MIDSOMER NORTON LIFE<br />
WELCOME FROM THE MAYOR<br />
H<br />
ello everyone and welcome to the<br />
latest edition of Midsomer Norton<br />
<strong>Life</strong>. I hope you are managing to keep well<br />
now that the regulations regarding the Covid<br />
19 virus are being lifted. It certainly helps that<br />
the vast majority of people have received their<br />
vaccinations and I hope that those who haven't<br />
yet managed to organise it, can do so soon.<br />
Hopefully, when you receive this copy of<br />
Midsomer Norton <strong>Life</strong>, the weather will be a bit<br />
better than it is at the time of writing this. We're<br />
just going through the batch of wind and rain<br />
storms following on from those few days when it<br />
was scorching hot. Not too good for those of us<br />
who are trying to get some gardening done!<br />
Keeping you up to date with the Town Park,<br />
unfortunately the Lions had to cancel the<br />
opening of the Sensory Garden due to the<br />
Covid regulations, but they have now been<br />
able to reorganise it for 11th September at 12<br />
noon. So, if you would like to come along to<br />
this event, please do. We have had a number of<br />
organisations contacting us about holding events<br />
in the Town Park and they are all being arranged.<br />
If you are part of a group that would like to meet<br />
up in the Town Park for an event, please contact<br />
the Town Trust to get it organised.<br />
I expect you have noticed that several dropped<br />
kerbs have been installed around the town. This<br />
makes life so much easier for wheelchair and<br />
mobility scooter users.<br />
My Deputy Mayor, Cllr Mike Moxham, has<br />
had a number of comments from members of<br />
the public about the state of the old brewery<br />
building at the Welton, Bibby and Baron site on<br />
Station Road. With a construction background,<br />
Mike was the best person to contact Welton,<br />
Bibby and Baron about this and they have<br />
responded saying they intend to carry out a<br />
structural survey soon. So, that sounds like good<br />
news.<br />
Thank you all for taking the time to look through<br />
this copy of Midsomer Norton <strong>Life</strong> where you<br />
will find lots of information about what is going<br />
on in the town. Take care and enjoy the rest of<br />
your <strong>Autumn</strong>.<br />
Lynda Robertson,<br />
Mayor of Midsomer Norton Town Council
