Notes from May 12th Association meeting

Wednesday, May 27th, 2009

Thanks to all those who made it along


The May 12th meeting included discussions on: i) crime on the high street; ii) how to potentially better organise the Association; and iii) how to feed back the results of the consultation on a new street market. Hopefully the summary below is a useful update.


We’re not making the assumption that people who have expressed an interest in the street market idea necessarily want to receive full minutes of meetings that cover other business alongside the market.


So if you would like to be sent the full minutes of this Association meeting, and other Association meetings in the future, please just email a request to:
