Clerks & Administrator’s Report

3.1 Draft T&C for one-off hirers – BB amended and VBC has instigated this into the hirer’s procedure.
3.2 Scouts – Asbestos Survey – LW has created a warning sign for them to put up.
3.3 Social Club – cigarette ends – LW wrote to the Social Club and they have now put a sand bin outside the premises.
3.4 Projector – VBC made it known that it would cost £40 for the projector to be taken down and sent off to see what the issue is compared to £650 + VAT for a new one and  £75 to fit.  VBC has asked for this to be carried out as soon as possible as there tends to be a high usage of the projector in the autumn.
