Page 7 of 31 There are always recurring issues and these are shown below – it is your responsibility to report issues – the PC cannot be everywhere all the time. If you don’t let them know don’t complain! Street-light and Pot-hole Problems If you notice a street-light not working please either phone the number on the lamp-post, report it in the first instance via the East Riding of Yorkshire Council website or email Maggie [email protected] with the name of the road, the location and the number on the lamp-post. The East Riding of Yorkshire Council is responsible for our street-lights and will rectify all problems. Pot-holes are the bane of our lives and the East Riding of Yorkshire Council is again responsible for repairing them, it appears that in cold weather they only make a temporary repair which is then done properly once the road surface is warmer. To report problems ring 01482 887700 and ask for Highways or report via the East Riding of Yorkshire Council website with exact location and if possible a picture, the picture seems to help get the repair done more quickly!! Doggie Bag Dispensers and Litter Bins The village is now well covered with bins. Parish Councillors are alarmed at the number of bags having to be bought and therefore paid for out of public funds. Would dog owners please make their own arrangements for buying doggie bags (bags such as nappy bags are very inexpensive from many stores) and use the doggie bag dispensers as a backup. The Parish Council has set up a maximum budget for doggie bags and you may therefore find dispensers empty at certain times, please be a responsible dog owner and pick up your pets droppings. Recording of PC meetings, legislation allows residents to record meetings Child Protection The main message from experts is to listen to vulnerable people and always report suspicions, they will always be investigated, Ward Councillor Victoria Aitken has given out a “Golden number” to report suspicions 01482 395500 External grants If any voluntary groups in the village need help in sourcing external grants please contact the Parish Council Clerk Maggie Fuller Defibrillators We have two defibs available 24/7 with one attached to the outside wall at the Village Hall entrance plus one on Margaret’s DIY external wall. If you have a medical emergency phone 999, the operator will give you the code for the defib box if it is needed, defibs if used quickly can help keep people alive until the emergency services get there Severe weather, The Parish Council has updated the village severe weather plan to make sure we are as ready as possible for bad weather. Page 8 of 31 Burial grounds, The Church Graveyard and Parish Council Cemetery have the grass cut by our Parish Council handyman Pete who does a great job for the village. Lots of people have said that they would be willing to volunteer some time, the Parish Council is aware that some people do look after their family graves and this is perfectly acceptable to the Church and Parish Council.
