The Glaven Valley Benefice CLEY PARISH COUNCIL
Home	Blakeney	Cley	Wiveton	Glandford	Letheringsett

Richard Kelham is on holiday and, in past years, when I have taken the meeting during his holiday, attendance has been very small - so we were all delighted and surprised to welcome about a dozen parishioners to the meeting. It seems that Di Drum, our new Clerk, had suggested to some allotment holders that we would be discussing issues regarding the allotments, as well as Planning applications and day to day matters. It is certainly good to see the enthusiasm of the allotment holders and to hear their plans. A representative came from the Police and reported only small crimes locally.

It was great to see so many parishioners there and I hope they too enjoyed the meeting. Our next meeting is 7th September - we normally meet on the first Tuesday of every month, except in August. Di Dann feels that people in the Village would enjoy attending our meetings and we have, therefore, set up two Parish Council information sessions at the Village Hall Social Club on Tuesday 28th September and Tuesday 26th October, starting at 7pm and lasting 2 hours. Why not come and learn more about the work of Parish Councillors, about planning applications, raising matters for discussion and learning what our work covers? There will be opportunities to talk about issues of concern to the village and how you can become involved. If you would hie to secure a place, just ring Richard (740186) or me on 740404. The discussions mil be informal, but I hope very interesting, and we would most certainly welcome more support and input from you.

Road works and scaffolding seem to abound at the moment - and it is infuriating to keep coming to the signs requesting 20mph on roads that have, supposedly, been resurfaced - and quite clearly have not had any attention for years. We have no notification of further work and the sign stating the High Street would be closed for 2 weeks seems to have disappeared. Let us hope the holiday traffic will now be able to have a clear run through the Village -though clearly it would seem a number of drivers are not used to narrow roads or making use of the car park.
