What a sorry state of affairs.

I thought Sue's reply was mesaured and sensible to this letter; a large amount of it seemingly based on hearsay and just plain negativity.

It's pretty despicable that some people are constantly attacking the Village Hall Committee - who just offer their time and effort voluntarily for the community.
They got the kitchen for the community to use and put the vast majority of money for it from their own coffers. They didn't do this for personal gain.
And it certainly isn't a 'luxury' - Heavens above! What a stupid thing to insinuate!

All Village Halls have a kitchen.
Those who didn't want our hall to have a kitchen should have spoken up at the time.

Yes, there are no members of the Village Hall committee now present on the council.
Yes, as the community member states most of the original democratically elected members of the council have resigned and most of the current members have been co-opted on.
Read the numerous resignation letters by these individuals and you'd begin to know why.

Looking back at those who have left 4 of them were village hall trustees

The council has 2 ex-village hall trustees, both of who led the committee as chairperson

The minutes show that all of the co opted councillors were proposed by councillor Hewitson

You appear to know the Chair personally as you use her first name in its friendly way and have inside knowledge about the village hall

 There is nothing wrong with serving on both the village hall committee and serving on the community council. All I know is that local people give their time freely on both committees and I am grateful for their efforts.

Many of us know Councillor Hewitson in her community roles, surely we can be friendly with whom we like, or do you think we need to seek your approval first?

Just for clarity The Village Hall and Community Council are totally separate and have no connection. They are run by totally different people. 
There are no Village Hall people on the community council and haven’t been for 2 years.

Does this mean that all funding for the various groups in the village are on hold and therefore being penalised because of this investigation?
