Thanks to members of the Parish council for their attendance at council meetings and work outside of the meetings.
I would like to thank the Parish clerk for his work administering council business and preparing accounts for audit.
May I also thank District Councillor Mr Hampson and County Councillor David Booth both for their attendance at our meetings and the valuable advice that they have been able to give to us.
For those here who are uncertain as to who is who on the council I would like to introduce them and say briefly what they do.
Mr Brian Hampson District Councillor
Mr David Booth County Councillor
Mr Mike Moody Parish clerk
Mr Francis Liddington cemetery
Mr Jonathan Crowe footpaths/ shared
Mrs Mary Fox lamps, litter, filing
Mr John Rickman chairman
Mr Paul Barnett Play area/ shared
Old School - demolish and replace
Land Rover / Aston Martin - various incremental applications - progress on traffic calming at junction.
Windy Ridge 16 houses - refused
Currently not in office but expected to be re-instated when the central heating is commissioned.
10-11am every Saturday morning with councillors taking turns. We have managed to keep this going despite the disruption caused by the renovation of the Hall.
The Gaydon precept this year is £6250, an increase of 4 percent over last year. We have made provision for a grant to the Village Hall for its renovation project, and allowed for some capital expenditure in the play area to meet new EU safety regulations.
No flooding this year. Hope for new and larger pipe down the Banbury Road as part of the roundabout deal.
Councillors' Areas of Responsibility
I will ask the individual councillors to speak on the areas they each is responsible for.

FOOTPATHS - Paul Barnett
LITTER, LIGHTS, parish furniture - Mary Fox
