August Newsletter

Meet Your Councillors!
In June we decided to trial a Members’ surgery – if you would prefer to raise something with us face to face, rather than phoning or writing to us, you can call in to the Institute from 7.15 – 7.30pm before our monthly meetings (the first Monday of the month) for an informal chat. Of course you are also very welcome to stay for the meeting if you wish!

Wild Camping
We have been concerned about wild camping on the shore over the summer months and are hoping to meet with the RSPB (who own the land involved) soon to discuss how best to deal with any issues e.g. litter, bonfires etc.

Signage
Last year we agreed to pay for the cost of supplying and installing some signage to warn of the dangers of tides and quick sands and we are pleased to say that Lancaster City Council is in the process of fitting the signs (Arnside Parish Council is paying half of the cost of the sign on Cove Road, near Holgates Caravan Park).
