Dear Avis and Yana,

RE: FREEDOM OF INFORMATION REQUEST - ALLOTMENTS

Thank you for your freedom of information request pertaining to allotments
within the Borough, this has been passed to me for a reply as the
responsible Officer for this service area

The Council has a number of allotment sites around the Borough but these
are all managed by external organisations. The land is still retained
under the ownership of the Council but the sites are leased to two
Horticultural Societies that manage the sites on behalf of the Council. As
such tenancy agreements, fees and charges, and information relating to the
costs involving utilities and waste removal would be held by these two
organisations. I would therefore direct you to contact these organisations
for the information you require, for your information their contact
details are as follows:

Hutton Horticultural Society
Contact: Bryan Sams
[1][email address]

Brentwood Horticultural Society

Contact: Ben Page
Telephone: 01277 213574

I hope this has helped answer your enquiry, however, if you are unhappy
with the handling of your request, please inform us in writing. You
should supply details that you feel are relevant to your complaint. This
should be addressed to "The Complaints Coordinator, Town Hall, Ingrave
Road, Brentwood, Essex CM15 8AY.

If the Complaints Coordinator is unable to resolve your problem to your
satisfaction, you may apply to the Information Commissioner for a decision
as to whether, in any specified respect, your request for Information made
to us has been dealt with in accordance with the requirements of Part 1 of
the Act. I have also attached a letter format for your records should it
be required.

Kind Regards

Stuart Anderson [BSc LAM]
