 Dist Cllr. V. Holliday.   
NNDC, as part of the Norfolk Warm Homes Consortium, has £3.85m of government grant to provide energy efficiency works to homes occupied by low income households. If household income is less than £30,000 and the property has an Energy Performance Certificate of band D or lower, the grant will cover 100% of costs for owner occupiers (to a maximum of £10,000) and 2/3 of the cost for landlords ( to a maximum of £7,500 for landlords). Eligible works include wall, loft and underfloor insulation, and low carbon heating technologies.
Discretionary Housing Payments are still available for those who need support to prevent rent arrears and eviction.
The Household Support Fund is open till the end of March but has only £30,000 left. Online applications are paused whilst existing applications are processed. The focus is on those on income related benefits such as pension credit, those on disability and sickness related benefits and those living in a property with an Energy Performance Certificate of E or below.

The revised Constitution is not yet completed but is in progress.
Appointment of second tier Trustees held until constitution completed but will continue with existing appointees until approved by Parish Council.
Going ahead with one height barrier and 7 gates onto the Heath. Finalising costing before ordering. Although the gates will be locked to keep out dumping, campervans and travellers, those in the village who will need regular access can have a key.
Scrub flailing has been done, burning of gorse has been postponed till late Sept/ October due to material being too wet.
Sheep have been reintroduced into the northern enclosure and consist of Welsh Cross and Herdwick.
Alongside the animal fences the gorse and scrub has been cut on both sides but needs the fence line clearing by hand. Volunteers will be sought and advertised on the village website.
An iPad has been purchased to assist in maintaining records etc.
Gallow Hill with the Tumulus needs strimming and again volunteers will be requested.
Cuckoo Corner ownership is still in discussion and maps are being sought from the NNDC archives. With the help of more modern maps from NNDC it will be possible to apportion Tithes and solve the Cuckoo corner ownership problem.
Reported that Japanese Knot weed is in an old quarry within the Heath and this will be dealt with again when it arrives in the spring.
The Bylaw for dumping and fires on the Heath calls for a £20 fine for an infringement. This is required to be increased and procedures are being sort for the increase.

We should have outcomes of the trial of the additional rapid response vehicle based in Fakenham by February.
I’m meeting with the NNDC CEO and stakeholders to discuss campervan tourism in one of the coastal parishes, so hopefully we’ll get some strategic direction as to how best to accommodate this growing trend.

 Norfolk pilot scheme helps pregnant women quit smoking
Researchers at East Anglia University (UEA) and the University of Cambridge have developed an anonymous text service designed to help mums-to-be quit smoking.MiQuit provides free support, sending tailored advice and information directly to their phones. The results of this pilot being run in Norfolk may help the service be taken up across the country, helping many more people live healthier and happier lives.
 
Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service
A Team of 16 young people in Norfolk are heading for a brighter future after learning new skills with Norfolk Fire & Rescue Service.
The young people undertook a 12-week personal development course, at Norwich and Dereham, and their hard work has seen them earn the Prince’s Trust Certificate in Employment, Teamwork and Community Skills, as well as Emergency First Aid at work. The learners also did work experience with local charities.
All young people aged between 16 and 25, who are not in work, training or education are eligible to take on the Team challenge and learn new workplace skills to help get them into employment or aid in finding volunteering and training opportunities. Participating does not affect any benefits. Travel costs are reimbursed.

The new "Constitution" rewrite is underway and the first meeting to prepare a draft for review is planned within the next few weeks.
The PC appointed members will meet to decide on co-opted members of the management group.
 
Work is continuing with the topping programme to increase the grass cover and reduce gorse and bracken regrowth in addition to tree regrowth.
 
