February 11th 2014

The Antony/Wilcove Parish Council met on February 11th, 2014, to discuss
several important community matters, including updates on the new play
area, local signage, and proposed developments.

Community Updates & Projects

• New Play Area: The play equipment is scheduled for installation on
  February 26th, 2014. An official opening ceremony for the play area
  will take place on Sunday, March 9th, 2014.
• Memorial Bench: A memorial bench in the name of Stephen Watts, a
  former Parish Councillor, will be placed in the play park at Antony.
  The Clerk will investigate the ordering and cost of the bench and
  plaque.
• Development Plan Meeting: A successful community meeting was held
  on January 25th to gather input for the development plan. A suggestion
  was made for a recycling centre to be placed at Fiscard, and the Clerk
  will approach Torpoint Town Council regarding this idea.

Planning & Local Environment

• Tregantle Corner Signage: The Parish Council will not grant
  permission for "The Adventure Bay Surf School" to re-instate signage
  at Tregantle Corner, following numerous complaints about signs
  distracting motorists. Discussions are ongoing with Cornwall Council
  Highways regarding a professionally made directional sign and the
  placement of a 'No Advertising' sign in the area.
• Proposed Jetty Extension: Torpoint Town Council has confirmed
  their support for a meeting to be held in Wilcove with the developers
  of the jetty once the Planning Application has been submitted. The
  Clerk will confirm the expected submission date.
• Solar Farm: St John Parish Council has informed the council that
  they have no objection to the proposed solar farm planning
  application.
• Planning Applications: There were no new planning applications to
  discuss at this meeting.
• Tregantle Car Park: The Clerk will continue to pursue the matter
  of the Parish Council taking on the car park at Tregantle.

Financial Matters

• Accounts for payment were approved as presented, covering items such
  as salaries, flowers, meeting expenses, and plants.

General Information

• Police Report: The January police report indicated nil incidents
  for Antony and Wilcove.
• Adverse Weather: No incidents were reported within Antony/Wilcove
  due to recent adverse weather conditions.
