The Parish Council has adopted the Power of Well being (this power enables a Parish Council to spend money outside of its normal remit of Powers, but this power is not open to all Parish Councils, the Council has to have a qualified Clerk and the Councillors have undergone strict training) As part of this power we have adopted a Statement of Intent as to Community Engagement, this can be found under Council Information. If you have any questions about this new power please contact The Clerk.

The Parish Council has adopted the Red phone boxes in the following villages, Dinder, Haybridge, East Horrington, West Horrington, Polsham and Coxley. We now need to know what you would like the phones boxes used for, we have had a couple of suggestions, but more are welcome, please write to The Clerk.

The Parish Council wishes to pass on it's thanks to Edwin White for his generosity and support in allowing the Parish Council to purchase the piece of land in Easton for the children of the village to use as a playground. Next step is for the children/teenagers of the villages to get their thinking hats on and let the Parish Council know what sort of equipment they want. So let us know.

The Parish Council would like to say a big thank you to Stewart Hilborne for his excellent job in re-surfacing the footpath form Manor Court to the main road in Easton, the Parish Council paid for this work to be completed.

The Parish Council has asked for the hedge between The Pound and Mill Lane to be removed and replaced with post and rails, this would make the pavement wider and might even include a cycle lane.

West Horrington residents are to get a dog bin and grit bin, the Parish Council paid for and installed 2 grit bins in East Horrington, 2 grit bins in Easton, 1 West Horrington.

Allotments at Wookey Hole, the new land has been divided up into new allotments and the waiting list has been cleared. There are still a few plots available, If anyone is interest in an allotments please contact the Clerk.

The Parish Council is glad to support the ongoing funding of the memorial hall in Coxley and has given the hall a grant of £1000 towards it building costs.

 

The Parish Council is also glad to support the ongoing funding of Easton Village Hall and has also given them £1000 towards their building project. We wish both schemes the best of luck with their grant applications to Mendip District Council.
