During tonight’s Cabinet meeting, the six members present (Cllr Hunter-Henderson was absent) voted unanimously to accept proposals to close 27 public toilets on the Isle of Wight.
40 public conveniences will remain open, with Compton Bay and Ventnor’s Marlborough Road included in those that are being saved from original proposals.
Cllr George Brown told the meeting that the Ventnor Botanic Garden toilet will be ‘part and parcel’ of whoever takes over the Garden when the Isle of Wight council ceases funding at the end of July 2011.
