REYNOLDS TEAGUE HOMES
MINUTES OF AN ANNUAL GENERAL MEETING OF THE TRUSTEES
HELD ON TUESDAY 22[ND ] SEPTEMBER 2020 AT 11.00 A.M. BY ZOOM
Present:-
Mr Richard Davies Secretary and Trustee Mr Michael Beckett Trustee Mr David Glaisyer Trustee Mrs Helen Keyte Trustee Mr Derek Magson Trustee Rev Martin Short Trustee Mr Paul Teague Trustee Observer: Mrs. Jill Roddan
1. Election of Chairman
Mr Paul Teague was proposed by the Secretary as Chairman for the meeting, seconded by David Glaisyer, and the proposal was carried unanimously.
2. Apologies for Absence
None.
3. Mrs Lamb’s Report
Sue Butt/Driver is the new tenant of number 1 and has not moved in yet and is waiting for carpets to be fitted.
Everyone else seems well. There are no particular problems.
There are some issues with the garden. The old cherry tree has been removed and the gardener is being consulted about a replacement.
You are going away to your sister’s in Lancashire on 10[th] October.
4. Minutes of the last Meeting
These were read and approved.
5. Matters Arising
None.
6. Finances
The Treasurer provided the annual accounts, which were read and considered, and approved and has given an updated figure for the current bank balance, which is essentially the same, somewhat confusingly, since in the meantime the refurbishment of number 1 had taken place and been paid.
Overall, the figures were found to be very healthy which is encouraging.
There are currently total funds of £25,426 available and no outstanding bills.
7. Developments
Derek Magson was thanked for his work organising the refurbishment of number 1. Apparently, all went well with Pyments.
Meryl has a problem with water ingress and Derek was authorised to go back to payments and get a quotation for sorting that out.
The state of the gardening has given a lot of concern. It was decided that David will speak to Steve Bayliss and Jill Rodden will speak to a contractor used for Stow Green to get prices and an idea of when they can carry out necessary work. David Newman is not it seems the person to do this.
8. Communication from David Penman
David has said that he will be happy to come back as Chairman on two conditions, one relating to Trustees signing a GDPR form and the other amending the constitution. The Secretary gave some background to both of these.
Not all Trustees have seen the initial email but it was felt important to consider whether we wanted David back as a Trustee and/or as a Chairman. The general feeling was that he was a desirable Chairman because of his experience and efficiency, although it was also stated that the current meeting was being chaired as well as any in the past.
Derek Magson felt that more meetings were needed.
It was however felt that he would have to come back first as a Trustee and could only then be elected Chairman at the next meeting.
The current Chairman will speak to him about the situation with the agreement of all the Trustees.
9. Merger with Stow Almshouses
Reverend Short gave the reasons why he thought that this was desirable, essentially to help with administration, finding Trustees, compliance matters, pooling resources, and identifying potential residents.
2
There was not a lot of enthusiasm from Trustees, particularly when it was pointed out that Stow Almshouses need £500,000 for improvements. It was also felt that the conditions were different.
However the Trustees felt it was certainly worth considering and keeping an open mind going forward. Perhaps a small working party would be needed.
It was also pointed out that any merger would need some investigation, particularly into accounts, their constitution and to look over their Minutes. A visit would also be beneficial.
10. Any Other Business
-
(i) The bequest from Joyce Gibson of £500 was welcomed.
-
(ii) The five Trustees who have over five years’ experience, R L Davies, M Beckett, D Glaisyer, D Magson and Reverend M Short all confirmed that they would be happy to serve another 12 months and were proposed and passed unanimously.
Jill Roddan was asked to join as a Trustee, and accepted. Her position was ratified, proposed by David Glaisyer, seconded by Helen Keyte.
- (iii) Reverend Short was thanked for organising the Zoom meeting and Helen Keyte for her hospitality at The Limes.
11. Date of the next Meeting
This will be in five to six months’ time on a date and place to be decided.
The meeting closed at 12.30 p.m.
