Building Development - Newtownards Road: D.

Youth Group:  R . Campbell reported that she had resigned from the Village Hall Committee and would now be concentrating her efforts towards dedicated youth hall facilities.
D .Montgomery stated that a V.H. meeting tomorrow evening may prove beneficial for the Youth Group and will report back to committee on that issue.  R.

Brown to obtain prices for portable buildings for next meeting.

Pub Quiz: Friday 3rd  March  2006  @  8.00pm Wildfowler Function Room.  M. Brown to organise posters - R. Campbell to advertise in Greyabbey Notes.  All Committee members are asked to arrive at 7.30pm to help set up.

CPLC Report:  B. Workman reported that the provision of policing has changed and that Donaghadee Station no longer covered this area.  The number of community Police Officers allocated to the lower Ards has been increased to 14.  Neighbourhood Watch was discussed and CPLC felt that Greyabbey did not have the crime levels to merit such a scheme.  Next CPLC – AGM to be held in Pebbles Coffee shop  8/3/06 @ 7.30pm.

Other Business: 60s Disco  21st  April  2006 Wildfowler Function Room.  N.