Work to be done in next 2 months: - We had hoped to carry out burning of scrub removed on Cley corner and sections within the radar site but the wet weather has prevented this. We hope to carry this out in the coming weeks before the March 1st HLS deadline. We also hope to carry out the final section of roadside clearance across the Salthouse Heath. We plan to carry out fence line and burial mounds clearance for which we will be seeking volunteers for raking and clearing of arisings.
All of these actions will be posted on the website for information, volunteering and safety aspects.
The next Trustee meeting will be planned over the next week or so with an additional site meeting later January or early February for setting the work programme.
The dead red deer hind was apparently hit by a car and managed to clear the fence where it died. There was no evidence of it being trapped in the fence. Due to its weight it was dragged into the heavy Gorse where it will naturally decompose.
The management group as we are now also need to decide on barrier purchase and install as requested by the police and install warning signs for dogs to be on leads during the bird breeding season of March 1st and July 31st and at all times around livestock.
We will also designate areas for tree removal for wood fuel.

Page 115 
Planning performance is below target for minor applications but we have a new Director of Planning who has developed an Action Plan to work on this. Part of the problem is that Planning Officers have large workloads. Planning applications are up, and the building sector has been busy with 480 new homes built last year. The Local Plan, which will guide development decisions in North Norfolk till 2036, will soon be out for consultation so don’t miss your chance to comment. The new web pages for reporting of enforcement complaints should now be live.

County Cllr. E. Varney
Chances, a £4.9m Norfolk County Council project, co-funded by the European Social Fund, is reaching out to people in Norfolk who have recently lost their jobs or are long-term unemployed who may face barriers to finding work. It aims to help them get back into employment through new opportunities for support and training.
Launched in April 2021, the project has already supported nearly 300 participants on their journey to find employment. 
The Norfolk County Council-led Chances for Work and Chances Healthy Living projects are being run by partners Voluntary Norfolk, Citizens Advice Norfolk, Citizens Advice Diss, Thetford and District, and Future Projects. There are local advocates based in each of the seven Norfolk district areas, who work to provide personalised one-to-one support.
Depending on the needs of the individual, the support could include help to identify skills gaps and finding suitable training and qualifications, support to access services to boost health and well-being, or finding ways to overcome barriers such as transport or accessing childcare. Support for those with physical or learning disabilities could also include providing help to access services, or assistance from a mental health specialist or disability support specialist who will be working closely with the Chances team.
The project which officially started in April 2021 will run until September 2023.

Individuals who are keen to find out more are welcome to contact the project team directly – for contact details and further information see www.norfolk.gov.uk/chances

6.         There were no matters arising from the Minutes.
 
7.         To appoint three Trustees to the Salthouse Heath Trust.
As stated previously the Parish Council has ultimate responsibility for protecting the heath.
There are now two strands to this– protecting the heath for the village to use as an amenity and secondly to try and restore the habitat  of the heath. The latter is being funded by Natural England by the giving of grant money. A ‘prescription’ is given by them for the work recommended to be done.
 
The Parish Council have met with the Heath Trustees and a way forward has been found.
 
The Parish Council will appoint the first three Heath Trustees but also one member of the Parish Council (either Chair or Vice Chair ) will  be appointed . The Parish Council trustee will act as liaison between Parish Council and the Heath Trustees and also with the village . Any future questions about the heath, heath management etc. should be addressed to him or her .
 
The four Parish Council appointees will then appoint the remainder of the Heath Trustees.
 
The Heath trustees will continue to have an annual public meeting in Sept or October.
 
Annual accounts will be presented at this meeting after scrutiny by an independent auditor.
The meetings will take place in the village hall (neutral space) which is sensible as the Heath Trustees paperwork is there.
 
Minutes of the meetings will be taken.
 
A new Constitution will be drawn up following consultation between the Heath Trustees and the Parish Council.
 
The Parish Council therefore appoints  the following:
Clifford Large
Charles Elsdon
Neil Featherstone
Colin Horwood (Parish Council)
 
8.           Marl Pit. Approximately 20% of the plants are cleared. During the winter it is intended to clear the overhanging branches and allow the sunlight in. This should help the water to clear.

