PLANNING UPDATE<br />

The Parish Council have just published their agenda for the meeting on 29th<br />

November and it confirms that they WILL now be discussing outstanding planning<br />

applications<br />

EDITOR<br />

Those with an interest should attend the meeting to ensure that the Parish Council is<br />

aware of their viewpoints in responding to Herefordshire Planning department.<br />

The advice given in the article is still valid that people should let the Planners know<br />

their opinions as well as from the PC<br />

“Clerk Resignation?”<br />

13th Nov 2017<br />

It appears that the “resignation” of the Parish Clerk may not be all it seems and there is more to<br />

the whole thing that presented by the Parish Council.<br />

As the PC is at the moment not quorate and unable to function we will have to await the next<br />

quorate meeting to have questions answered<br />

Did she resign, of her own choice? Is there a connection between hers and the mass resignations<br />

of Parish Councillors?<br />

Questions that the community need answers to as it is after all THEIR Parish Council<br />

Watch this space for answers<br />

Enquirer On The Case<br />

From Mary Barnett ex Clerk Cradley Parish Council<br />

27th Nov 2017<br />

It has been brought to my notice that reference is being<br />

made in several places to my resignation from the Parish<br />

Council.<br />

It was not a “resignation” but an “enforced resignation”<br />

that took place.<br />

Matters regarding this situation are ongoing.<br />

APPLICATIONS FOR NEW CLERK<br />

It has been brought to the Enquirers attention that a Parishioner contacted the HALC offices to<br />

apply for the Clerk vacancy on the Parish Council. When making contact as instructed on the PC<br />

website they were told by Lynda Wilcox (HALC) that as from yesterday applications were not being<br />

received and therefore could not send out any forms to the person in question.<br />

TWO QUESTIONS ARISE:<br />

1) Why was the advert on the website not changed to show a closing date to inform potential<br />

applicants ?<br />

2) Who specified the closing date and when was it specified ?<br />

COME ON PC<br />

Communicate with the community. It’s not that difficult is it to be open, truthful and transparent<br />
