118 Signing of Minutes of Meeting Held 13^th February 2007

Cllr. Garlick made reference to the fact that members of the public had, during the public session at the end of the meeting, referred to the fact that car washing was being undertaken at the Car Park in Crown Road. He enquired as to whether this should have been referred to in the minutes. The Chairman said that as this had taken place during "question time" there was no necessity for it to be recorded in the minutes.
