The purpose of this decision is to agree or object to the removal of a telephone kiosk on Cambridge Road, Fulbourn currently being consulted upon by BT. The Council may also agree to the relevant parish council, or relevant local group, adopting kiosks being consulted upon, which will result in the kiosk remaining and the telephony equipment being removed. BT, and other providers, must consult the local authority before removing any telephone kiosks or telephony equipment from kiosks.
The BT consultation is time-limited. A draft decision by the Sustainable Communities Manager was published and sent to the Secretary of State on 1 December 2016 following an initial 42-day consultation. This is the final decision, which follows a further consultation with parish councils, parish meetings and relevant Ward Councillors.

Relevant parish councils, parish meetings and Ward Councillors were notified of the initial 42-day consultation once notification was received by the Council. BT erected notices in each of the kiosks being consulted upon.
