1. Playgrounds and Playing Fields are in good order. It was agreed by all to pay the invoice received for work up to date at Salcott playground and field and to note that alternative arrangements have now been made for both the field and playground inspection and maintenance.
   The Community Group continue to carry out good work for us with clearance at the church green area, verges along Malting Road and St Ives footpath.
2. ECC Highways Devolution Pilot Scheme was discussed and although too late to offer our parish council for this scheme at this stage it was agreed that we wish to support the County Councillor in his attempts to resolve matters of certain small jobs not getting done owing to prioritization. We will email to say that some of the suggested works are not suitable for us but others are, the invoicing is a concern and we will request more details on how all this will be implemented.
3. CCTV Camera options were discussed and it was agreed that a pole and sign will be erected soon.
4. Painted Village Signs were looked at with a view to repainting and it was agreed that we should have Great Wigborough and Salcott-cum-Virley painted this time at a cost of approx. £250 each and take look at the other two in due course.
5. Actions and Reminder List – updated and to include that we will request Essex Highways to dig culverts in two areas that are prone to flooding and also attend to poor road surfacing in a section of Peldon Road.
