The Chair led a discussion on ward matters and outside organisations. The following issues were discussed:

 

Royston Town Twinning Association

 

Councillor Ruth Brown advised:

 

·         The Twinning AGM was taking place on the same night as this Committee meeting.

·         The first trip arranged by the Twinning Association in 3 years took place in May and was very successful.

 

Royston First

 

Councillor Ruth Brown advised:

 

·         The BID was looking to install hanging baskets on the High Street, but it has been difficult to figure out the responsible parties. This may not take place until next year as it was too late in the year to install hanging basket successfully.

·         The BID had taken over the town boards (outside the Old Bull and on Angel Pavement) and would be advertising Royston events.

·         There were plans being drawn up to expand the Christmas Lights Switch On event from 2021.
