W W Dawson Secretary Chairman: Meriel Connor Clerk: Janet Potter 29 March 1999 Mrs J Horsley BVHMC Chairman Bridge Dear Janet VILLAGE HALL I have been asked by the Parish Council to write to you about the lighting in the village hall. The request is that low-level wall lighting be installed as the florescent tubes are rather severe. I have also been asked a question concerning wheel-chair access to the village hall. I understand that a parishioner has difficulty gaining access to the hall when she visits the Fish Scheme events. Could you let me know if the village hall has whee1—chair access and if so which is the designated entrance. Finally, as a result of a recent test case, it is no longer possible for the Parish Council to purchase items on behalf of the Management Committee for use in the village hall and reclaim the VAT. I am still willing to purchase items through KCC but will hand over the invoices to Mervyn for direct payment. However, you may prefer to set up your own delivery point number with KCC. Hope you’re settling into the new house.

After considering the possibility for its use and the different activities in the Hall, the Management Committee have decided that this is nor really a viable proposition. It would be fairly expensive exercise and with the possible purchase of part of next door, We feel it could be reviewed at a later date.
