2).    Election of Chairman / Vice Chairman:-

Councillor D. Hall was nominated and re-elected as Vice-Chairman for the ensuing year.

3).    Minutes of the meeting held on Wednesday March 6th 2024:-

The minutes, which had previously been noted by the Council, were agreed and signed.

4).   Budget update 2024/25:

Prior to the meeting, the Clerk circulated an updated report detailing balances and expenditure to date against the budget.

This report was received and accepted by members.

5).   To consider the Deeds and Insurances:

Members considered the updated deeds and insurances report provided by the Clerk and were confident all was in order.

6).    Consideration of Grant Requests:

  • Positive Mindset Counselling: Whilst the committee noted the importance of the service, the specific nature of the funding would only target a very low number of individuals within the community, via a commercial organisation and as such considered not a viable use of the funding.
  • Eccleshall First Responders: the grant is a request for a contribution towards the installation of a new defibrillator on the Overton Manor estate. It was resolved to recommend approval of a £500 donation towards the purchase of the new unit.

The grant from What’s On Eccleshall will be considered at the Parish Council meeting in July, as this was where it was last discussed.

7).   Items for next meeting:-

Any items for the next meeting can be forwarded to the Clerk.

8).  Date of next meeting:-  Wednesday 4th September 2024, following the Planning committee meeting.

There being no further business, the Chairman declared the meeting closed at 8.30pm.
