There are audit requirements that need to be signed and approved prior to the audit taking place in June, therefore all PMPC members will attend. 034/21 Items for May Newsletter The Clerk requested submissions for the next Newsletter due in May.

These are: 1 x Penton Corner, 2 x Pond, 1 x Trinity Rise. A separate quotation for the benches owned by PRC will be forwarded to the Chairman. 036/21 PMPC Projects for 2021 Ongoing financials allow for a degree of spend this fiscal year. We have our reserve of £5k put aside. After annual costs and leaving an allowance, we can budget for approximately just under £3k of project spend. Suggestions put forward included a new solid notice board at the entrance to the recreation ground to replace the flimsy one in place. The Clerk will obtain quotations. The suggestion put forward to engrave the board in remembrance of Prince Phillip was agreed upon. The purchase of 2 x Union Flags was suggested. The Clerk will enquire of PRC and PCC if they require these. Version 1 page 2 PENTON MEWSEY PARISH COUNCIL 2021 037/21 Councillors Reports: Cllr Carrick requested a Welcome Pack for new residents. Cllr Briant will follow up with the resident at Penton Corner concerning the noise from the highway. The Clerk will escalate to both County & Borough Councils and request an update. The ownership of the old road is currently unknown. Cllr Briant thanked all residents who have offered to become TVBC community pickers and have collected their pickers and equipment. The benefits are already being seen in and around the village. Concern was expressed about the state of the highway, particularly Foxcotte Lane from beyond the village gates at Weyhill end to past the gates into Charlton. One particularly dangerous pothole has taken many months of reporting both online and to the County Councillor before any action has been taken. Thanks was given to Cllr Booth for checking and repair where necessary of the planting at Newbury Hill. The Clerk will ask Cllr Bennett to remove the dead branches that are placed on the edge of the highway. 038/21 Clerk Report: The Clerk reported that although advised otherwise, the gates at the private road were at times open. Members of the public have been seen walking around the units out of hours. The clerk will report to the Agent. The verge at the pond is in a very bad state. The drains are damaged and the verge eroded. The pumping station has been removed; however, the bollards remain. The Clerk will request removal. The drain damage will be reported and investigations made if kerbstone can be erected to avoid further damage to the verge. 039/21 Finance: The end of year audit recommended that evidence of payments and transactions was included within the minutes.
