaned on more than one occasion during the period, whilst others only once.

The presentation of all monitoring features into these catchment maps will assist in developing an integrated approach to catchment management and operation. The water quality monitoring maps and index were originally incorporated into the Catchment Action Plans. They provide a visual presentation of monitored sites within a catchment and enable water quality data to be accessed easily by all departments and external organisations. The maps bring together information from different sections within Water Quality. The routine river monitoring and tidal water monitoring points, the licensed waste disposal sites and the monitored effluent discharges (pic, non-plc, fish farms, COPA Variation Order [non-plc and pic]) are plotted. The type of discharge is identified such as sewage effluent, dairy factory, etc. Additionally, river impact and control sites are indicated for significant effluent discharges. If the watercourse is not sampled then the location symbol is qualified by (*). Additional details give the type of monitoring undertaken at sites (ie chemical, biological and algological) and whether they are analysed for more specialised substances as required by: a. EC Dangerous Substances Directive b. EC Freshwater Fish Water Quality Directive c. DOE Harmonised Monitoring Scheme d. DOE Red List Reduction Programme c.

    South Coast – West Cornwall Below the Promenade there is little or no beach at high water. At low tide there are banks of shingle and sand that slopes down to areas of grey PENZANCE silt (very fine sand) and flat rocky outcrops. At the Promenade & Wherrytown Beaches Jubilee end of the beach it is mostly rocks. At Wherrytown and Newlyn Green there are areas of stone above high water that give way to shingle and at low water very fine sand and rocks. This is the closest beach to the centre of Penzance (about 600m). It is essentially one beach that stretches from Newlyn to the Jubilee Swimming Pool There is safety at Battery Rocks. By Cornish standards it is perhaps equipment at various locations above the length of not the most attractive of beaches because of the the beach. It is not renowned as a swimming beach grey shingle and fine silt exposed at low water. although when conditions are right it is safe, especially at half tide and above. It is not a surfing beach at all. Snorkelling is not associated with this beach but can be good around Battery Rocks. There are numerous rock pools at low water. Dogs are not permitted from Jubilee Pool along the Promenade to Wherrytown. From the Lariggan Stream which crosses the beach along to Newlyn, dogs are allowed.

In keeping with Penzance’s wonderful location our theme this year is “Golowan – All at Sea” - a tongue in cheek invitation to celebrate our amazing maritime heritage, and reflect it in a blaze of nautical imagery. However, “All at Sea!” couldn’t be wider of the mark, as the focus of everyone has been to ensure that, while cherishing established traditions, new things are tried, new partnerships secured and Golowan goes from strength to strength. All the elements for a great weekend are here - the mid-summer torchlit procession, serpent dancing and fireworks, the manic Mock Mayor of the Quay ceremony, music and market stalls, parades… and so much more… Golowan’s Quay Fair offers all the fun of the fair on Battery Road from 21st – 25th June and – last, but not least – Golowan 2017 sees the return of the marquee in St Anthony’s Car Park where Big Tow Productions will host a range of events – including the Mock Mayor election.
