November Community Council Meeting Notes

1. Minutes agreed for the 3rd October. No sight of the minutes yet in the Post Office.
2. PC Chris Pullen's report.
a. 14 crimes plus 11 ASB's
b. Speed Enforcement to involve 10 dates which will be notified.
Councillors are invited to attend any of the dates. Three councillors had cold feet. Chris was looking for a show of support and unity from councillors.
Colin Bithell CC stated that the dates would prove the facts of the speeding problem rather than the fiction. ( He has no idea at all. Fluorescents every where and he thinks he will get the facts.
Flintshire Highways have exact data that he seems oblivious to, either deliberate or he still has no idea)
Councillor Joe Davies thought the village was not getting value for money from North Wales Police.
Backed by Cllr Sam Shone.
Chris explained how his time is spent between Penyffordd and Higher Kinnerton.
About 20 hours per week for Penyffordd.
Chris works 4 weekends in 5 weeks.
Joe doesn't see Chris because Chris is out 11. 00 pm to 3 am at weekends.
Chris' choice because that's when things are happening.
He spends up to 2 hours a night on foot patrol in Penyffordd when he is here.
Councillors are frustrated at Chris. Chris explains he needs proof and witnesses to book youths.

Clr Sam Shone called Cllr Linda Vidamour naive with regards her small amount of time on the committee. (Shame on you Sam Shone, 2000 speeders a day on your watch)

3. Cllr David Williams' suggestion that an alternative fund be set up for the youth of the village.
This was rejected after Nigel Clerk to The Council took advice. We already have such a fund for the Pen Y Group which Cllr Cindy Hinds helped to set up.

4. Cllr Linda Vidamour brought up the poor state of the children's area by the clinic in Melwood Close. Other children's areas are also poor.

5. Community Notice Board, brought up by Cllr Linda Vidamour. Now fixed says Nigel.
Notices required that are of relevance. One notice has been out of date for 2 years!

6. Cllr Linda Vidamour is to produce a newsletter. We currently have one, once a year.

7. Wrexham UDP. A register of concern with regards extra traffic through our village will be made before the November cut off date. Tom Jones also mention the large increase of traffic that can be expected post Warren Hall. (Our County Councillors heads remain in the sand on this.)

8. Residents in Lower Mountain Road complaining about excessive speeds. Horses and children use this lane.
