    Final Costings for Precept

    The figures brought by Finance to the table were discussed and it was agreed to present them at the Full Council Meeting to be held on 23rd January 2006.

    The precept was agreed at £77500.00.

    Cllr RWG Butt proposed and Cllr J Rich seconded this motion

  5. Office Security at Beacon Hall
  6. An estimate had been received from Somer 2000 for panic buttons to be fitted and also an estimate for closed circuit TV. It was felt, however, that maybe the purchase of two mobile alarms patched through the present alarm system at the Beacon Hall to a monitor would be preferable as the clerks may not necessarily receive visitors in the office.

    The clerk was asked to obtain an estimate for those.
