New Parish Council Buildings- NEW BUILDINGS DEVELOPMENT GROUP. The Clerk talked through the supporting paper and the changes that had been discussed and agreed by the group to be put forward at todays meeting. To get to this decision an overview of the meetings with the BAQUS and the Architects was given plus the processes the group had taken up to this point. It had been decided that the risks were too high to move forward with both the café and the new office building, as originally planned plus funding would be difficult to get at this time for the café. Whereas funding for the new office building/meeting space/youth space would be easier to secure and a more achievable project with a range of advantages for all. An alternative for the café was discussed and APC hope to have a plan of what this could look like in the next week or so. More information will follow when available. After discussion the following was agreed. RESOLUTION: Cllr. Verrinder PROPOSED that work be halted on the original plans for the café, but proceed with the new office building as previously agreed. The office will progress the café idea separately, Cllr. Hall SECONDED and ALL AGREED