14        Correspondence.  A letter from Mr. Turville-Peter
Dear Parish Councillors
I believe the village benefits considerably by the children who currently make up a large part of its residential population. Without them, the village would be greatly the poorer for it would become simply a dormitory for the older and retired. I believe residents and visitors alike benefit from a vibrant and divers living community of which young families and their children are an essential part. In recognition of their importance I would like to suggest a fund is created for the benefit of children who live in the village to promote their welfare and education. The fund might be supported by donations and general fundraising in the village and managed by the parish council as a separate fund.
Monies might be granted to individuals or groups for the general benefit of children and young people for their general welfare/education.
I appreciate that this is a somewhat hazy idea but would like the council and villagers generally to consider it and perhaps build on it  
Yours,    Merlin
 
Councillors agreed that a meeting should be arranged to from a committee and progress the idea further.
 
15.       Matters for information or the next agenda.
The meeting was informed that three CCTV cameras were being installed at Corner Cottage.

The parish council are to write to the owner of Corner Cottage expressing their concerns.
 
Both sets of signs in Beach Road have been destroyed. Toilets have been emptied in the ditch beside the road.
A letter is to be sent to North Norfolk District Council with asking for action to be taken to prevent a repeat of these problems in future. Copies to be sent to Norfolk County Council (Highways)  National Trust,  Environment Agency and Norfolk Wildlife Trust
 
There was a general discussion on the re-wilding of the North part of the village green.
A clear plan was needed for the aims going forward.

Parish Council reply to the NNDC planning department
 
The letter posted June 10th on NNDC website refers to a letter written on March 4th to Kelling Parish Council outlining details of the proposal. As Salthouse is the site of the mast on the outskirts of Salthouse village it should be incumbent upon them to communicate with us. The delay in receiving this information both from Telefonica and NNDC does not give us the full opportunity to study and comment. The documents listed suggest that this mast is for the benefit of Smart meters only and will not improve the connectivity with mobile phones. So, it is not wanted as it does not solve the problem of poor communication. It is claimed that they have researched many alternatives including the Church tower and dismissed all. They have not gained access to the tower as stated by the key holder. This tower was considered suitable by a previous supplier who did not proceed. There are alternative sites that would give a similar coverage but this company seems unwilling to engage with the local community. They also state that the mast owned by BT, based near Old Women's lane in Cley, is unsuitable. Some of the Salthouse villagers use EE (a subsidiary of BT) and get extremely good coverage for phone signal and 4G throughout the village. Most villagers with BT landline have a backup BT Halo Mini Hub based around EE for in the event of loss of landline. So, their argument at Telefonica does not hold water. The mast, albeit some 2.5 meters lower, will still be visible from around the village and, Salthouse, being a village within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, should not be defaced by a mast in full view and in the wrong place. We are aware of the need for better communication and are very much in favour of it, their proposal is in the wrong place and for this reason we object to the planning application
 
9.         Code of Conduct for Construction workers. The Councillors unanimously agreed that the Cley code of conduct for construction workers should be adopted by Salthouse. The code will be suitably edited and given to owners at the time of submission of a planning application
 
10.       The wording of the advertisement for a replacement clerk was approved by the meeting.
The chairman thanked the out-going clerk for his work over the years.
The committee thanked Mr. Turville-Petre for all his work during his term as a parish councillor. He has agreed to continue to report on the Defibrillator and will maintain the web site until a new clerk is appointed.
 
11.       Parking, white lines/cones update. Highways will install a white H line and wooden bollards opposite the entrance to Corner Cottage and Iona. They will not put in yellow lines.
Cllrs. Vardy and Holliday were thanked for the prompt delivery of no parking cones.
A 20mph speed restriction is very unlikely but it is possible that a SAM2 speed monitor could be loaned for six weeks.

 and twelve members of the public.                                                    J.Stibbons(clerk)

The meeting opened at 7.30pm
 
1. Apologies. County Cllr. S. Butikofer,  Dist. Cllr. K. Ward.

5.   Reports from County, District or Parish Councillors.
Cllr. Harrod reported that the Salthouse duck pond is flooded up to the road as the water is held back at the Cley Reserve. The Cllr. Dawson will make further enquiries.
Cllr. Wright reported that the litter bin on the green needs securing. He will try to remedy this and also remove two posts which are left on the green.
           
