2.         Matters Arising from the Previous Minutes

M&S Interiors has sold a lease of the building to a couple of community members.  They are currently in the process of applying for planning permission to turn the venue in to a community centre open to all comers.  There are numerous planning and building regulations to meet should a change of use be granted.  The building should not be used until such permissions have been granted.


3.         Robert Shaw Playing Field – Update

The application to gain access to Section 106 money to develop the second phase of the field has been granted.  This would mean the development of the football and cricket area with the landscaping that would require.  The football pitch size is based on 11 year old players.  The development of the Multi-use Games Area would require additional funding.

6.         Any Other Business

Parking – Dorothy Grove and around the school have become significantly congested.  Karen informed the meeting that a new group has started with different attendance times that has increase the flow of traffic at certain times.  The school and the Police are working closely to try and resolve some of the more dangerous issues.  It is known that parents make sensible parking choices when there is a visual presence of Karen or the Police but slip in to poor practice when there isn’t. 

It is on-going frustrating issue.
