Hertingfordbury Allotment Association
Hi, a bit late now, but there was a meeting last night to setup a kind of residents association for the hertingfordbury allotments - due to the lack of support in any matters from the council.
Sadly i was unable to attend! Did anyone go? Any news?
Keep an eye on the noticeboard for details!

I am a plotholder at Hertingfordbury and not sure this was about lack of Council support!? I think it was more to do with theft and doing more for ourselves, if I read the notice right. And I thought the meeting was this Sunday?

Yes security is one thing Turnip77. But the meeting was definately told it was last week - I met Mike who is chairing the association.
Anyway it's great news!

Ah ok, well I am sorry I missed it. How many turned up? What is the beef with the Council?

Would have thought that we would get to elect the Chair if we are having an association! [:)]
I would be happy to support this but would be interested to know what the benefits are. Site is pretty well maintained really compared to some.

just to be clear; This isnt to replace the council. This is in addition. So the association will arrange additional facilities above and beyond the little that the council does.
