AGENDA

  • There are sufficient committee members in attendance to pass motions
  • Note no formal meetings were held in June or July, there are no outstanding minutes to be published.
  • The revised Bathouse plan from SK was presented and it was felt that progress was slow and we need to re-jig the resourcing on this so VL and MD took over the project from SK - we thank him for the efforts so far, but it was felt we needed some sense of urgency to deliver on one of our original mandate promises made in 2018.
  • Village in Bloom. We discussed further with VL taking the lead but loosely the idea is to try and keep our village tidy and well-groomed, helping those that need it with ideas, labour, plants & flowers
  • Halloween: It was agreed that we should try to put on some socially-distanced version of this. MD is to produce guidelines and then we'll push out the details on FB.
  • Christmas: We discussed the Round Table Sleigh, we reference to social distancing and will update the village on plans in the Autumn
  • The "Who does what" document was approved and published at https://www.fhvra.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Who-looks-after-what.pdf
  • School Buses for FHV: No further update until the COVID school re-opening plan is approved at the council level. VL is to take this up with APH
  • Noticeboard: The funding awarded is insufficient (we think) for a noticeboard befitting the village. VL is to canvas FB about options and opinions.
  • Cask Court Wall Collapse: The "public" drystone walls have reverted back to BDWH ownership and responsbility - JG is exploring some history of a previous wall collapses and how they were resolved. Plan is to document and then advise those it effects to contact BDWH, but this may involve legal so legal insurance may be required. More next month.
  • Banking: In our drive to seek additional funding and grants we are adding SR to the bank account we hold. MD and VL are the current signatories.
  • Dog Bins: We discussed the possibility of dog bins on OWR. VL contacted APH to raise the issue which is now in progress.
The meeting started at 6:30 pm, closed at 8:30 pm.
