ALLOCATION OF COMMITTEES
The following Councillors were elected to serve on following Committees.
a. Finance – Councillors J. Berry, B. Norton, N. Carver, K. Hayler, R.
Brennan and N. Clark.
b. Planning - Cllr J. Berry, Cllr B. Norton, Cllr P. Webb, Cllr N. Carver, Cllr

The Chairman proposed the cessation of the Development Issues and Amenities
Committee. The major issues were either getting nearer to completion, or are on
the "outstanding issues" list of the main agenda. The other major issues were
now part of the "Parish Plan" Steering Group and they should pursue. The
Chairman would continue to provide a report on "Development and Amenities
Issues" all the time that there are issues to report and would continue to pursue a
few minor matters on the list. He proposed that “lead parish councillors” be
appointed to liaise and develop issues under the categories Building Community
Page 1 of 16
Life, Young people, Older people, Environment, Business and Information
Technology. Under Building Community Life the task would be to liaise with
village organizations and people and identify where improvements were needed
and assist with the identification of funding sources if needed . For Young People
to build on the current work of making the Youth Club vibrant and sustainable in
association with the Ashington Youth Club committee and our Neighbourhood
Wardens and similarly assist any other village groups dealing with the
requirements for Young People. An aim would be to create a Youth Parish
Council. Under Business the lead councillor may assist with identifying areas of
sponsorship for village events and organizations, by contacting the Ashington
Business Consortium or providing retail expertise where needed to village shops.
On Older People it would be identifying the needs of our more elderly residents
and their safety concerns. For Environment it would entail looking out for unemptied litter /dog bins, blocked ditches and drains, non working street lights,
potholes in roads / footpaths, damaged road signs and the regular inspection of
“play area equipment “ and reporting issues to the Clerk to follow up. Information
Technology would be gaining improvements and accessibility to our website and
expanding email communications within the village for items such as “crime
alerts“ so that more people were able to be aware and more quickly.
The Chairman clarified that Councillors would not be expected to report to
Council on a monthly basis but could bring items to the Council’s attention if
necessary. The schedule of “lead parish councilors“ as previously circulated was
agreed by all present.
APPOINTMENT OF REPRESENTATIVES TO OUTSIDE BODIES

SCHEDULE OF MEETINGS FOR 2007-2008
The Clerk had circulated a proposed list of dates. Agreed by all.
CODE OF CONDUCT
The Clerk had circulated copies of the new Code and asked that the Council
consider paragraph 12(2) which is not mandatory for Parish Councils but gives
councillors with a prejudicial interest the same rights as members of the public to
speak at a meeting on the issue and then leave before the main discussion and
vote.
The Council passed a resolution adopting the Model Code of Conduct including
paragraph 12(2). Proposed by Cllr Hayler, seconded by Cllr Stillwell and agreed
by all.
ANNUAL REVIEW & APPROVAL OF STANDING ORDERS
Five minor amendments were recommended: addition of an explanation for ‘text
in bold font’, amendment to para. 33(a) & 58 to insert date of adoption of the new
Code of Conduct (see above), para 29(f) amend to ‘shall not have the effect’,
amend para 33(b) to make bold ‘or in such a manner as to bring the Council into
disrepute’. In addition Cllr Norton proposed that para 41 ‘Sealing of Documents’
Page 2 of 16
be amended as the Council does not possess a document seal. He suggested
‘sealed’ be replaced with executed, ‘sealing’ be replaced with execution, ‘seal’
replaced with execute. Clerk to re-word and check with Cllr Norton. Seconded by
Cllr Stillwell and agreed by all.

C/F
Item 29 Layby at Shopping Area
HDC’s s106 panel will meet in June and be asked to approve the use of s106
Transport funds (including AS/5/98 and DC/06/1100) for the construction of the
layby. The works cannot be scheduled until funds from DC/06/1100 have been
paid to HDC by the Developer and the Council has yet to receive a copy of the
s106 agreement for DC/06/1100.
C/F
Item 32 Handover of Persimmon Homes land - balancing pond area, part of
western tree boundary and various pieces of verge in Covert Mead.
And
Item 33
Persimmons Homes re: land west of Footpath 2606.
Persimmon Homes’ solicitor informed the Council’s solicitor that they were in
discussions with Wimpey Homes about the division of the £38k lump sum that
was due to be paid to the Council. The Chairman stressed to Roger Arthur that
HDC enter into these agreements but fail to see them through and a
representative from HDC’s Legal Department should follow up on this matter.
Roger Arthur informed the Council that he had enquired about this matter and
was expecting a response within the next few weeks.

