Ward Councillors Report: Ward Cllr Barbara Jefferson spoke about the work that she has been involved

with regarding Hornsea Cottage Hospital.

Initially Barbara and the secretary of her Cabinet, had written to the Health Minister regarding the promise of

new Hospital facilities for the North of England.

Charlie Dewhirst and top officials from governing bodies attended a 2 hour meeting at the site in Hornsea.

The idea would be for a Neighbourhood Community Healthcare Centre to be created, giving a wider range of

treatment and clinic facilities.

The Officials were reported to be very impressed with the current facility, that is in a good state of repair, as it

has had a large amount of money spent on it over past years.

Barbara went on to say that these things take time, but the initial question has been asked.

The HGV signs at Atwick are ready to be sited, this will happen ASAP, but staff are busy on another project

at the moment.

Planning: Nothing.

the clippings being on the road. The meeting was assured that these were cleaned up in a reasonable time, last

year complaints were heard about how untidy the hedge looked.

be sent to ERYC Highways.

The finger post at the junction at Front Row, Bewholme has been replaced.

Cllr Brenda Aylott asked if anything was being done with Atwick Road, as far known this is in the pipeline,

but may take cosiderable time to attain the funds needed.

A letter to be sent to Traffic Management asking for a site meeting, re-speed warning signs.

Banking: Lloyds Bank, the new account is open, but no cheque was issued for the closing balance. This has

been very troublesome, as the information received from the Bank has been confusing, and some main points

have just not happened. Jim Froud and Cllr Graham Staples attended the Hornsea Hub, this afternoon, and

have been told that they cannot handle Business and Community accounts, this has to be done at a main

branch of Lloyds. Hopefully the money will be transferred to the new account within the next week.
