The purpose of the report is to seek an endorsement from Executive Board to the principle of continuing the process of improving Tropical World, and to pursue significant changes at Home Farm and Lotherton Hall Bird Garden. The report will;
• Highlight conceptual design proposals developed to date;
• Summarise the rationale for development at each site, including an analysis of any pre development consultation outcomes;
• Identify priority work elements and the phasing of each proposed development;
