1. The Minutes of the meeting, having been circulated, were approved and signed as a true record of proceedings.
2. Chairman’s report:    Of the items outstanding following the last annual meeting, the footpath in lower Sevenhampton, the seat in Gassons Lane and the water stop tap on the green in Brockhampton had all been repaired.    The parish council had been able to donate £6000 to the Village Hall refurbishment and had also purchased 12 grit bins and a supply of salt as a result of the severe weather.   A stone seat and a tree had also been purchased to commemorate the work that Colin Rosser had done for the parish.   There had been 12 planning applications during the year.   The village hall continued to be fairly well used and BADS had been resurrected with some younger members.   The parish was likely to lose the bus and library service due to the Government cutbacks and, after giving thanks to the clerk and councillors for their work during the year, the chairman urged people to come forward for nomination to the council at the election on 05 May.   
3. Question time:    There were no questions so the chairman closed the meeting.