6.   Playing Field. The safety inspection book is held by Cllr. Harrod at present.
The steps to the playing field are steep and there is no hand rail. An alternative suggestion was to use the Churchyard footpath.
 
7.  20mph Speed Limit   A reply from NCC Highways to a request for a 20mph speed limit on the coast road was read to the meeting. The reply was as follows:-
 
“While I understand the concerns raised by the parish council, NCC has no funding for traffic management issues which includes speed limit reductions.  We do however have a Casualty Reduction Team that monitor accidents where injuries occur and when they see a pattern forming further investigations will be carried out.  Measures to reduce accidents may then be implemented which could be simple signing and lining or may be a reduction in the speed limit.  This should not be seen as waiting for an accident to occur but directing very limited funding at high rate accident sites.
I have checked our records and can confirm there are no recorded injury accidents along this stretch of the A149.
I appreciate this is not the response you would have liked but do hope it explains the situation.”

8.  Extending Attenborough Walk. There has been no reply to a letter asking for more information.
 
9.  Affordable Housing. Members agreed that the provision of affordable housing in Salthouse was needed. There is a need for more younger people in the village.
A member of the parish had written to say that the proposed site was a habitat for bats.
 
It was noted that when Broadland Housing submitted their planning application for the site they would be required to submit an environmental assessment which should cover this point.
 
A village survey is to be distributed to all residents in the last week of March and will ask for opinions on the best mix of housing types as well as other questions the future needs of the village.
 
10. Planning.  Ref PF/21/0002
Extension to detached garage and insertion of 4 roof light; alterations to existing dormer windows on dwelling including replacing flat roofs with pitched roofs; insertion of first floor window in side elevation. There was no objection to this application.
 
11. Village Green The Police are aware of the damage to plants at Corner Cottage.
It was suggested that one bollard at the entrance would stop any vehicle coming through. This could be a removable bollard which could be locked. Councillors will visit the site and discuss the options available.
The paint is peeling from the inside of the bus shelter. It will need re-painting. This will also be inspected when the councillors visit the area.
 
12. Notice Board  The preference is for an Oak noticeboard. A two door noticeboard is required  and

6. Bus shelter The inside of the bus shelter has been painted and a suggestion box installed.
It was suggested that resident children should have a community art project to decorate the inside of the shelter with their original works. It could start with  a design workshop or art lessons by zoom during the lock down. The idea is to be progressed further.
 
7.  Extending Attenborough Walk  More information is to be sought from  the Norfolk Wildlife Trust on the intended route of any path. Its construction could cause even more traffic congestion in the parish if the path continues to Salthouse.
 
8. Affordable Housing  Mr.  Momford-Smith of the Broadland Housing Association  informed the meeting that the flint wall would be moved back and rebuilt with the original material to improve the access visibility.

9.  Planning Consultation.    PF/20/2390 1, Bloomstiles, Salthouse.
It was noted that the roof terrace, balcony and bay window would over-look other properties resulting in a loss of privacy and would also increase light pollution.
The proposed balcony extends one meter over the footpath and the car port extends into a public area.
The garage will not be used for cars thus causing extra congestion in an already inadequate road.

12. Major Oak Seedlings The parish council have been notified that Sherwood Forest have a
professional interest in the Major Oak- the UK’s most famous tree. There are some acorns from the tree, which have hatched into seedlings and are currently being grown on. The offer is to donate and plant some of these trees to the parish somewhere later this year (winter 2021/22), where they could be appreciated for generations to come. The parent tree is thought to be approximately 1100 years old, so they should have great longevity and interest, as well as supporting a wide range of biodiversity.
The councillors were very interested in this offer. The Heath Committee have been approached but are not interested. Possible sites in the village were discussed and it was decided to consider this further at the next meeting when there has been time for more investigation into a suitable site.

