October PC meeting SUMMARY
Three issues were amongst the many discussed this month.
There are moves afoot to improve the broadband at the Glen. Contact Cllr Storey if you need details.
The heavy rain in early October caused several highway problems which were reported to the Council and further discussion is being undertaken to find a solution to the Glen Corner junction. If you have had an accident or near miss at Glen Corner, please report it to the Parish Clerk who is logging incidents.
Finally, the Environment Group has met to begin work on Slaley Community Orchard. This will be a three phase project which will start at Park View, move (hopefully) to the School and end in a larger plantation if some land can be made available. If you have some land which you would be happy to become an orchard, please contact the Parish Clerk.
