Borough Councillors Reports: We were welcomed to the new hall and thanks were given to the parish council for the small contribution given towards the new tables. Investigative work is taking place to try and replace the missing Salcott-cum-Virley sign with surplus funds and all the parish councillors were in agreement with this. CBC Draft Local Plan will go before the inspector about now. The importance of the public consultation on the Mobile Libraries Service was expressed and all are encouraged to take part in the survey at libraries.essex.gov.uk
