The Parish Council met on Tuesday, 6th February and the meeting was attended by 8 Councillors and 9 members of the public. In the public session at the beginning of the meeting, local residents raised their concerns in relation to the proposed development of the disused garage at Longstone and the site adjacent to the busy road and dangerous junction. Residents also requested that a "dog bin" be situated in this area of the parish.
The Parish Council considered 4 planning applications and agreed to request a site meeting for the Longstone Garage application. Monthly accounts were approved and the Parish Council agreed to support the applications for grant funding being submitted by the Playing Field Committee to develop the old tennis courts into an all weather court area for the under 5s and 12-16 year olds. The two parish bus shelters will be re-painted over the next few weeks.
The next meeting will be the Annual Parish Meeting followed by a Parish Council Meeting and will be held in the St Mabyn Memorial Hall on Tuesday, 6th March 2007 at 7.30pm. The Annual. Parish Meeting is open to parishioners and everyone is cordially invited to attend.
