Parishioners are urgently requested to contact Cllr David Brown regarding feedback to the Questionnaires handed out at the Carnival and also given to all Sports Clubs who currently use the building in order that the Parish Council may consider what decisions need to be discussed.

Allotments

It has been brought to the attention of the Parish Council that during the recent very dry weather conditions some tenants have been seen using hoses and sprinklers and it would remind tenants of clause n) in the Tenancy Agreement which reads: 'The Tenants shall not use a hosepipe or sprinkler on the Allotment'.

Edlesborough Parish Council and EDaN

A very informative presentation has been given to the Parish Council by members of the EDaN steering group, who continue to work towards achieving many topics of concern to the Parish.

Road Safety

The Parish Council will be liaising with Edlesborough School regarding various issues of road safety particularly the parking problems in the High Street and Pebblemoor.

Litter Bins

It is proposed that additional larger litter bins will be placed on the verges outside the Green to replace the smaller bins currently situated on the Green, which will be emptied by AVDC and reduce the need for volunteers.

Dagnall

The Parish Council are waiting to hear from Tesco Insurers regarding a claim for the damage streetlight.

Northall/Edlesborough

The request for clearing footpaths in Northall and between Northall and Edlesborough has again been brought to the attention of Bucks CC and this will be carried out as soon as conveniently possible.

South End Lane & Chapel Lane, Northall

Work has at last commenced on forming the footpaths and roadworks in South End Lane and the Parish Council will ensure that these are carried out as originally intended. Large pot holes in Chapel Lane have been reported for urgent repair.

Thames Valley Police will be attending Parish Council meetings once a quarter commencing at the October meeting, when parishioners are very welcome to attend to put any concerns they may have to the Police.
