16/030 Parish Fields & Associated Works
Clr Otter reported that the Millenium Field would need some end of year work doing to it to keep it from becoming too overgrown.
16/031 Interactive Speed Signs
Clerk gave a brief report from the information he had received from Notts CC (Sean Parks); in essence it appeared that whilst speeds through Hayton were sufficient to warrant signs, the number of vehicles at peak hour (94) were insufficient, as the recommendation is 250.
The type of sign which Cllr Smith had noted was not of a type that Notts CC were prepared to maintain.
The option for Hayton PC to purchase their own signs was still a viability.
It was pointed out that there was a ISS situated at Welham which probably got less traffic through it than Hayton. Cllr Sutton said she would look into this and report back.

Mr H Oates’ report reiterated the proposed seasonal Byway closures and mentioned the changes within the Highways Dept and ROW Teams.
A discussion around the state of Tiln Lane, the creation of passing places had been raised with Cllr Otter. As a resident of Tiln, Cllr Doney commented that it would probably be of more benefit if the lane was properly resurfaced.
Resolved: Clerk to write to Highways