Item 110 A24 Noise
WSCC will re-surface the northern carriageway of the A24 from Malthouse Lane
to beyond the southern flyover in 2010/2011. It was not possible to bring any
further forward in the works programme as other villages with non-safety related
works were not prepared to have their schemes delayed to allow the A24
resurfacing to proceed at an earlier date. County Councillor Wilkinson asked the
Council if it wished to go-ahead with re-surfacing of The Sands – the cost to
WSCC is £38k. It was unanimously agreed that there was no point in delaying
this work as it would not enable the A24 resurfacing to be brought forward and it
was a scheme that had been delayed many times and was well overdue for
attention.
D
Item 119 Affordable Rural Housing
The Survey achieved a response rate of 31%. Copies of the report had been
circulated to Councillors. The report concluded that 13-19 low cost affordable
houses are needed in Ashington and there was little evidence for a need for
sheltered housing for the elderly. The Rural Housing Enabler was meeting with
HDC on May 16th to discuss the Rural Housing Survey Programme and will ask
them what next steps they wish to take. Andrew Smith from English Rural
Housing Association (an experienced housing association which specializes in
developing affordable housing in rural areas) is very keen to do a village walk of
all the sites that were suggested.
KD
C/F
Item 123 Landscaping contract
The Chairman & Clerk walked around the areas included in the contract with
Mark Adsett to confirm that the exact specification had been included and priced
accordingly. The cost (which included start up costs ) remained at £5125pa and
£1320 from the WSCC grass cutting budget would be diverted to the landscaping
budget to cover the extra cost as agreed at the April meeting. Agreed by all.
KD
D
Item 44 Warminghurst Close Play area
The equipment was currently being re-painted. Some damage to the wooden
ramp was reported to the Clerk (wood rot, split steps etc) and upon inspection
and subsequent discussion with the contractor it was recommended that a new
wooden ramp be installed. The contractor could not give a cost as it was
dependant on whether some parts of the ramp could be re-used. As this was a
safety issue and the RoSPA inspection was due in June the Clerk asked the
contractor to proceed. The contractor would also provide an estimate for the
other wooden platforms to be replaced so that it could be included in next years
budget. Agreed byall.
KD
D
Item 133 Annual Report
One of the requirements for Quality Parish Council (QPC) status is that the
Council’s Annual Report is distributed to all households each year. The
Chairman, Clerk & Cllr Hayler had drafted an Annual Report (circulated to
Councillors) based on the Chairman’s report to the Annual Assembly and
containing the Council’s Receipts & Payments accounts for 06/07 (yet to be
approved by Council). The Annual Report could be printed and distributed by the
Page 4 of 16
Newsletter publisher for £289. The Council had budgeted £300 for QPC training
and could allocate the costs to this budget. Councillors were asked to approve
the draft report and the cost of printing & distribution. Proposed by Cllr Stillwell,
seconded by Cllr Webb and agreed by all.
KD
D
Item 134 Newsletter
The Chairman & Clerk are gathering articles for the first full ‘new Newsletter’ due
for distribution in June. An electronic version of the Newsletter could be put on
the Council’s website each quarter at a cost of £45 per edition (£180 per annum).
This cost was not included in the budget for this year but this addition was
necessary for QPC Status. Proposed by Cllr Norton seconded by Cllr Brennan
and agreed by all.
D
Item 135 Parking Post, Meiros Way
The existing post was damaged by a vehicle and requires replacing. It is
proposed to purchase a replacement post at a cost of £59.99+VAT. Proposed by
Cllr Norton, seconded by Cllr Wood and agreed by all.
A local resident suggested that the post be moved back further as it was difficult
for vehicles to turn around without hitting the post. Cllr Wood stated that the post
was some 5 feet back from the edge of the road and that in his opinion it was far
enough back.
KD
To list
Item 79 Bridleway - Malthouse Lane to Ashington Village
Mary Davis has suggested an alternative route from Malthouse Lane to the
stream and in front of the vicarage if permission could not be obtained from the
owner of Church Farm for a bridleway across farm land. This would involve
removing a squeeze barrier. The Chairman outlined the history concerning
footpaths 2611 and 2613. Originally the developer of Church Close had stated
that they would upgrade the footpaths. They then reneged on the issue and the
Parish Council paid several thousands of pounds to have them upgraded
following the results of the Village Appraisal in 1999 when 60% of residents had
complained about their state which was often shin deep in mud. The Parish
Council then with the aid of a small grant from WSCC installed Squeeze Barriers
at both ends .Councillors expressed concern that horses would churn up the
footpath that the Council had funded and that by removing the squeeze barrier
(at some cost to the Council) the route may be abused by motorcyclists. The
Council wanted to avoid the footpath turning into mud following use by
horseriders. It was proposed to have one last attempt to create a bridleway via
Church Farm and if unsuccessful to explore this possible alternative route. Clerk
to contact the owner of Church Farm.
