Eight sites are self-managed. They are classified as Scheme B sites. These sites are highlighted in red on the allotment map. The sites are maintained by the site committee which sets the rent and lets the plots.
Other sites are either managed by the Council or they are in a Shared Management scheme with the site committee. Shared Managed sites are classified as Scheme A sites. The Council sets the rent. They share responsibility for site maintenance and plot letting. The rent are set according to the size of the plot and facilities available on the site.
The main source of information about Scheme A and Council Managed sites is the Green Spaces department at the Civic Centre. Click here for contact details.
