Millennium committee Cllr Aves reported that a grant applied from 'Awards for All' to further finance the publication of a book about Reach had not been successful. Asked about a party in the village hall for New Year's Eve Cllr Aves said that this was definitely to go ahead, it was expected that the pub would also be open and there might be a marquee for overspill if large numbers of people were expected. Matters arising It was decided that it would be acceptable to hold a small bonfire on The Hythe for fireworks' night. Clerk to ask Highways Department about re-painting the road sign in the centre of the village. Correspondence Clerk had received a letter from a parishioner inquiring when the street light in Chapel Lane would be connected to the electricity. Street lighting were made aware of this and had promised urgent action. The problem of vegetation on the footpath at the end of Chapel Lane had
also been David Groom, the Divisional Maintenance Engineer had written to say salt bins would be filled in the near future. Salt would no longer be left on the side of the road where there was no bin following complaints about the damage this caused. Reach Matters Another large lorry had broken the light attached to the wall of The Old Post Office at the bottom of Fair Green. The owner of the house and a neighbour were invited to comment on the problems of large lorries negotiating this tricky bend. Clerk is to write to County about re-siting of the 'long vehicle' sign to see if this would resolve the problem. Penny Lang |
