  1. Lengthsman progress
    • Work sheets made available to Council on request.
    • Public (Cllr.W-H), had made a request to remove fallen branch from Milson Kiosk. This had been done.
    • The trial footpath initiative to replace stiles with kissing gates provided by the CMFA is scheduled to take place on the 26th Cllr D.Jones has now collected them, and reports that he is very impressed by the quality of these items. The CMFA are going to assist with the installation on this first set.

    • None

 

  1. Dogs fouling footpaths.

Cllr DJ reported a number of recent incidents. 4 lots on the Jubilee garden, plus additional down the track, and more along the Sturt track. Given the size, it looks to be a small dog. However, the waste bin is nearly always full come emptying time.

 

 

  1. Riparian responsibility.
    • Cllr D. Jones has removed a large quantity of fallen timber from the river downstream of the bridge. There is still much more at Shakenhurst that is likely to cause future problems. David reports that whilst the estate manager seems willing to listen, little has been done. However, he suggests we leave things as they are, rather than escalate the issue, which may alienate the estate.
