Notes from Standing Orders

Disorderly conduct

No person shall obstruct the transaction of business at a meeting or behave offensively or improperly. If, in the opinion of the Chairman, there has been a breach of standing order 10(a) above, the Chairman shall express that opinion and thereafter any councillor (including the Chairman) may move that the person be silenced or excluded from the meeting, and the motion, if seconded, shall be put forthwith and without discussion. If a resolution made in accordance with standing order 10(b) above, is disobeyed, the Chairman may take such further steps as may reasonably be necessary to enforce it and/or he may adjourn the meeting.

Confidential business

Councillors shall not disclose information given in confidence or which they believe, or ought to be aware is of a confidential nature. A councillor in breach of the provisions of standing order 24(a) above may be removed from a committee or a sub-committee by a resolution of the Council. Rescission of previous resolutions

A resolution (whether affirmative or negative) of the Council shall not be reversed within 6 months

except either by a special motion, the written notice whereof bears the names of at least 5

councillors of the Council, or by a motion moved in pursuance of the report or recommendation of a

committee.

When a special motion or any other motion moved pursuant to standing order 11(a) above has been

disposed of, no similar motion may be moved within a further 6 months.

Request for motions to be included in Agenda

In accordance with standing order above, no motion may be moved at a meeting unless it is included in the agenda and the 10 clear days before the next meeting. The Proper Officer may, before including a motion in the agenda received in accordance with standing order 4(a) above, correct obvious grammatical or typographical errors in the wording of the motion. If the Proper Officer considers the wording of a motion received in accordance with standing order 4(a) above is not clear in meaning, the motion shall be rejected until the mover of the motion resubmits it in writing to the Proper Officer in clear and certain language at least 7 clear days before the meeting. If the wording or nature of a proposed motion is considered unlawful or improper, the Proper Officer shall consult with the Chairman of the forthcoming meeting or, as the case may be, the Councillors who have convened the meeting, to consider whether the motion shall be included or rejected in the agenda. Having consulted the Chairman or councillors pursuant to standing order 4(d) above, the decision of the Proper Officer as to whether or not to include the motion in the agenda shall be final. Declaration of interests: The Code of Conduct adopted by this Council in July 2012 states any matter on an agenda of the Council where a person should declare an interest falling within Appendix A (pecurinary), means that person should not take part in any discussion or vote on that matter. Standing Orders 7d state that where members of the public are permitted to make representations, answer questions, and give evidence relating to the business transacted during the public session, so Councillors with a prejudicial interest may do the same but must thereafter leave the room or chamber.

Report from Chair of Council for January 2014

20/01/14 Cleeve Common Conservators

Meeting to agree priorities for education, publicity and events. Education facilities (base + toilet facilities) and tutor packs are all in place. Will formally roll out to local schools over next couple of months. Seeking to publicise our memorial wall through local funeral directors.

22/01/14 Police Community Meeting

This overlapped with the Wingmoor Forum so I was only able to attend the first part. Cllrs Shakespeare, A Lightfoot, MacKinnon and Richmond were also present. Unfortunately, there was only a few members of the public attended – all of whom had very specific issues / concerns which may not have been representative of the wider community. Feedback from others was that the council was strongly criticised by the PCSO for lack of youth provision, lack of publicity (nobody knows about it) and inappropriate location (too far out of village centre). This was challenged by councillors at the meeting but, on advice from our Community Engagement Committee, I have written to the police with factual information on scope, cost and reasons for selecting the locations we have. A copy has been circulated to all councillors.

22/01/14 Wingmoor Liaison Forum

Shortest meeting I have ever attended. Only issues of note were a complete rebuild of one of the generators which will result in flaring of some methane for a few days and improvements to fire protection at Printwaste. This is as the result of an Environment Agency initiative to visit, together with the local fire brigade, all local waste treatment premises with large volumes of combustible material. The dust monitor is being removed following completion of 6 months of sampling. Expectation is that the health impact analysis will be available at the next meeting.

29/01/14 Cleeve Conservators

Executive meeting. Main topic was a review of finances going forward. We made a small surplus this year on cash flow but will be a deficit after allowing for depreciation. This year was not typical and we expect to have a small cash flow deficit next year. Current funding is secure until the end of 2016. We have been lobbying hard to regain single farm payment in new funding regime but advice is that this is unlikely. Only the holders of grazing rights can claim but only one of the many rights holders grazes stock on the Common and none contribute to its upkeep. Rather than reduce our conservation and education activities, our focus on raising our profile as a charity so as to attract donations / bequests. We will also look to market our memorial wall plaques more actively.

Roof top housing meeting report Meeting held on Monday 20th January at the Parish office

There was a complaint from a member of the public with regards to the owners of 67/69 Tobyfield Road leaving 7

waste bins in the front of their property. Councillor Hillier-Richardson will speak to Tewkesbury council to see if there

is anything they can do. I was also asked to find out if we can do anything?

There have been complaints about the way Severn Trent has left the Road and Verge in Woodmans Way. Roof tops

will look at it and contact Severn Trent if it is required.

It was reported that when a building in Minetts Avenue was vacated the lights had been left on upstairs. Rooftop will

look into this matter.

The junction of Minetts avenue and Linworth has people driving across the grass Rooftop will look at putting bollards

up.

There have been reports that cars are being parked in the entrance to Courters Drive garages so that he garage

owners cannot get their cars in and out. Sue will speak to Highways.

A Request was made to Rooftops for the green in Jesson Road to have parking bays put in. Rooftops said that they only

have 2 houses in this road so it was unlikely to happen, but they would look into the price of doing so.

There is a tree in Tobyfield Road where the roots are getting to close to number 43. Rooftop will look into this matter.

The parking area on the green opposite the barracks square is being put out to tender. I reminded them that we had

asked at planning for them to put bollards at the end of the bays to stop large Vans/vehicles with large overhangs

from blocking the pavement access. They will take this on-board.

The new building that they had decided to sell may now be kept for renting out.

They have some money that they are looking at using for improving facilities in Bishops Cleeve 1 of the ideas is to see if

the Play Rangers require any additional equipment for when they entertain the children in our playing fields. I said

they should contact Belinda.

They have a large number of trees coming for planting around the village as some of these will grow to a very large

size that they will have to be very careful, or in the future there will be more complaints like we already receive as to

the roots etc.