4. Reports
District Councillor K. Ward – The application for a paid car park at Cley visitors centre has been granted with conditional approval for one year. There is an appeal pending on this decision.
If parking fees are introduced permanently it will lead to overspill car parking on the coast road. This was also an issue in Salthouse as paid car parking would tend to send more cars to park in Salthouse village.
North Norfolk have done well during the lock-down. Track and Tracing has been effective.
 
The Planning White Paper soon to be published could have a significant effect on North Norfolk.
 
5. Playing Field.  The RoSPA inspection in June found the seat needed fixing more securely, but to do this the brambles need to be cut.
It was proposed by Cllr. Dawson that the brambles should be cut at a cost of £150. This was seconded by Cllr, Turville-Petre and approved.
When the brambles are cleared the final cut of the grass can then go up to the hedge.
The grass cutting contractor is to be informed.
 
6. Village Green The North side of the green is to be cut this week and the grass raked up. Volunteers have agreed to assist with this task.
 
7.  Request to Install a Memorial Bench.  It was agreed that a memorial bench could be installed on the village green. The parish council would first like to see the design of the bench and the proposed position. The cost of installing and maintaining the bench would be the responsibility of the person making the request.
 
8.  Affordable Housing  terms have now been agreed between Broadland Housing Association and Norfolk County Council to acquire land on Purdy Street for an exception housing scheme. Two schemes for the layout of the houses were suggested.
Broadland Housing Assn. are to be asked to show both options to the councillors in the village hall when the Covid  restrictions are lifted. More information was also needed regarding the access and the road-side wall. Dist.Cllr. Ward will speak to Broadland Housing.
The meeting agreed that the village needed more young families.

·Litter on the green has become a problem as the bins are not emptied as often as necessary.
There is also a problem with litter in Beach Road mainly due to overnight camping.  District councillor Ward will follow this up with the District Council but there is a problem with        Beach Road as the road is too narrow for the bin lorries.
It was suggested that the District Council should provide proper sites for    overnight         camping.
It was noted that Beach Road was named on two web sites as suitable for   wild camping.
The Post Office will install a new poly-carbonate post box in place of the old one. The design was thought very appropriate and approved by the Parish councillors after the meeting.

4. Reports
 
District Councillor K. Ward – Rubbish on the coast has become a major problem since the lock-down has been eased. No toilets are open on much of the coast especially at Morston and Weybourne. It has been necessary to have a continuous rubbish collection on the coast during the weekends. Sometimes visiting the bins two or three times in a day.
Grants of £2.76 million have been given to smaller businesses on top of the £51 million already distributed.
District Council Play areas are closed at present.
The plan is that the power from all the new wind farms in the North Sea is coming ashore at Weybourne. This decision is still being contested.
Cley Wildlife centre has applied to make a charge for parking points. This has not been approved. If charges were made at this site it would encourage parking on the coast road. An agreement on this has been reached for one year.
             
5. Playing Field.
The Playing field is open but the play equipment needs a full risk assessment before it can be used. Equipment to be kept closed at present.
Equipment has been inspected by Playsafe. It was noted in the report  that the seat was not firmly fixed. This will be investigated further and some form of fixing fitted.
 
6. Village Green
It was agreed to allow the North side of the village green to become wild. A cut will be taken once a year and the grass will be raked up. A working party will be organised to clear the grass. This part of the green will not be closed off at present. This will need to be considered further if parking on this area becomes a problem. The situation will be reviewed in two years time.
 
7. The Annual Governance and Accountability Returns 2019-20 were discussed and approved by the meeting.

10. Matters for information or the next agenda.
 
Potatoes have been stolen from the allotments.
 
It was asked if a person who was not a resident of the village could become an allotment tenant.
It was assumed that the same rules applied to those governing who could become a parish councillor – namely that they live in the parish, or they have a business interest in the parish or live within three miles. Further investigation will be made on this point.
 
Letters have been sent to allotment holders asking them to tidy their plots and not burn rubbish.
