CHAIRMAN’S REPORTReading through the Council's minutes for the last twelve months reveals many ongoing matters discussed, but with only one notable new item, namely the theft of the flagstones at the Headley War Memorial, a despicable act, and their subsequent replacement, followed by the planned cleaning of the Memorial, which was completed in time for Remembrance Day. |

The Whitehill-Bordon Eco Town Project remains an important issue for Headley, and in particular Standford. We had three speakers on the Project at the April 2010 Annual Parish Meeting, and a lively question and answer session followed. As you will see this is also the subject for this year's Annual Parish Meeting. Highway topics feature regularly during the year, in particular
problems with the 30 mph Speed Limit Reminder sign, which
seems to have been cured with a change of contractor. We also
submitted our comments to Hampshire County Council on
proposed traffic 'calming' measures through Arford.
Following the snowfalls of Winter 2009/10, repeated again this
winter, we received new (blue) grit bins from the County
Council, and have requested further bins in Phase Two of this
scheme. There have been a few changes within the Council during the
year, as noted in the Editor's Introduction. Special mentions go
to Richard Clifford, who I replaced as Chairman in May, to Deborah
Chamberlain who edits the Parish Council Newsletter, and
to Dennis Tregay for his hard work as Editor of this report. Anthony Williams
