Chairman's Welcome and Introduction
Minutes:
The Chairman, Councillor Ernie Clark, welcomed everyone to the meeting of the Trowbridge Area Board and announced a slight amendment to the agenda, with Item 12 being moved to become Item 9.
A public petition was handed to the Chairman on behalf of local residents calling for traffic calming on Holbrook Lane. The Chairman advised that the petition would be formally logged with Democratic Services and a response would be received within 10 working days.
The Vice Chairman, Councillor Stephen Oldrieve, announced that Fairtrade Fortnight would take place from 28 February to 13 March. Trowbridge had been a Fairtrade Town for the past two years and it was hoped that Wiltshire would soon become a Fairtrade County, particularly as it was a Wiltshire Council priority to support Fairtrade products and services.
