    MEETING of DITCHEAT PARISH COUNCIL MINUTES OF THE MEETING OF DITCHEAT PARISH COUNCIL HELD ON THURSDAY 19th SEPTEMBER 2019 AT 7.30PM AT CHURCH ROOM, DITCHEAT. PRESENT: Chairperson – Councillor Evans (CE) and Councillors – Harrison (HH), Dando (JD), Hughes (LH) and Hutton (RH) IN ATTENDANCE: Miss P Griffiths – Clerk to the Council. PUBLIC PARTICIPATION – CE invited members of the public present to address the Council. Ms Paterson from Orme Architects gave an update on the new design for the proposed development at Folly Orchard. Mr R Yeoman spoke to support the development at Folly Orchard but insisted that provision of a pavement was essential. Mr A Nicholls stated that in principle he was not against the development at Folly Orchard but that all the dwellings in the proposed development should be set back in line with the existing houses, that a pavement should be included in the scheme and that in order to ensure the future of the orchard at the rear of the plot perhaps it could be donated to the Parish Council or others to manage and maintain. Mr R Yeoman then spoke again to comment of the planning application at Evercreech Junction stating that whilst he supports the industrial area was concerned about noise and light pollution and expressed disappointment in the landscaping at the site which was a condition of previous applications. 147/19 APOLOGIES FOR ABSENCE - Apologies for absence from Councillors Clark (HC) and Travis (RT) were received and approved. District Councillor Greenhalgh (JG) and PCSO Dury had sent their apologies. 148/19 CO-OPTION TO FILL THE VACANCY ON THE PARISH COUNCIL – Mrs Julie Derham (JDr) and Mr Roger James (RJ) were both co-opted as councillors by unanimous vote.
