Chairman Paddy Doyle opened the meeting and gave his report which covered progress to date with the Two Tunnels project, concentrating on the planned access to the pathway in Lyncombe Vale, and reiterating the WA view that we were broadly supportive of this access, subject to certain provisos about signage and construction. He also mentioned the revamped voluntary one-way system in Lyncombe Vale, our work with FoBRA, particularly with respect to localism , and replanting by the Widcombe loos to deter rough sleepers and street drinkers. Sarah Lewis was thanked for great work over the years, particularly in her role as events organiser, and Chris Rogers was welcomed to the role, where he has already established an events sub-committee of 12. Alex Nash was thanked for her organisation of the superbly successful WA Garden Club. Paddy also made a plea for more committee members, and thanked Rob Morley for coming forward to revamp the website.
Jeremy Boss was re-elected Treasurer of the Association.
Julian Williams gave a short presentation on progress on Rossiter Rd to date. Paddy pointed out that Julian was soon to move out of Widcombe, and thanked him for his hard work on the Committee.
The meeting concluded with an entertaining and informative talk by Bath artist Peter Brown who told us how he set about creating a picture.
