    ILTON PARISH COUNCIL Minutes of the Ordinary Meeting of Ilton Parish Council held in Merryfield Hall on Tuesday 9th July 2019 2019/122 Attendance and Apologies Those present: Apologies In Attendance Mr I Sherwood (Chair) Mr G Fox 12 members of the Mrs R Burt (Vice Chair) Mrs S Hill public Mrs M Bullock Mrs P Matravers Mrs J Easterbrook Mr I Welch Ms H Wakeford Mr A Dance (County Mr M Cavill (District Councillor) Councillor) Mrs S Morley (Clerk) 2019/123 Visitors and Public Voice (a) Development behind St Peter's Close A resident commented that every winter Rod Lane floods and if the surface run off area is reduced by building it will make matters worse. It was felt that the developers need to ensure there are sufficient land drains installed. Another resident brought up the issue of the prior discussion that the parish council had with the developer and the view expressed by the parish council that there is a need for low cost housing in the village. The resident commented that Ilton already has a disproportionate amount of low cost housing and it needs more higher banded properties to ensure it receives sufficient council tax which would also give Ilton a louder voice. Another resident commented that the low cost housing which is included in the new development on the edge of the playing field is not selling, some bungalows remain on the market for a long time and that Ilton does not need more low cost housing. The resident asked why the parish council felt that the village needs more low cost housing and where is the evidence.

  • Somerset Library Services Consultation 2018 Summary Proposal
    Somerset Library Services Consultation 2018 Summary Proposal Tell us your views on how we are proposing to deliver future library services in Chard, Crewkerne, Ilminster and surrounding area - Area 5 - Chard, Crewkerne, Ilminster libraries. We’d like to invite you to tell us your views on some potential changes we are considering making to the future delivery of library services in your community and across Somerset. Somerset County Council is fully committed to continuing to deliver a thriving, modern library service across Somerset. As with many Authorities, however, we continue to face challenging financial times. Somerset County Council received £90million in 2013/14 from central government to support our services. This has reduced to just over £26million for 2017/18 and is set to reduce to nothing by 2020/21- whilst demand for services has increased, particularly in adult and children social care. We have managed to reduce our library budget by 20% since 2011, whilst keeping all of our libraries open. Going forward, we may need to consider more challenging changes in order to keep the Libraries Service on a sustainable financial footing. The following summary proposal provides three options exploring how we might deliver library services in your community in future. There are another eight area summary proposals available to view, which include library proposals for the remaining areas of Somerset. Please carefully read the following information, consider the two proposed options then complete the questionnaire, basing your answers on the library you visit most often. We stress that no decisions about the future delivery of library services in any community have been taken at this time and the results of this consultation will be taken into account in our decision-making.

    DeDicattons of tfte Cfjutcbcs of ©ometsetsftire. BY THE KEY. E. H. BATES, M.A HE late Mr. W illiam Long contributed to the seventeenth “L volume of the Proceedings in 1871 a classified list of the Church Dedications given by Ecton in his Thesaurus Rerum Ecclesiasticarum, 1742. As Editor of the Bath and Wells Diocesan Kalendar my attention has been frequently drawn, from my own knowledge as well as by numerous correspon- dents, to the many errors and gaps in that list. It became plainly necessary to go behind the Thesaurus to the original sources of information. And here I may be allowed to repro- duce what I have already stated in the preface to the Kalendar for 1905. It should be clearly understood that there is no authoritative list in existence. Among the Public Becords are two works known as Pope Nicholas’ Taxatio of 1291, and the Valor Ec- clesiasticus of 27 Henry VIII (1536), containing the names of all parishes in England and Wales. These were primarily drawn up to ascertain the value of the benefices, and only in- cidentally, as in the case of towms with many churches, are the dedications added. The latter work, to which the title of V^ahr Ecclesiasticus or Liber Regis is generally given, was first printed in 1711 by J ohn Ecton. His preface contains a very interesting account of the early work of the Queen Anne’s Bounty Fund, of which he was Receiver, and of the serious state of affairs in the large towns which led to its foundation.
