MOBILE PHONE SIGNAL
The Parish Council are aware that problems have been experienced with the phone signal on various mobile networks. We understand that O2 are upgrading their network locally and they have advised that there would be some disruption to the service on 4th September and, according to their website (https://status.o2.co.uk/), the disruption might continue up to 8pm on 8th September. Some other networks run off O2 so this might be the reason why people on other networks are also experiencing problems. Should you have any further queries you are advised to go to the O2 website via the link above.

COMMENTS FOR CONSIDERATION AT PARISH COUNCIL MEETINGS
Following the latest Parish Council meeting I have been asked to remind residents of the timetable for meetings and the deadline for comments from the public to be considered. All Parish Council meetings are held on the third Tuesday of each month in the Oriel Room at St Ricarius church. Meetings commence at 7.30pm unless otherwise advised and members of the public are welcome to attend. The meeting agenda is published on the website and on all village notice boards on the Wednesday preceding the meeting and any public comments must be advised to the clerk no later than the Monday of that week in order to be included on the agenda and considered at the meeting. No items can be discussed at the meeting unless included on the agenda.
To put this into a practical example, the next Parish Council meeting will be held on Tuesday 19th September. The agenda will be published on Wednesday 13th September therefore any public comments for consideration must be received by the Parish Clerk no later than Monday 11th September.
Public comments must be sent by e-mail to;
clerk@aberford-pc.gov.uk
