Parish Council News - Winter 2011
The Parish Council has agreed the dates of the Parish Council meetings to be held during the next twelve months. They are as follows:
12th January
15th March
24th May (AGM of the Parish Council, Residents’ meeting, Parish Council meeting)
19th July
20th September
8th November
The meetings always start at 8.00pm and are held in the small hall of Coleshill Village Hall. The notice of the meeting and its agenda are posted on the Parish Council notice board, which is by the Village Hall.
During the next couple of months we are to expect some adverse weather conditions. With this in mind, the Parish Council has purchased three grit bins that are placed around the village. Transport for Buckinghamshire have announced that they have a fleet of 25 salting lorries and that they treat 40% of the country’s road network, providing 24 hour a day cover. You should be able to track the gritting lorries’ whereabouts by going to www.buckscc.gov.uk/transport, which is the service information centre. You can also report a road problem on the site, whether it be pot-holes, fallen trees on the highway, etc, you can then follow its progress for repair or removal. For android and iphones you can download an app from the app store – TfB Service Information Centre.
Weather conditions are emailed to me from the Met Office. This has been invaluable in the last couple of years, especially for those travelling a lot by road. If you would like up-dates, please join my village email list by emailing me at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and I will add you to the list.
We look forward to seeing you at the next Parish Council meeting. Remember, near the beginning of the meeting is the democratic period where everyone can raise a point, ask a question, make a request and perhaps even congratulate the Parish, District and County Councils on the work they do in the parishes.
