The Opening of the New Singleton Village Pump!
The ceremony went very well and they could not have asked for a better day! The photograph (which you can click for it's full size version) depicts (left to right) Harry Elliott, Bill Spence (who has spent many hours helping him) and Jenny Martin. She and Bill Spence ended up opening the pump together! The first water was pumped and Bill gave a short speech and thanked Harry Elliott who has spent so long, with exceptional skill, to make all the pieces and put it back into working order. He is a volunteer from Amberley Chalkpits Museum, where the new cap was cast.

Annual Meeting 2007

At the Annual Meeting on 9th May 2007 the councillors resolved to adopt with immediate effect a replacement Code of Conduct which sets out the conduct which is expected of Councillors and Co-oped members of the Council. Members have completed registers of their financial and other interests as required by the Code of Conduct. These, together with the Code of Conduct, can be inspected by the public during July at 132 West Dean by appointment (ring 01243 811344).
Other items on the Agenda included the election of Richard Hill as Chairman for the coming year and the approval of the accounts for the past year. These accounts for the year ended 31st March 2007 will be available for inspection during July at 132 West Dean by appointment.
West Sussex County Council had advised they are considering a new maintenance contract for street lights which would replace faulty lamp standards at no cost to the Parish. This would be at an extra annual cost of approximately £8 per standard.
No objections were raised regarding planning applications for SSE Telecom to install 2 no. antennae and 1 dish on the existing pylon at Hat Hill, and Edward James Foundation to add a two storey extension at 125 Hylters Lane.
