Meeting in March, the Conservators could withdraw the request if they considered it advisable. This resolution was passed by 10 votes to 1 10. SUPERINTENDENT’S REPORT a) Riding. The Superintendent reported that Fairholme Riding School was closing down and Mr. Turner of Dane Hill had written asking the Board to consider the transfer of the riding permit to him. After a brief discussion it was agreed that the Riding Committee consisting of Messrs. Gent, Glover and Hardy with the Chairman and Vice Chairman as ex-officio members should consider this application and also look into the question of an increase in fees for riding establishments’ permits for 1979. Mr. Kavanagh stated that he wished to attend the Riding Committee meeting. b) Trees at Duddleswell Cross Roads. The County Engineer had asked that in the interest of road safety the Yew trees at the cross roads be cut down. The Superintendent had met a representative of the County Engineer on site to discuss the problem and had seen various accident reports concerning road traffic accidents at this point. None of the reports had made any mention of the trees. The Board was unanimous that the trees would not be cut down and it was agreed that the County Engineer be asked to consider improving the safety at this corner by the use of more positive road signs. The Superintendent reported that he would shortly be having the hedges cut back so as to improve visibility.
