Parish Matters

Fust a brief note on last nights parish council meeting. Genny Roach reported that the request for dispersal orders to counter anti social behaviour in the village have now bbeeb granted. I regard the fact that such an order has now been granted hufglights a failure by the community to resolve its intergenerational ptoblems and it is to be hpoped that the more positive atmosphere currently existing around the issues will mean that the dispersal orders have a short shelf life. Hopefully, things can be progressed further throufg the public meeting due in early march although the fact that no members of the public attended the meeting last night to discuss the issues mwans that there is still work to do.

The council also voted to contribute money towards a street partyfor the forthcoming diamond jubilee 'celebrations'.  As a life long republican I shall be taking no part in the proceedings, or anything to do with the  beacon at Christ Cross. I still hold to the view that if if the village wants a party they would be better organising an annual St Georges Day event.
