Beryl Pritchard

We started our meeting with a minute’s silence in memory of Beryl Pritchard, who sadly passed away that day. Beryl was known to many on the Parish Council and our sympathies go to Bob and their family at this very sad time.

IT in Mole Valley

We welcomed Bob Thomas, Brockham resident and Head of IT at Mole Valley to the meeting. He gave a fascinating presentation on the future of IT in Mole Valley. It is intended that 100% of Government Services will be available on line by December 2005. Already certain services can be accessed on line. Did you know that you can report an abandoned car, report housing repairs, watch council and committee meetings via webcast, pay your council tax, rent and parking fines and soon be able to view planning applications via www.molevalley.gov.uk? In one month 4000 people viewed the website and that figure will continue to rise.

Parish Council Budget Plans

October is the month when the Parish Council sets out its budget plans for next year. If anyone has any proposals that require funding from the Parish Council, please contact Celia Plumb on 843471.
