191/20: Mayor’s Announcements:

The Mayor’s announcement had been circulated to all councillors prior to the meeting this is the detail:

Firstly, I would like to extend our condolences to the Queen and the rest of the Royal Family on the death of the Duke of Edinburgh. 2020 and 2021 have been such a terrible time for so many families and we have all suffered from events. Hopefully, we are finding a way out of this. It would be lovely to see you all in person soon.

I am grateful to say that the appalling graffiti at Haverigg was dealt with swiftly and professionally by a dedicated and motivated group of volunteers. We are so very lucky to have the people who really care about the area and to act on it at a moments notice. I sincerely thank all those who were involved for their help.

This month we have also had an issue with old wooden poles erected in 1956 in Church Walk. Despite several efforts nobody would take ownership of them, although they were a clear and present danger both to the people who lived in the vicinity as well as passers-by. I thank the people living close by for raising the issue and I am pleased to say that they have now been removed by Millom Town Council.

Lastly, but most definitely not least, I am saddened that our wonderful Town Clerk, Victoria Bradley is choosing to move on to something new. We will lose her next month. She has been a tower of strength and good advice throughout her time working with us, she will be much missed.
