“There are 12 people on the committee and seven of these attended on 28 April including Chris Bray (Acting Chairman) Gill Lewis (Secretary) and Ray Harris (Treasurer)
There was a printed agenda of 9 items and various relevant papers were circulated.
The meeting has a quorum of four members and meetings take place throughout the year on the last Tuesday of each month. Minutes are circulated between each meeting which record the specific tasks which members have undertaken to progress and report back on.
I was impressed by the conduct of the meeting and the active interest and involvement of all present.”
Resolved

6.6 |
Parish Council Insurance 2009/10
The Council discussed the quotes received and compared both relative costs against cover offered. It was noted that both policies were underwritten by established insurance companies and as such could be considered as safe use of public money.
It was noted that the policy offered through Came + Company offered improved cover at a reduced cost and also had the added benefit of a no claims bonus of 5% (up to a maximum of 20%). Furthermore an extra 5% could be saved if a binding 3 year agreement was signed. (Post Meeting Note It has been confirmed that if the rates applied at the beginning of the agreement are changed this will allow the Council the freedom to seek alternative insurance)
The comparisons of the two quotes are set out in Appendix 1
Resolved
That the quotation from Came + Company should be accepted as a 3 year agreement running from June 1st 2009.
ACTION CLERK
|
|
6.7 |
Colour Printer Replacement

King Street – (U74416) Grid Ref 3378 2287
Ditch alongside the road near to Golden Grove has become sheer and is quite deep. Lengthsman suggests piping to where the ditch is not so deep and further from the road (10 to 12 feet).

ACTION CLERK

Potholes and Surfaces
It was confirmed that the state of the roads, as discussed in the Parish Meeting, had deteriorated considerably. This was seen as being a common problem throughout the country owing to lack of funding, manpower and the increase use by heavy vehicles.
The Clerk reported that he had conveyed these concerns to Councillor J B Williams.
Resolved

13.4 |
A465 – Rowlstone Junction (Grid Ref 395276)
On the opposite side of the road (before the Pontrilas junction) there is a large bush which requires cutting back as it is obscuring oncoming traffic from vehicles leaving the Rowlstone junction. Councillor Mrs M Williams has pursued this long outstanding issue and the work has now been completed.

|
14.1 |
Footpaths Officer’s Report
EH 14/18 The Wye-Usk foundation has completed the fencing work around the Dulas brook and Hereford council has provided two new gates on EH 14 and one on the bridge. In theory this means that livestock can now be kept out of the area and the damage to the paths minimised. We are still expecting the path crossing to be stoned this summer.
EH14A A new metal gate has been installed at the south end.
EH4 A new metal gate has been installed on the east side of the bridge where it crosses EH2.
EH 32 A new metal gate has been installed to replace the third stile along from the Pontrilas road.
|
14.2 |
EH13 Church Road
It was noted that, as reported by the FPO in April, the rotten stile on this path at the end of Church Road will be replaced with a gate. This work will be completed as soon as the gate is delivered by Herefordshire Council.
