The Annual Meeting will be held in St. Andrew’s Church, Oddington on Friday week, 20^th April 2018, starting at 7 pm. Everyone is welcome to attend. I will forward a copy of the minutes of last year’s Meeting and the full agenda for the 2018 Meeting in the few days beforehand. If anyone has any points they wish to raise this year please let me know now so that these can be included in the agenda.

An important topic will be the possible serious threat to Otmoor, and to Oddington, by plans for the Oxford – Cambridge Expressway. I have invited both Tim Hallchurch (our Councillor on the District Council) and Dan Sames (our Councillor on the County Council) to come along if they can. To learn more, and to understand more of what is likely to be said at the meeting, I recommend you look at the website of the Expressway Action Group  – and a summary of Highway England’s present plans. These documents make interesting, if alarming, reading, and will help you understand where we are in the lengthy planning process involved.

Another (but less threatening!) topic will be  the wish of some residents to explore the possibility of bringing mains gas to the village.

Please make a note of the date and do come along. We have important business to conduct, and as ever I need your support.
