Matters arising from the Parish Meeting
12th April 2005

Damage to Verges

This was of concern, particularly along Main Street.  The problem of large refuse lorries has been raised with Stratford District Council and they will request Biffa Services to be aware of the problem and ask that more care be taken where roads are narrow.  Farmers driving large farm vehicles are asked to please avoid Main Street if possible but we do appreciate that we live in a farming community.

Matters Discussed

Planning

Permission has been granted for the following applications

Change of use from agricultural land to residential (garden) at rear of “Silverdale” and “Northside”.

Erection of single storey visitor centre at the Horse Sanctuary, Banbury Road.

Removal of one conifer and reductions of two further trees at “Gateway”

Finance

The Clerk presented the Income and Expenditure Account for signature by the Chairman.  Also presented were the Audit Account, bank reconciliation, variation to the account and notes to the account, these will be forwarded to the External Auditor as required.

Mandatory Insurance cover was agreed for payment and the Clerk accepted an honorarium of £150 including expenses.

Highways

The Highways Department would be asked to put in place dislodged curb sets.

Information concerning the new Licensing Laws had been received.

Severn Trent Water would be asked to repair the persistent water leak on Whatcote Road.
