Consultation on Edinburgh Parks Events Manifesto: comment by 31 Jan 2010

The first draft of the Edinburgh Parks Events Manifesto has now been completed and is out for consultation until 31 January 2010.


The aim of this Manifesto is to provide a framework within which a balanced and sustainable events programme can be achieved, whilst ensuring the quality of the land is maintained to the highest standard possible. It uses eight key principles, the first five determine whether an event will be given permission, the following three are aimed at the successful management of an agreed event. Each principle has a section giving background information and comments are invited on each of these principles.


A questions template is available to assist responses. Comments should be sent to parks@edinburgh.gov.uk by 31 January 2010.


Update: Three briefing papers have been prepared by Friends of the Meadows & Bruntsfield Links to help consultees and give them some background information. They are available (all as PDF) from the FOMBL website: Briefing Paper 1 | Briefing Paper 2 | Briefing Paper 3
