Look for the sun!
We’ve been promised a good summer after two wet ones so let’s hope it starts now especially to support all the events advertised within these pages. We also have the results from the June elections.

Bill Chapple
Wendover & Halton
Through your pages, may I say thank you to all who supported me in the recent County Council elections. I thoroughly enjoyed meeting so many people in Wendover and Halton during the election campaign, and I am very grateful for your support and encouragement.
I will do my very best to represent everybody in our two villages, no matter what your political persuasion, and look forward to working with you all for the benefit of our two communities.

It’s now back to work with a vengeance and, of course, the first thing to tackle is the survey on residents’ parking that I promised would happen immediately after the election. By the time this is published, survey letters will have been delivered to residents in those streets being considered for such a scheme. In addition, to give as many people as possible the opportunity to respond, the survey is being made available electronically and can be accessed at www.tinyurl.com/mclayton. The closing date for the survey is 22nd July, and responses may be returned via the collection boxes in Wendover Library and in the Clock Tower.
