Appendix 1: public toilet provision from 1 April 2023
This appendix sets out the public toilet provision from 1 April 2023 using two scenarios:
· The service operating with a £0.605m budget
· The service operating with a £0.905m budget
Points to note:
· A different staffing model is required for the summer, compared to the winter due to higher usage of public toilets. The summer staffing model increases costs considerably.
· The modelling has incorporated the running costs of each site (utilities, maintenance, consumables, sanitaryware collections), staffing, vehicles and provision of agency staff to provide cover for annual leave and sickness.
