2008/004 To approve Minutes

Cllr. Stewart proposed, Cllr. Warwick seconded that the Minutes of 5 December 2007 be accepted as a true record and this was agreed.

2008/005 Matters arising

2007/146 and 2007/153 - Pensioners Christmas Party - allocation of places - C/Cllr. Rob Toy had sent an e-mail to the Clerk of Cottesmore Parish Council enquiring - "Can you please advise me of the circumstances behind the withdrawal?" Members noted that no answer had been circulated from the Clerk. It was noted that Cottesmore Parish Council had not replied to our e-mail of 4 October 2007, requesting that members from Market Overton Parish Council join the 'committee' in January 2008, to discuss reviewing a fairer system of allocations.

2008/006 Correspondence

2008/007 Payments

Parish Clerk Members noted the Monthly and also Quarterly Statement of Accounts.

2008/008 Planning Applications

Members noted the approval of -

2008/009 Reports

Speedwatch - The training day was now arranged for Wednesday 23 January 2008 at 7 p.m. in the Village Hall - the scheme to be implemented from 28 January 2008.

2008/010 Thistleton Road improvements

Highways now ranked the Scheme at 22 on the list of projects and confirmed it was not included in the 2008/9 programme of works. Members queried whether the list was based on the cost of each scheme - e.g. £24,000 - whereas it might have a higher listing as the balance was now £5,000! Perhaps the Access Budget could finance the difference - but RCC and Access Group keep passing the can who can authorise it!

2008/011 Future items

2008/012 Date of next meeting

It was agreed to hold the next Parish Council Meeting on Wednesday 6 February 2008 at 7.00 p.m. in the Village Hall. (Meeting closed at 7-50 p.m.)
