The Parish Council held their monthly meeting on 11th August 2008 at the Link on Cliffe Avenue and as a result there are several news worthy items. We will be hosting a Green Initiatives display in Baildon Library starting on September 8th 2008. Read more about it here. The Parish Council are to financially support Baildon Link in their plans to get Lottery funding for the new zero carbon Community Centre. Read more about it here. The Parish Council have agreed to start the recruitment process for an Environmental Warden employed by Baildon Parish Council. Read more about it here. Further to £1,000 given to the Baildon Village Pre-School group at their July meeting under the Parish Council Small Grant Scheme the Parish Council decided to donate £1,800 to allow the group to complete the work. The Parish Council provided this money from their recreation budget and are keen to improve play facilities for children in Baildon. They feel that this group, which has been running for many years, will benefit from the new outside play space this will provide.
Many people have expressed concern about the state of weeds around Baidon and this was also commented on by the judge during his tour around the village with Baildon in Bloom. The Parish Council understand that changes are soon to be made in the method and equipment used to combat weeds and hope that this will improve the situation.
After the Parish Council reported the fact that the Brookhill bench was broken and sometimes turned round (!?) Bradford have replaced it with one that is now bolted to the ground. Notices have been posted about the Baildon South ward vacancy following the resignation of Stephen Heaton. Read more here. |
