95/06        CHAIRMAN’S REPORT 

1.                FETE FIELD

Completion date needs to fall in line with the playing fields completion.  Opening may coincide with the Summer Fete (17.6.06).  The TDA is to meet on 12 January to further this. 

The drain connection will now go into the manhole in Spout Lane, due notice will be given to residents, as this option will cause disruption to the residents and their car parking.

2.                ENVIRONMENTAL MAINTENANCE

Sweeping should now be back on the six monthly programme, although the dog bins have not been emptied as frequently as they should have been and there are some areas of the village looking quite scruffy.

96/06        VILLAGE PLAN

Tony Keys is analysing the results of the questionnaire as the response has been around 33%, a presentation will be given to the next meeting.

97/06        NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH

400 leaflets had been circulated, and 34 leaflets returned, which is quite disappointing although it should be enough to continue with the initiative.
