Shelter and advised that there should be more information

would be pursuing the matter further.
Cornwall Councillor Neil Plummer:
Cllr Plummer was not present at the meeting
Members of the Public:
Mrs Vincent was concerned that, despite
assurances by Mike East of Cornwall Council at a Clean Up
Conference almost a year ago, nothing appeared to have happened
regarding the provision of bigger litter bins.
She was also concerned that a railing and
steps to the public footpath adjacent to the vacant site on
Crellow Hill between Tyrol and Veranos had been removed. The
chairman advised that, despite representations made by the
Parish Council at the time, nothing had been included in the
planning approval whereby they had to be reinstated.

Discussion with Simon Newport:
Mr Newport, Commercial Director, introduced
himself and Mel Williams, Operations Manager for Cornwall.
He gave a brief outline of how First Cornwall
had operated since taking over Truronian and detailed the
various services serving Stithians, including the types of bus
used and why.
He advised that the T14 (now 42) service was
currently out to tender and they may or may not be operating it
as a result.
He alluded to problems of providing low floor
buses in advance of the DDA deadline of 2015 for single deckers
and 2017 for double deckers and stated that until those dates
the company had no duty to do so, although they would very much
like to but were extremely constrained financially.
He addressed several complaints ranging from
dirty buses, inappropriate timetables and bad timekeeping to
buses not following the correct routes and asked Mr Williams to
investigate several of the complaints received.
Mr Newport offered to return in twelve
months’ time to discuss what progress had been made.
There being no other matters raised for
public participation, the Chairman thanked Messers Newport and
Williams for their attendance, whereupon they and the members of
the public left the meeting. Mr Davis also left, stating that he
had nothing to add following the discussion that had just taken
place. The Chairman reopened the meeting at 20.25. |

TRANSPORT
Transport Representative’s Report:
Nothing further to report.
TREES
Parish Tree Warden’s Report:
Jim Lyle, the Parish Tree Warden, had nothing
to report on matters immediately appertaining to the Parish.
He referred to an e-mail forwarded to him by
the Clerk which had been received in response to an instruction
to the Clerk at the January meeting to ask Cornwall Council how
work approved to trees was checked.
The short answer is that work is not checked
and Cornwall Council had suggested that training, if indeed it
was necessary, could be given to the Tree Warden to enable him
to check the work.
Mr Lyle indicated that he was willing to
check work done and suggested that "before" photographs should
be submitted with applications and then a card sent to either CC
or SPC when the work was complete so that a check could be made
(a similar process to that used by Building Control).
RESOLVED that the Clerk write to Cornwall
Council expressing Mr Lyle’s willingness to receive training as
appropriate and making them aware of his procedural suggestion.
Proposed by Cllr Vincent, seconded by Cllr
Mrs Kavanagh and carried unanimously.
MINUTE 04/02/10
Mr Lyle left the meeting at this point at
20.40 having been thanked by the Chairman for his attendance. |

to the lord Chancellor. This was dismissed as too expensive and
fraught with obstacles.

