Actions from April Committee Meeting

These are the main ones and some are urgent.  The full minutes will follow

Control stakes etc.

We agree to the purchase of additional equipment as needed by the Twin peak planners.  This particularly includes stakes and holders for si boxes.  There was some discussion about the best type and source of stakes and how number should be fixed to make them visible from both sides.  The stakes used for the JK in Scotland were mentioned and it was reported that suitable ones were available from Sport Ident.  Committee approved a maximum budget of £2,000 to cover the cost of purchasing this equipment as we should try to ensure that our planners lives are not made unnecessarily difficult.  We also recognised that the planners may need assistance in preparing or putting out the controls.
