April 2019 Jottings

A monthly newsletter following the Parish Council meeting in April 2019

We are applying for permission to DCC Highways Department for 4 planters in Repton. Three small ones on the triangle by the Cross and one on Willington Road on the grass verge near the Vicarage.

Progress is being made on refurbishing Broomhills Pavilion. This will include new doors, window frames, kitchen, redecorating and providing a defibrillator.

A kissing gate is to be purchased to replace the broken access to Broomhills Playing Field from Well Lane.

A meeting is to be held with representatives from the Highways Department to discuss the condition of the Cross itself and the surrounding island. Road safety concerns around the primary school would be looked into by the Highways representative at the same time.

Six applications were received for the Repton Parish Council elections in May. As the number of councillors is eleven, there will be no election, all six will stand, and a co-option process convened. It makes a great deal of difference as to what we can achieve for the village if we have a full Council, so please consider whether you would be willing to stand.
