A discussion took place with two directors of the Library over their aims and methods of funding. A suggestion of possible Vale Council involvement was raised and will be perused, together with options over the rental arrangements.
It was agreed to accept proposals from the Environment group over the siting of the Blacksmith’s Anvil and Vice on Council land adjacent to the Church Hall.
Quotations have been received for replacement windows at the Community Centre. These were discussed and it was agreed to let the contract to the company offering the best value for money bid. Quotes were also considered for the Hub patio and a contractor was agreed, but it was also decided to approach Bredon Quarry to see if they might be prepared to contribute some material towards the work.
A suggestion had been made that the Council should consider installing Speed Limit reminder signs on Old Port Rd, but after seeking the views of the Highways Authority it was concluded that the proposal was impractical.
Mention was made of the theft of Council papers from the clerk’s office which might mean that stricter security would need to be installed.
A complaint had been received from a local resident, via the Vale Council, that the Toposcope at Twynyrodyn has a misspelled place name. This will be followed up with the provider to see if it is possible to correct the error. It was also agreed to explore the cost of providing a signpost directing people to the Toposcope and the Quarrymens Memorial.
