Chairman’s Report April 8, 2020
John Malpus 
Good evening, this is your Chairman’s report for 2020. It has
been a very productive year for the East Goscote Parish
Council.

Council and Staff:

This year Michelle Nelson joined the council. Unfortunately,
Kevin Preston and Mehmet Gonulalan stood down at the local
elections and subsequently, Roger Merry-Howe resigned. We
currently have only 7 Councillors. I have continued as
Chairman and I have been ably supported by my Vice
Chairman, Cathy Duffy.

Cllr Webbon completed a new Councillor course.
Whilst the Councillors make decisions, our staff work hard to
carry out these decisions to the benefit of the village. Our clerk,
Liz Pizer, and our administration assistant, Caroline Taylor also
keep us in line with legal and regulatory requirements. Liz also
supervises work done around the village.

Charlie Cadle continues in the Caretakers role although, Nick
Shivers assists when we need an extra pair of hands. Work
done by our Caretakers is of a very high standard.
Mr Webbon has continued as Tree Warden on a voluntary
basis.
Our thanks go to all Councillors and the staff for their continued
hard work.
Planning Applications:
During the year 17 planning Applications have been received
and considered by the Parish Council.
