Proposed : Cllr Failey ;  Seconded: Cllr Hulme;  Vote: carries unanimously

a)Mrs Sarah Hodgson spoke about the metal fence with spikes on, which has appeared at the bottom of her garden—she has spoken with ERYC who stated that they have had it erected because of recent burglaries (Paull Parish Council has no knowledge of any burglaries.)    Mrs Hodgson stated that she has not been informed or approached by ERYC regarding the erecting of the fence, and that she can no longer access the stopcock to her property. Mrs Hodgson is in the process of putting up a wooden fence around her garden, but the metal one is higher and will still be seen from her property, she is very upset as she has spent much time and money restoring the property. Mrs Hodgson to forward information to the clerk
