Councillor Richard Williams, chair of the Charity Trustee Sub-Committee, said the decision balanced financial sustainability, operational efficiency and their duty to preserve the park.
“This solution is not just practical, it protects the charity’s interests, ensures the park is maintained to the highest standards, and secures vital funding for improvements, with £6,300 ring-fenced each year for enhancements within Graves Park,” he said.
“We know how much Graves Park means to local families, Friends groups, and residents across Sheffield.
“That’s why we are taking every step with care, listening to your views, and working transparently.”
