## **5. MINUTES OF THE 2022 AGM** 

RESOLVED: That the minutes of the 2022 Annual General Meeting be accepted as a true record. 

There were no matters arising. 

## **6. CHAIR’S REPORT** 

## Thanks 

We would like to take this opportunity to thank Malvern Goodall for his many years of service at the helm, having taken over from David Milnes. He can’t escape that easy as we will be relying on his wealth of knowledge and expertise in his new role as Vice Chairman. 

Thanks were also given to Jane for managing the Community Centre, and to the Learning Centre who are always on hand to let tradespeople in or new hirers wanting to look round. 

## Premises 

As Andrew Morris, our caretaker, is no longer living in Crosland Moor, we don’t have anyone to open up and lock up + he doesn’t drive!  Jane has been doing this for those occasional hirers who don’t want to stay late, but the latest lock up time is 8pm. However, Andrew has continued to visit the premises twice a week to put the tables up and take them down at the end of the week. 

The CCTV was upgraded and we had an extra camera fitted, so that we have 3 cameras in total. 

Following Lynne’s retirement, we appointed Sparkle Cleaning to clean the premises. 

The gas cooker was decommissioned and replaced with an electric oven. 

Citron Hygiene have installed a nappy bin and 3 sanitary bins. 

There are 7 external maintenance items that are in need of repair. We are still negotiating with Kirklees Council to get the work done as this currently falls within their remit. A roofer has provided costings for this work estimated at £2,090. 

In addition, there is a crack on floor of Learning Centre resulting in water ingress. A contractor has quoted £1,276.80 to repair. This also falls within the remit of Kirklees Council. 

## New Hirers 

New hirers include Adrienne Lake from Trust Yoga who use our premises on a Thursday evening and Sheila Frampton of Chi-Chi Fit who currently use our premises on a Monday afternoon.

## Grant requests 

We have two projects that we are looking for financial assistance with: 

1. The external doors and rotten windows in the Learning Centre also need replacing, we have received an estimate for £6635.00 + VAT. 

2. The Learning Centre have outgrown their premises and are in desperate need of more space. An architect has prepared some plans with a view to providing separate office space where the existing ladies toilets are.  The toilets would be relocated, providing one unisex toilet and one disabled toilet.  The estimated cost is £22,725 + VAT. If anyone wants to look at the plans, we would be happy to show you after this meeting. 

We approached Asda for a grant but were unsuccessful. 

We are currently in the process of preparing an application to the Trustees of the Moorfield Trust for both of our projects.  Their next meeting is in August. 

## Charitable transfer 

On 5 July 1926, the site was left in trust for the people of Crosland Moor under a Deed of Gift.  Kirklees Council advised us around 5 years ago that they could no longer foot the bill for the external repairs. 

In 2011 our lease expired. We have agreed in principle to take on a new long-term lease on a full repairing and insuring basis, which would mean that we will be responsible for the repair of both the external and internal areas of the building. The matter will be discussed at the Council’s Cabinet meeting in August.  In the meantime, we will be appointing Ramsdens to assist us with the legalities. 

## **7. TREASURER’S REPORT** 

The 2022 accounts, audited by Relative Accountancy, were tabled. 

The main areas of concern that were highlighted were the (i) missing Moorfield Trust funds and (ii) the huge increase in gas consumption.  Jane agreed to carry out an analysis into the gas bills. **ACTION: JM** 

RESOLVED: That the 2022 accounts be accepted. 

## **8. HIRERS’ RATES** 

Our hire costs have not changed for quite a number of years.  As we experienced a loss this financial year, compared to the previous year, it was agreed that hire costs should be increased to also cover the higher gas/electricity costs. 

- Thornton Lodge Community Centre charge £33 for the hire of their hall 

3 



- Milnsbridge Village Hall charge £15/hour for regular hirers; £20/hour for occasional hirers, or £50 for 3 hours (which includes half an hour set up/tidy up at the end of the hire). 

- RESOLVED: That with effect from 1[st] August, our hire costs be changed to: £15 per hour for regular hirers 

   - £20 per hour for occasional hirers 

## **9. ANY OTHER BUSINESS** 

There were no items of Any Other Business to be discussed.
