Agenda item

To receive the report from the Deputy Town Clerk.

The Committee received and considered the report of the Deputy Town Clerk which outlined comments listed in the resident’s survey which related to the Committee.

Members were pleased to see that the majority of respondents had not made any negative comments about the Halls, Cemeteries or Allotments. Only eight comments from over two hundred responses.

Members were aware of the anti-social issues suffered at Tower Hill Cemetery however, there was agreement that CCTV at the cemetery would go against the private nature of the area and would likely be vandalised. Members asked that Thames Valley Police continue to be informed of problems as it is felt that Tower Hill was no greater effected than other similar areas.

Members asked that consideration be given to the issue of social media posts outlining the issues and how this directly affects residents, perhaps by way of short video including the residents.

The Deputy Town Clerk advised that all the points would be picked up on the “you said we did” posts that will be issued in the New Year.

Resolved:

1.      That, the report be noted and,

2.      That, Officers consider social media posts to highlight issues.
