Donington on Bain

PCSO's Andrea Cave abd Dean Warrilow joined the councillors at the recent meeting of Donington on Bain Parish Council as there were complaints of speeding traffic, particularly on Station Road and they asked that registration numbers so that the offenders could be contacted. They were also asked to look at a vehicle which regularly parks on the footway causing pedestrians to have to step onto the road as they cannot pass, particularly with prams and pushchairs. The clerk was asked to write and ask for a hedge to be cut back as it was causing an obstruction and a problem for pedestrians using the footway.
A holly bush in a garden hedge was still obscuring a street light creating a very dark area on Enfield Road and East Lindsey District Council was to be reminded of this. The Lincolnshire County Council Countryside Officer was dealing with the issue of cattle causing promlems for walkers on a public footpath.
Cllr Ian Pickering signed his Declaration of Acceptance of Office and was welcomed as e new member by chairman Cllr Mrs Sally Cosgrove and it was agreed that the vacancy on the Harold True Almshouse Trust would be on the agenda for the next meeting following receipt of a letter from Mr Philip Crowley confirming his resignation as a Nominative Trustee.
Councillors can now be reimbursed at 40p per mile , the East Lindsey District Council approved rate when travelling on council business it was agreed.
