All comments have been noted and incorporated as appropriate. The 6 draft reports will be handed over, together with the action plans and a covering letter, to the Parish Council Chairman within the next week. (Final Report and Action Plan to follow).

PLANNING, CONSERVATION AND THE ENVIRONMENT

It is hoped to have this report completed next week.

DRAFT ACTION PLANS

Some aspects of the layout may need to be changed but it is hoped that these will be handed over to the Parish Council by the end of next week. Funding information will be omitted from this draft as more research will be needed before this is ready for publication. However, the draft document will give the PC an indication of the size and scope of the Plan.

SG members read through the draft Action Plans. It was decided that actions already in progress should be marked to reflect the fact. There will also be cross reference throughout the document when actions are repeated under other WG headings. Minor alterations and additions were made as appropriate as well as the following suggestions:

COMMUNICATIONS AND LOCAL GOVERNMENT

The Electoral Reform Society should be contacted for information.

BUSINESS, AGRICULTURE &TOURISM

As brown tourist signs are costly, landowners should be asked to contribute to their purchase.

The publication of a dedicated Salhouse tourist leaflet should be considered; this could be distributed through the Tourist Board.

RECREATION AND LEISURE

Footpath 14 should be noted in brackets, where appropriate.

A circular route to the Broad would be a new route, not a reinstated walk.

A new footpath map should be published in SAGA.

The Youth Club Committee should be involved in any discussions re a youth shelter.

LIFELONG LEARNING

Interested volunteers should initiate correspondence with regard to any requests for Adult Education provision within the village.

TRANSPORT, HIGHWAYS & VILLAGE INFRASTRUCTURE

Safe Routes to School should be mentioned re Footpath 14.

National Grid should be added to Actioning authority re Station Road bridge.

Sec’s note: This item is still under debate.
