The Network Rail plenary meeting with the new area office was due to take place on 29 August.\u00a0 The aim was to secure the same level of commitment from the new NR team as from the old.\u00a0 It was frustrating to have to go over the same ground again, but a commitment has been secured a commitment from the CEO of the Council to support us. \u00a0 SH reported that there was still a lot of noise, and trees were being taken out.\u00a0 The recently repaired potholes are already deteriorating; potholes are now very large. \u00a0(District Cllr O\u2019Brien reminded the meeting that the former area office of NR had committed to repairing them when all the work (as defined by them) was finished.)\u00a0 SH reported there was still a lot of shouting, including at night, and the access track on the housing side was being bulldozed and relaid.\u00a0 The outcome of the meeting would be reported at the next meeting.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>POLICE REPORT \u2013 there was none.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>MINUTES OF THE LAST MEETING<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; This was agreed as a true record pro RW sec AE.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>UPDATE ON MATTERS ARISING<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Village gates.<\/strong>&nbsp; We were unsuccessful in our bid for funding.&nbsp; The feedback was that, as essentially the gates are a traffic calming scheme, the project was not really within the grant&#8217;s parameters, and also we did have concrete approval from Highways. &nbsp;We will continue with the project and look for funding elsewhere.&nbsp; AE is kindly pursuing the Highways approval with Jane Newman, which can be covered by set-aside funds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Grindleford News.<\/strong>&nbsp; It was agreed all in favour that this should be published three times a year, with an eye on the Gallop, the Goat and Christmas, and the editors should get \u00a3250 as a token payment in appreciation. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Road closure.<\/strong>&nbsp; The surface on Bridge Lane is now poor and the Council will need to resurface it.&nbsp; There was some concern about the timing of buses restarting (which were superseded by the road reopening early).&nbsp; AE pointed that a road closure in Sheffield had been well managed with temporary CCTV.&nbsp; This might be useful for future road closures. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>OTHER MATTERS<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Business resilience<\/strong>.&nbsp; It was agreed to look into this further, Clerk to provide some information on a policy to cover it.&nbsp;<br><strong>PDNPA Local plan.<\/strong>&nbsp; &nbsp;PPPF had recommended that Councils arrange a separate date the usual Council meeting to discuss this, as it was important for villages in the Peak Park to consider it properly.&nbsp; AB suggested that this extra meeting should be open to residents.&nbsp; A date will be fixed when the plan is published, which could be into next year.&nbsp; AE undertook to try to get a summary for Councillors and also for residents.&nbsp; It would be useful to identify what is in it which is specific to Grindleford.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Flood barriers.<\/strong>&nbsp; Thanks to Cllrs O\u2019Brien and Kirkup for facilitating storage of the 20 flood barriers from Forge Masters at the ABC in Bakewell.&nbsp; These are now in place.&nbsp; There is no immediate deadline to move them. &nbsp;<br><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>MATTERS FOR DECISION\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Council agreed to spend the \u00a32500 compensation from Severn Trent, which had been accepted, on a flood impact assessment.&nbsp; All in favour<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Clerk to send a formal note of thanks to the Grindleford News deliverers who are stepping down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was also noted that Severn Trent contractors had been professional, helpful and efficient.&nbsp; Clerk to write to Mount Pleasant garage for their help with parcels, and to Jim Fearn at DDDC as the bin lorries had been very accommodating. &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul>\n<li>HIGHWAY MATTERS<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Charlotte Cupitt letter.<\/strong>&nbsp;
