APPROVAL OF MAY 2024 MINUTES: Proposed by Val Veal, seconded by Pat Hand. Approved.
MATTERS ARISING: Joss and Julia have met ADC's parks and foreshore manager and agreed that a memorial plaque can be placed on a bench near The Burrells Roundabout beach entrance, commemorating the life of former councillor Liza McKinney.
BEACH NEWS & WEBSITE: Beach News will be distributed from mid July. The website is up to date.
SOCIAL REPORT: Julia reported on the up-coming Sand Dance event later this year. The date has been confirmed for August 17th and posters have been updated in preparation for printing.
Julia has submitted the TENS, risk assessment and open space hire form to ADC and I've had confirmation of receipt etc. She would welcome volunteers.
We will also have collection buckets on the night.
FINANCIAL REPORT: Val Veal circulated the financial statement in advance of the meeting.
SUB-COMMITTEE REPORTS: Beach Planning updates: It remains relatively quiet with applications.
COUNCILLORS' REPORTS:
Council Committees: Joss is the Adur Chair of Joint Overview and Scrutiny, and Julia sits on Planning and Licensing.
Bins: We've had a few issues with bins this month. Joss asked the officer to take away some of the unlidded bins and all of them disappeared without any replacements. We have been having bin discussions with the new cabinet member for the environment.
Issues with parking bollards at the Fort car park - ADC are looking at alternatives to ensure the boundaries of the Fort are secure (the bollards are currently being knocked over).
Fosb: The flower walk seemed to go well in May. FoSB is planning a strandline/rockpooling event in the summer holidays and maybe a dolphin spotting event with the Sussex Dolphin Project.
Meeting closed at 8.05pm.
