Issue - meetings

The minutes of the meeting held on 4 March 2014 were agreed as a correct record.

Matters Arising

There had been a reorganisation of the ranger/warden functions at The Crown Estate. They now had their own visitor management scheme which included a leaflet aimed at promoting responsible dog walking. The Borough Council would continue to promote their Dog Walking Code of Conduct leaflet at their parks and countryside sites and at locations such as libraries but not at The Crown Estate.

Richard Walton was due to meet with Gail Siddall, Team Manager Environmental Protection on the 9 October 2014 in relation to the issue of fly-tipped rubbish on private roads where Byways (Public Rights of Way) were running over the top of them.  

The Borough Council could clear flytipping or serve notice to the landowner but were more likely to clear the rubbish. There had been a prosecution and fine recently and the possibility of cameras on site was being considered.

Footpath 15 was referred to in the minutes of the previous meeting (Minute 20, page 5); this needed to be referred to as Bracknell Footpath 15 in Jennett’s Park.

Hugh, Mike and Peter were interested in joining Huddle and receiving training. Sharon would like to be removed from Huddle. Rose would look into this.
