We have just a couple of weeks left to submit a funding bid to WECA in support of developing a new transport scheme i.e., a daily service connecting people living in Bitton, Oldland and Siston with Keynsham for example.&nbsp;But we must get more evidence to justify the need for such a service. WECA is very keen to support us but this is likely to be a one off opportunity so please get involved.&nbsp;If you depend on public transport or would sooner leave the car at home PLEASE complete the short survey.&nbsp;&nbsp;Thank you to those that have already completed the short survey but we need more. Please share with neighbours, family and close friend that rely on public transport. We need as much evidence as possible.&nbsp;The survey can be accessed here: <a href="https://oldlandparishhub.commonplace.is/en-GB/proposals/westlocal-grant/step1">https://oldlandparishhub.commonplace.is/en-GB/proposals/westlocal-grant/step1</a>&nbsp;For assistance to complete the survey or if you would prefer to submit comments in other ways please contact: Steve SkidmoreTel: 0117 9673941 Mobile: 07554823961Email: Steve.skidmore@oldlandparishcouncil.gov.uk

The Annual Parish Meeting of Oldland will take place at 7pm on Tuesday 19th March at Cadbury Heath Hall. &nbsp;The Annual Parish Meeting is not a Parish Council meeting. The Local Government Act states that every parish must hold Parish Meeting a year and this must be held between 1st March and 1st June. &nbsp; The Agenda is a standard agenda to give reports on the business of the last 12 months. The Parish Council reports to its electorate on its activities over the last year and perhaps from any voluntary or local community group. It is also an opportunity for residents to question people and organisations on any issues relating to the parish. &nbsp;As the Annual Parish Meeting is not a parish council meeting it is not conducted in the same way or governed by the same rules as a parish council meeting. Members of the public are permitted to make statements on relevant matters during the meeting and any resolutions passed do not bind the Parish Council. &nbsp;Any resident of Oldland Parish is welcome to attend. &nbsp;Items of business are as follows:-1. Election of Chairman2. Minutes of the Annual Parish Meeting 20233. Matters Arising4. Chairman&rsquo;s Report5. To receive the Financial Statement for the year ended 31 March 20236. Committee Reportsa) Community &amp; Environment Committeeb) Planning &amp; Highways Committeec) Finance &amp; Policies Committee7. Community Group Reports8.
