St Teath parish council met on 17th September, 9 members attended. Parish Chairperson Retires
The chair of St.Teath Parish Council, Mrs. Patricia Molloy, recently announced her retirement: Members of the council who have worked with Mrs. Molloy during her last term of office,held an informal social evening on Thursday last at the Poldark Inn. Mrs Molloy had previously led the Council in persuading the National Trust not to close the access to Tregardock Beach, negotiating the acquisition of land for a village green in St. Teath and recently planning the long awaited resurfacing of the access to Delabole Cemetery , Vell Lane . Ann made reference to Tricia’s apprenticeship: her father, Ron Thomas, had been Clerk to the Council and she had thus continued the family tradition of service to the community. Mrs Molloy was presented with an ornamental tree, a selection of patio pots in full bloom and an indoor plant arrangement. District and Parish Councillor, John Lugg, said Tricia would be missed immensely. Mrs Molloy continues to Chair the Board of Governors of Delabole School and is the Senior Steward of Delabole Methodist Church so it will not be tea and slippers just yet ! The meeting of the Parish Council held on Tuesday 9th May 2006
The Annual Parish meeting was held in St. Teath Community Centre on Tuesday 9th May, unfortunately only one member of the public attended. A very interesting meeting was held with Sally Lewis from the Rural Transport who attended to give a very informative evening. We would like to thank Jason for all his hard work in the parish and his dedication to the job. We would ask people to make his job a little easier by putting rubbish in the litter bins provided around the villages. The play equipment for Delabole will be sited in June, this equipment is for the younger children and our thanks go to Kelly and the committee for their continued fund raising events and hard work to get the funds available to purchase the equipment. The parish council have contributed towards the equipment, but we must add that the safety surfacing is almost as expensive as the equipment, so please respect both the surfacing and the equipment, so that it may be used for many years to come. There are funds available for some new equipment for St. Teath Village Green and one request we have had is for some small goal posts. So we will try to get at least these in place for the summer. The next meeting is to be held in St. Teath Community Centre on Monday 19th June 7.30pm. Jayne Stark
