The meeting will carry on from the good work from our last meeting where we identified key themes of importance in terms of the future development of the village. The agenda will loosely be as follows;

• Welcome and introductions
• Administrative arrangements for the group
• Key themes for the Neighbourhood Plan and early tasks for evidence base development
• Structure of the Neighbourhood Plan

The key thing is to divide up some tasks so that we can collect the evidence needed to support our plan. This needs people to volunteer to have even a small involvement as we just don’t have the finances to have everything brought together by our planning consultant. There will be lots of help and guidance, but we do need individuals to get involved if we are to arrive at a good robust plan that the whole village can get behind.

School Bus

We still don’t have an answer as to whether we can get someone from NYCC to attend the meeting on Thursday to discuss the situation regarding the proposal to cancel the school bus for fee paying pupils. The plan is that if we can get someone there we will deal with the bus issue at 7pm before we begin the Neighbourhood Plan session.

Any updates will be posted here.