MATTERS ARISING FROM THE MINUTES OF THE
DECEMBER COUNCIL MEETING
Para 7.2.2: In response to a question
from Cllr Biscoe, the Clerk advised that he had actually taken
the leave requested as annual leave and not sickness.
Minute 08/12/09(2): The Clerk asked if
the Diocese had been approached for financial assistance with
the cutting of the lower churchyard. Cllr Vincent was unsure but
undertook to raise the matter at the next PCC meeting. There was
discussion as to whether a sum of money should be mentioned.
RESOLVED that Cllr Vincent raise the matter
of financial assistance from the Diocese towards the cutting of
the lower churchyard at the next PCC meeting and to state that
the annual cost thereof was likely to be £1,500.
Proposed by Cllr Biscoe, seconded by Cllr
Shankar and carried. The Chairman and Cllr Vincent declared an
interest and did not vote.
MINUTE 02/01/10
Para 11.1.4: Cllr Vincent advised that
the problems at the entrance to the new cemetery had been caused
by leaves on the highway not permitting water to flow off the
slope. This had been rectified by members of the PCC and it was
noted that the Clerk had included an item to cover this in the
new contract for cemetery maintenance to be considered later in
the meeting.
AFFORDABLE HOUSING DELIVERY
Jody Jeffrey, Cornwall Council’s Affordable
Housing Officer for the West Area, explained that the team now
sat within the planning service whereas in previous authorities
it had be within Environmental Health.
He explained that the next step, having
undertaken a survey, was to analyse the results and assess the
need.
He presented an analysis of the results
received, a copy of which is appended to the minutes and advised
that the response rate had been less than 10%, considerably less
than that which would normally be accepted as giving a reliable
indication of need.
Nevertheless, ten responses had expressed a
need and this could possibly justify a small scheme if a
developer were to propose one.
There was considerable debate over the best
way forward.
RESOLVED that a further Door to Door Survey
be carried out at a later date in conjunction with a further
survey for the Community Structure Plan.
Proposed by Cllr Vincent, seconded by Cllr P
Tisdale and carried unanimously.
MINUTE 03/01/10
Jody Jeffrey agreed to provide further
samples of questionnaires for consideration at the appropriate
time.
The Chairman thanked Mr Jeffrey for his
attendance at the meeting whereupon he left at 19.35.
COMMUNITY STRUCTURE PLAN
The Clerk advised that he had received the
responses and had quickly analysed them, the result of which he
circulated to Members and is appended to these minutes. He
advised that there had been a very poor response rate (12%
stated on the analysis but since the meeting correctly
calculated at 8.47%).
He pointed out, however, that it had revealed
seven people who were willing to serve on the Steering
Committee.
The Clerk pointed out that, because of his
illness, he had not been party to this finalised consultation
forms and was therefore unaware that three cash prizes had been
offered in a draw of numbered forms returned. He stated that,
had he been aware of this, he would have advised against it as
it was inappropriate use of public money. He advised that the
person who decided to do this, if he wished to honour the
matter, would have to provide the funds from his own pocket.
However, only eleven of the forms had been completed in respect
of the sender.
It was acknowledged that the number of forms
returned was insufficient to form the basis of a Community
Structure Plan and there was discussion as to the best way
forward.
RESOLVED that the matter be placed on the
agenda for the April meeting for reconsideration, prior to which
a further meeting of the Steering Group to include the potential
new members mentioned above would be held which would report to
the April meeting.
Proposed by Cllr Biscoe, seconded by Cllr
Shankar and carried unanimously.

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION Devon & Cornwall
Police:
Both PC Cook and PSCO Huddlestone had sent
their apologies but the Clerk presented PC Cook’s report, a copy
of which is appended to these minutes.
This was duly noted.
Cllr Vincent drew members’ attention to
several matters including vandalism, stones being pulled from a
wall in Crellow Hill, noise from the Seven Stars well into the
early hours and the fact that the trailer was still parked on
the road at Foundry.
Cllr Biscoe advised that the matter of the
trailer had been looked into by Police previously and it had
been found to comply with all legal requirements at that time.
It was agreed that these matter would be
raised the next time there was a police presence at a meeting.
Cornwall Councillor Neil Plummer:
Cllr Plummer was not present at the meeting
Members of the Public:
Diane and John Bell voiced their concerns
that incidences of large vehicles taking wrong turnings and
having difficulty in turning round were increasing and cited a
recent example where a wall had been badly damaged.
Cllr Vincent advised that he had spoken to
the Area Surveyor about the particular incident that was
mentioned and responsibility for repair of the wall rested with
the owners of the wall and/or the vehicle.
Mr and Mrs Bell were of the opinion that
signs were necessary in various parts of the Parish advising of
the unsuitability of certain roads for large vehicles.
It was noted that they intended to write to
the County Council on the matter and that they intended to copy
their letter to the Clerk. Cllr Vincent stated that he would
contact Andy Bartle, the Area Surveyor on the matter. |

TRANSPORT
Transport Representative’s Report:
Rod Davis, the Council’s Transport
Representative, had little to report. He advised that there had
been considerable disruption to services in the recent snow and
that for some time they were restricted to the main roads away
from the village as bus routes were not necessarily included on
the CC gritting schedule unless they happened to be A roads.
It was pointed out that this issue had been
taken up with Cornwall Council but to little avail.
Mr Davis asked if Simon Newport from First
Devon and Cornwall would be attending the February meeting. The
Clerk advised that Mr Newport was intending to attend.
The Chairman thanked Mr Davis for his
continued work whereupon he left the meeting at 19.55.
TREES
Parish Tree Warden’s Report:
Jim Lyle, the Parish Tree Warden, had nothing
to report on matters appertaining to the Parish.
He advised of a Workshop on the pruning of
apple trees to be held on Saturday 23rd January at
Tehidy Country Park and invited any interested Member to attend.
The Chairman thanked Mr Lyle for his
continued work for the Parish.

