The correspondence from Leven and Brandesburton
Horticultural Society was discussed and it was decided
that the Clerk would write to them thanking them for
their kind offer however, as both of the other planters
are planted up free of charge by Leven Scouts and Mrs
Ruth Mathison we wonder if they would also do this.

PLANNING APPLICATIONS:
|
S Nicholson proposed, Mrs J Gibson seconded and all were
in favour of the Chair closing the Meeting to allow Mr J
Bird to speak. The Meeting closed at 8.00pm.
Mr Bird advised that there had been two accidents with
vehicles leaving Rectory Farm which is a shared access
with two other properties. This is why the planning
application shows a new access further along the road
with better vision. The buildings that are to be
converted at present have horses in them but these are
to be moved. There will only be approximately 8 shoots
per year but having a shooting lodge will allow Mr Bird
to entertain at his own property. The erection of the
buildings will be on the footprint of buildings that
have already been there. The Meeting re-opened at
8.10pm.

FINANCIAL MATTERS:
CCTV: D Thorne is still awaiting a quote from Visual
Security Systems. A quote is to be obtained from Bower &
Linsler of Long Riston. A third quote will be obtained.
Yorkshire Wildlife Trust: The matter regarding the
purchasing of bird boxes was discussed but the decision was
made that as we live in a rural area there are plenty of
trees and hedges for the birds to make nests in. The
Councillors also feel that whilst we have vandals in the
village the boxes would also get vandalised.
REPRESENTATIVES REPORT:
Police Matters:
This was read out as correspondence. Burglaries have taken place in the
village and residents should be vigilant
GENERAL PURPOSE MATTERS:
No drinking zone signs:
The Clerk had received an email from Nigel Brignall, Safer
Communities, ERYC advising that the signs were to be put up
in March. As yet they have not appeared and the Clerk will
chase this Matter up.
ANY OTHER BUSINESS:
Speed Monitoring:
The Clerk will contact PC Pickering for an up date as to
when this will take place.
