Budget 2019/2020:
Posted: Tue, 08 Jan 2019 12:59 by Trevor Davies
The draft budget for 2019/2020 is 13.5% greater than the Budget for 2018/2019 which is mainly due to higher known or additional costs that will be introduced at, or in the case of the 23% increase for power supplies, before the start of the next financial year, and to the spectre of unknown contingencies such as gully cleansing, maintenance and weed control.
Despite the reorganisation of local government in Northamptonshire and the dire financial state of the County Council, the Parish Council has been advised that it can expect to receive the annual contribution of £498 towards the cutting of the highway verges in 2019. The Parish Council will review the draft budget at its Meeting on 14th January when the Precept for 2019/2020 will also be set.

Footway Lighting
Posted: Tue, 08 Jan 2019 12:40 by Trevor Davies
The Parish Council is responsible for the 57 lights around the village. If you notice a light that is not working please report its location to the Clerk. The columns will carry a number between 1 and 57 for further ease of identification. Those lights that are bracketed to telegraph poles do not have numbers on the poles. The number is not so clearly visible but can be found on the box to which the light is attached. Faults are reported for remedial action to the Parish Council's Lighting Contractor. More »