CLERK’S REPORTS
Tregolls Common:
The Clerk outlined the current situation
regarding the fence at Tregolls Common and presented his report,
a copy of which is appended to these minutes.
RESOLVED to note the information provided re
Tregolls Common and to agree to defer any further consideration
of the matter until the result of court case concerning the

It was agreed unanimously to defer further
discussion to the confidential part of the meeting.
Current Financial Position:
The Clerk presented his report on the
Council’s current financial position, a copy of which is
appended to these minutes.
Cllr Biscoe questioned the amount of money
ring fenced for the Bowling Club. The Clerk advised that the sum
of £1,000 held in the Playing Field Reserve was actually for
legal expenses in connection with the footpath diversion to
enable the Bowling Club extension. He further stated that monies
raised towards the Bowling Club extension and held by the PC had
been paid over to them in November.
Cllr Biscoe asked what the Development Fund
was ear marked for and was informed by the Clerk that this was
an oversight which would be corrected.
RESOLVED to note the Council’s current
financial position as detailed in the report.
Proposed by Cllr Biscoe, seconded by Cllr
Vincent and carried unanimously.
MINUTE 06/01/10
Institute of Local Council Management:
The Clerk presented his report, a copy of
which is appended to these minutes. It was noted that there was
inadequate financial provision in the 20010/11 Budget to
accommodate all the costs likely to be incurred by the Clerk in
satisfying the CPD requirement and that it would have to be
financed from Reserves for the ensuing year. The Clerk estimated
that the additional cost would be approximately £500, but could
be slightly more depending upon what travel and accommodation
costs were involved.
RESOLVED:
1. To permit the Clerk to make
application to join the Institute of Local Council
Management and to acknowledge the additional budgetary
requirements.
2. To pay the Administration Fee of £15
immediately and the Membership Fees (currently £65 per
annum) as they become due.

Vincent and carried unanimously.

that they would be corrected when the documents were issued.

Planning Applications received after
publication of the agenda:
The Clerk advised that one planning
application had been received since the publication of the
agenda. It had, however, been received too late to enable its
proper consideration.
PA09/01414/F was for the retention of a
domestic workshop/studio at Carn Vean, Tretheague Mill and the
Clerk advised that, because of the date of receipt of the
application, he had asked for an extension of time to enable the
matter to be discussed at the next meeting. This had been
granted, but the Planning Officer had requested some "informal
feedback" from this meeting.
Members were of the opinion that there were
too many aspects of the application that could only be addressed
at a site meeting and therefore even informal feedback could not
be given without a site meeting or at least speaking to the
applicant.
RESOLVED to inform Cornwall Council that,
because there were too many aspects of the application that
could only be addressed at a site meeting, the Parish Council
would be unable to respond to the application until after the
next meeting on 16th February.
Proposed by Cllr Biscoe, seconded by Cllr P
Tisdale and carried unanimously.

PARISH PLAN
Cllr Barkhuysen presented his report, a copy
of which is appended to these minutes, suggesting the name be
changed to a Community Structure Plan as it suggested more of a
sense of belonging for the Village.
Questionnaire:
Cllr Barkhuysen expressed his disappointment
in the fact that only 2 members had replied to his email asking
for questions to put in the Parish Plan. Cllr P Tisdale said
that he had spoken to the Clerk for Mabe PC who was going to
pass him their original questionnaire for their plan.
The Chairman pointed out that due to lack of
interest the Parish Council could do their own Plan, but it
would not have the same power a grass roots plan would have.
It was suggested that the questions could be
thinned and made more generalised, including some emotive
questions which would make people want to reply. i.e. Do you
know or have Children who would like affordable housing in the
Village?
Cllr Barkhuysen had spoken to Judith Twigger
about distribution, and they are hoping to have the
questionnaire and Spotlight on Stithians ready for distribution
the same time as the Village Hall Management Committee so that
only 1 distribution is required.
Cllr Barkhuysen asked members to email him
some questions they would like to see in the questionnaire by
Friday 20th November if it is to be printed in time.
Resolved:
1. To note the report.
2. That Councillors would email
questions for the Questionnaire by Friday 20th
November 2009 to Cllr Barkhuysen.
Proposed by Cllr Barkhuysen, seconded by Cllr
Mrs Kavanagh and carried unanimously.

