SECTION A
Sogbae Local Government has identified a vacant land
besides its marriage registry building.
The
director of administration proposed that the land be used either for a cybercafé where the general public can browse,
make phone
calls,
photocopy and carry out other computer services or
for construction
of an entertainment
event-hall that can
be rented out on commercial basis.
This idea was tabled at the
council`s management meeting
and unanimously
accepted. However, the Finance and General Purposes Committee recommended five years
for the project since the council secretariat building
will be extended in
future to
accommodate more
offices for the increased
staff strength
and this was approved.
The cost of building the cybercafé and the event-hall with necessary facilities and fittings as well as the
expected cash inflows/profits as
prepared by the director of administration are as
follows:
