Rochdale Rights of Way -
Irene stated that whenever we do an upgrade whoever is leading it must share
with the Committee where they are up to and make sure everyone is happy with
it. Evidence must be analysed to make
sure it is of a good quality. She has a
useful leaflet from Natural England which she will forward to Gill to put on
the website. IP/GM
It was agreed that we should pull the report on Northdene Drive from the
Township Meeting on 4th October and re-submit our claim once we have
further good evidence.
We need Helen to formally hand over ownership to Pat. The next Rochdale ROW meeting is on 21st
September. PT suggested speaking to Liz
McInnes.
GM to progress the Norden paths now she has more time. GM
