Cllr Griffiths told the meeting that the Goldsithney Transport Management Plan was now in the hands of Cornwall Council after going out to public consultation. The Parish Council could do no more but wait on the design team at Cornwall Council. Cllrs. were very frustrated at the time it was taking to implement but the plan would certainly slow the traffic down entering and leaving the village as well as in Fore Street itself. Cllr Griffiths suggested that the village should form a speed watch programme. Cornwall Councillor John Martin addressed the meeting stating that he would shortly be attending a meeting on September 28th with the Head of Highways at Cornwall Council and would certainly discuss the Goldsithney Transport Plan.

Cornwall Councillors Report – Cllr John Martin

|
| 09/23/14 | Cllrs Reports:
Cllr Jago stated that there needs to be a sign higher up at the bottom of the village so drivers could see it more clearly to give way to oncoming traffic. Cllr Griffiths- had reported to Cornwall Council a flattened bollard at the bottom of the village in the main road where the road narrows. He had inspected Well Lane Goldsithney there could be the need to re hang the gate at the entrance to the Lane as it was the Parish’s responsibility. He would assess after the contractors had been to cut back the foliage. Cllr. Trevena – was concerned about the gully that had been exposed after St Aubyn’s Estate had cut down 5 trees at Tregurtha View which were acting as a fence/barrier. It was now a hazard and who was responsible for erecting a new fence Cornwall Council or St Aubyn’s Estate. Cllr Brede- Wanted a contact for the Skate Park committee. Who was responsible for the footpath /area off Fore street at the bottom end of the village . Cllrs thought it could be Live West as they should be reminded of their responsibility as land owners for the up keep of it . Cllr Pascoe – was concerned that all councillors were not aware of the Development Boundaries within the Perranuthnoe Neighbourhood Plan. |

Projects, Issues & Updates
Car park & Toilets Perranuthnoe – Cornwall Council black bin at the Car Park. Unfortunately, Cornwall Council will no longer provide and empty the bin at the carpark once the transfer of the carpark and toilet block to the Parish Council has taken place the options to keep the bin were 1. Use existing 660L – the cost of cleansing would be £778.30 for a full year. Plus the re-charge to the council for the bin, but due to the condition of the bin it maybe a nominal fee (£100) 2. Parish purchases a new bin(s) through us, which Rolf has suggested would be 2 x 360 Nexus bins, which works out to be: £1,174.32 per bin (cleansing only = £540.72), which includes purchase and installation. The total for two bins will be = £2,348.64 in year 1 (cleansing only would be £1,081.44) A discussion followed which resulted in the councillors voting unanimously to remove the Cornwall Council bin from the carpark as it was mainly being used by holiday homes to deposit their domestic waste. Councillors would revisit at a later date to possibly review the situation. The Council would still empty the black bin on their land at Perranuthnoe Beach. Roof at Bus Stop Fore Street Goldsithney – Cllr Collins & Griffiths to get costings for repair. Goal Nets – St Pirans Playing Field – Cllr Colins to get costings for new ones. Finance Sub Committee – Report from meeting held on the 30/08/23 In the reserves St Pirans Hall should be listed as Refurbishment not Rebuild New web site should be removed from capitol budget and located in working budget VAT position clarified on any potential future income from the car park Propose to ring fence car park revenue in our reserves. Cllr Linton has looked into two options for investment . |

The meeting closed at 9.30pm but was reopened at 9.33 as Councillors had not resolved to accept the rent increase on the Parish Office and the payment was on this month’s payment schedule.. It was discussed at the August Parish Council meeting but not approved. This was a large increase approximately 85%, from the St Pirans Hall Management Committee.
However, councillors felt that it was Important to keep the office for a number of reasons a) to have a focal point for the Parish b) a working environment for the Parish Clerk and c) a place where councillors could hold meetings.
It was proposed, seconded and agreed reluctantly to approve the annual rental charge for the office at St Pirans Hall which would now be £1300 for 2023/2024.
The meeting closed at 9.38pm
