Cllr Burns thanked the Clerk for producing another excellent edition of Helmdon Voice.
4 Finance a) To receive update on the replacement slide quotes from the Clerk and consider instructing the work
Both quotes were reviewed in detail with discussion surrounding whether it would be better to renovate or totally renew the steps and what the best surface for the steps should be.
It was resolved that:
• The Clerk should obtain a second quote from Sutcliffe Play for an infill of stone and bark.
• That Cllr Duncombe would arrange a site visit with LR Brown to discuss the height of the steps under their proposal and to discuss providing new steps instead of reusing the existing ones.
The meeting closed at 8:25pm
