2. Matters Arising from the Previous Minutes
These were agreed as a true record.
Skegness Trip
The trip is booked with Tiger Coaches for £375. All the seats have been allocated.
3. Big Summer Clean
An event publicised by Nottingham City Council to clean up certain aspects of Nottingham. Several of the road signs on the estate were reported for cleaning and repair but none of these were done by the deadline of the Big Summer Clean. Susan was going to chase up to get these completed.
Action : Susan Ward-Rice
4. Fundraising
A method of fundraising was circulated to try and raise funds for group to be able to take any projects forwards on the estate. The suggested scheme was based on the National Lottery Bonus Ball with a household purchasing one of the 49 numbers for a £1 with a winner each week with 50% to the prize fund and 50% to the Residents Association.
By law we would be required to register under the “Small Society Lottery” registration. This has an initial registration cost of £40 with annual renewal of £20.
5. Robert Shaw Playing Field Update
There are 3 plans that are being circulated around that are up for adaptation during consultation. Groundworks should be also posting these plans near the field. It was suggested that an event could be held on the field to publicise the plans.
6. Treasurers Report.
Received with thanks. Current balance of the Residents Association is £29 in credit.
