2016/17 – 5

18. To note the date of the Christmas dinner for the over 65 years and agree action: Clerk

This will be held on Friday 16th December in the Church Hall, St Marks. Given the late decision to hold this, it had been difficult to get dates. It
would not have been possible to hold this event at Brickhill Community Centre as it heavily used on Fridays.

19. To receive an update on the fair held on Waveney Green on the 13th/14th August and any further action: The Clerk reported that all the Clerk
feedback had been positive.

It was agreed that Mr Gumble be allowed to use Waveney Green again next August should he wish to do so.

20. To receive a report from the Borough Councillors:

Cllr Royden reported that it would be possible to put a fountain in the Rooksmead pond which should help with aeration. Extending double
yellow lines has gone out to consultation and further action will take place once responses have been considered.

21. To note the possible election for the vacant post of parish councillor in the East Ward: The Clerk reported that she would post the information
on the website and the noticeboards. The deadline for nominations was noon on the 9th September. Possible date for the poll was 6th October.

22. To review the list of outstanding matters and agree any further action:

St Thomas More Travel Plan: Cllr Blakeman had not heard anything regarding the planned residents meeting. What he did know was that the

bus that used to drop off and pick up at Moriston Road would now do so within the school grounds. This would avoid 50-70 children negotiating Clerk
the road.

It was agreed that this item would be placed on the October agenda.

23. Staffing Matters: To receive a report on the appraisal of the Clerk Sue Bottoms and agree action. Under the Public Bodies (Admission to Cllr Fitzpatrick
Meetings) Act 1960 (as extended by s.100 of the Local Government Act 1972), press and public are excluded from this item of the agenda.

24. Date of Next Meeting: Thursday 6th October 2016 at 7:30pm at St Mark’s Church and Community Centre, Calder Rise, MK41 7UY.