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION Devon & Cornwall
Police:
Apologies had been received from PC Dave
Cook, and he had sent a report, a copy of which is attached to
these minutes.
This was duly noted
Cornwall Councillor Neil Plummer:
Cllr Plummer was present. He said he was
chasing people up about Carncrees, about which there should soon
be a decision. From what he had heard, indications were that
they were going to delegate a refusal.
He said that since the unitary authority had
been in place communications had been getting worse. Having sent
an email on the 1st October to Planning (copied to
the Clerk) and having had no response from any of the
correspondents he chased it up on the 6th November.
Nicola Stinson replied immediately, saying she understood that
others would have looked into it, and would chase it up to get
someone to reply. To date he had had no response.
Cllr Plummer had requested a Radar Speed
Check on the A394 from Helston at the Halvasso junction in
Herniss.
He said that there are grants available to
encourage Children to play in natural environments.
Cllr Plummer stated that things have got to
get better (as they can’t get any worse) (talking about
communication and Community Network Areas), and reminded
everyone that he would reply as promptly as he could to any
communication he receives.
Members of the Public:
Howard Jones said that after the Restorative
Justice Meeting there had been no more anti-social behaviour at
Gribbas Corner. He had also met with the other residents who
mostly agreed that the bench on the corner would not be missed,
and perhaps a flower bed would be nicer. There was only 1
resident, an elderly lady who was attached to the bench. It was
pointed out that she did however, not use it.

Longdowns if they would be happy to have people hand in the
questionnaires to them.
The Chairman requested that we get a copy of

Notification of Planning Decisions Received:
The planning list, a copy of which is
appended to these minutes, was reviewed.
This information was duly noted.
Planning Applications received:
PA09/01359/FD – Ms C Baltrus – Continued use
of take-away food shop without compliance with the proprietor
occupying the adjoining property – Stithians Takeaway, New Road.
Cllr Barkhuysen presented his report, a copy
of which is appended to these minutes. The Chairman expressed a
concern about the number of cars and the lack of parking.
Resolved:
1. To support
the application.
2. To
investigate the enforcement of no parking 15m of a junction,
enabling us to insist on having a traffic warden every now
and then.
Proposed by Cllr Barkhuysen, seconded
by Cllr Mrs Kavanagh and carried unanimously.
MINUTE 07/11/09
PA09/01410/LU – Mrs EM Cook – Certificate of
Lawfulness for an existing use of dwelling in breach of
agricultural occupancy condition – The Bungalow, Trevales Farm.
Cllr Barkhuysen presented his report, a copy
of which is appended to these minutes. Cllr P Tisdale said he
had contacted the NFU and was told that a Widow does not need to
work the land to be able to live on it if her husband worked the
land until retirement/death.
Cllr Barkhuysen asked for clarification of
the condition on the property (item no 6 on the planning
application – the Chairman found it).
Cllr Barkhuysen believed that Mrs Cook was
breaching the condition by not working the land after her
husband’s death, although it was pointed out to him that this
was lawful several times.
There was a reluctance to support the
application as the council did not want to support land
profiteering and reducing the little affordable housing the
village has. It was also seen as likely that if the land was
split from the house then when someone does want to work the
land they will have to put another building there to be able to
work it.
Cllr Barkhuysen said that the Cooks had been
breaching the condition by not coming from local employment – he
said they had come from Reading.
Resolved:
1. Not to
support the application.
2. To ask that
a local person must next occupy.
3. To enquire
as to why Kerrier did nothing about the matter when it was
raised previously.
Proposed by the Chairman, Seconded by Cllr
Vincent, and carried by Cllr Mrs Kavanagh and Cllr P Tisdale.
Cllr Barkhuysen abstained.
MINUTE 08/11/09
PA09/01411/F – Mr & Mrs D Pledger – Erection
of extension & alterations to dwelling – Kettle Cottage,
Tregolls.
Cllr Barkhuysen, having declared a personal
and prejudicial interest, left the meeting during consideration
of this item.
Cllr P Tisdale presented his report, a copy
of which is appended to these minutes. The only concern he and
Cllr Mrs Kavanagh had was that the extension could be split into
another property, although they considered this very unlikely
owing to its size.
Resolved to support the application
Proposed by Cllr P Tisdale, seconded by Cllr
Kavanagh and carried unanimously. MINUTE 09/11/0
