Present:Lisa Goulbourne, Winifred Beck, Anne-Marie Newton, Simon Hudson, Michael Graham,.

Agenda

  • After complaining to the Council and relentlessly about them not responding to the emails about our unstable gate, they have agreed to come and secure it at their cost. 
  • There are still a few plot holders that got warnings that are still failing.  If there is no significant change by the end of March. You could have to move forward to the next steps. 
  • Council sent out an asbestos guideline sheet which I handed out at the meeting. Michael also suggested it would be a good idea to put it on the main noticeboard.
  • Anne-Marie is working together with Dave to get a full handover. And is sorting out the rent payment.
  • We spoke about getting a professional tree surgeon to de-skirt the oak tree.
  • Forms are being filled in for the committee members for banking access. 

A.O.B

  • Need to take photos of the book fence attached your crime numbers to them and email to the Council. 
  • Winnifred has resigned as chair. 
  • Anne-Marie asked for information from the database to help with her account, which I will get over to her. 

We are now looking for a new chair, as well as a few new committee members. If you would be interested in helping the Association by serving as Chair or a committee member, please put your name forward to:
