On-Street Parking: is the issue most concerning residents at present. Parking of vehicles in Woodlands Way, mainly from nearby mobile home sites it seems, has increased since the road accident nearly in Boxhill Road. Residents are pressing for yellow-line parking restrictions. The Committee has discussed the matter with Roof of the World and Hillcrest management who have said there is no shortage of parking space for cars on their sites. There are site licence conditions to consider but drivers of small non-signwritten vans are asked to speak to the management at their site. Unfortunately, this does not apply to people temporarily renting homes at Roof of the World who are not allowed on-site parking. Untaxed vehicles are not allowed on site either. Neither, incidentally, are they allowed to park on the roadway where any untaxed vehicles will be reported to the authorities.

Wanted! Volunteers: Thanks to those who have offered a few hours of their time to help the Jubilee Celebrations and the Fair. More help is needed now! If you are not sure whether you can help or not, why not call Daphne to talk about it? (01737 843644).

Friends of Box Hill: BHCN'S representative was not considered for inclusion in the Committee since applications had to be submitted two weeks in advance of their AGM. BHNC was unaware of this fact when, 12 days before the AGM on 26 January, the decision was made to apply. Chair of FoBH has kindly written to welcome our representative as a visitor at all, otherwise private, meetings.
