Update on Clifton Library - CYC Minutes: · Libraries o New contract in place for Explore from 1st April 2019 to run the Council Libraries for the next 15 years. A new vision for libraries was consulted with residents in 2017/18. The vision for Clifton’s Library Learning Centre will include £2m investment to create a new larger library (like Burnholme). o Clifton’s Library will be a place at the heart of the community with co-located partners, reading café, and community space for community activities and drop-in surgeries from Cllrs as examples. o We also aim to increase opening hours o Over the next year the Council will be working with Explore to identify potential co-location partners. For example; the Clifton Sea Scouts are interested in working with us to be a joint use partner of the new library. o In terms of location, we will be looking across the area for any potential sites and develop a short list of good alternative sites. For example the old Clifton junior school site could be used to create a fantastic Library Learning Centre. o Explore is looking at setting up a Friends group § Link fraud awareness and prevention meeting with Cllrs, a meeting at the library and promotion to set up a Friends of Clifton Library Group.

Have your say! Minutes: · Have Your Say o (Two residents) Tower Court Car Park § Parking on Oakdale Road § 2hrs within a return period § Parking fines being sent to people using a parking space for any use within a period of over 2 hours. (e.g. drop-off and pick-up) § This commonly happens because GP, dentist, shop and other facilities located there often warrant people returning and popping in and out of the car park for brief stays/drop-offs. o (One resident) Green Lane and Beever Dyke cycle paths and Lakeside paths § Can we re-instate the signage § SUSTRANS have not been helpful § Signage the roads as they changed the lamp posts. § Resident really enjoys the cycle paths. o (One resident, on behalf of others as well) § Resident posed a question: Is it illegal to let dogs run free on a recreational ground or a sports ground? § Issue of dog fouling on the Rec grounds § Parish Council working with CYC to resolve – hanging and leaving dog dirt and dog bags § Dog dirt deterrent – maximum penalty/fine signs?
