Matters arising There were none.
District Councillor's report
J Stimson had emailed a report from the task group which was going
to the next Scrutiny Committee. H Hutton said it looked satisfactory and representatives from her
association would be attending the meeting.
County Councillor's report
The Structure Plan review period was coming to an end and he would
send us comments forms to fill in (we agreed to the changes being made), similarly for the minerals
consultation. The county council would be sending a consultation document regarding the future
principles of consultation. There had been only a 1% response to the SEERA so called consultation
and a meeting was being held in July at which county and district council responses would be made.
J Howell was now the cabinet member for change management which had perhaps helped in the
production of the good news that R Dix had found £26,000 from S106 agreements to help towards
traffic management in the village. He would be invited to the July meeting to give some idea of
what would be possible and costings.
Matters for consideration
 |
 |
Risk assessment - the annual insurance for the parish had been paid and ongoing playground
maintenance work undertaken. It was decided to ask 'Safe and Sound' who had
satisfactorily carried out the work to undertake ongoing inspection and maintenance in lieu
of inspection set for July. |
 |
 |
Audit return 2004/2005 - this was accepted and the statement of assurance signed. |
 |
 |
There had been complaints about an overgrown grassy area at top end of Pheasant walk.
Clerk would look at it and ask G Surman to tidy it up in the first instance. |
 |
