2. Continue planning and writing the Parish Newsletter
iNFACT and their distribution
The Parish Council wish to remain as transparent as possible with its work and to this end they will continue to keep this web site alive and produce iNFACT newsletters, about four in number, each year. In addition from time to time, hot news will be found in ROUNDABOUT HERE, in COMMUNITY MONTHLY and other local newspapers and publications. | |

3. Liasing with MK Landscape and building developers
concerning adoption of certain unclear ownership areas and
the handover of the reserve sites
The Parish Council is currently investigating up to 16 sites within the Parish whose ownership and current maintenance is unclear.
This is because the developers have failed to correctly hand over and have adopted these pieces of land. We want to get this ongoing problem sorted as soon as possible.
We are currently seeking solutions via MK Council Landscaping & Open Spaces Officers and our elected Ward Councillors.
Project continues: | |

4. PARISH TAKES ON THE MANAGEMENT OF ALLOTMENTS
There are established allotments at Kents Hill, and we expect the new Monkston Park allotments to be made available in summer 2010.
We will be establishing a management group for each site composed of allotment holders.
New rules of tenure and rent will be established in due course. We are taking names for each newsite, please contact the clerk
The Monkston allotment site is still not forthcoming from the developers, (Taylor Wimpy) although we have heard that they have gone out ot tender for the work necessary to bring the allotment into a working entity. Please don't hold your breath! | |

6. NEW NOTICE BOARDS
2 new notice boards have purchased to replace the old boards on Lindisfarne Drive, Monkston and near to the nursing homes/post box in lower Kents Hill. This will mean that all our community boards will be brought to a common standard. | |
