SPEEDWATCH
We have a very successful Speedwatch group operating in Yettington. A group is needed to monitor speed in East Budleigh. If you want to volunteer and especially if you are willing to co-ordinate the group, please get in touch with the clerk at [email protected]. The process is very straight forward. Your group decides when to go out to a road that has been approved by the police, and you record speeds on a simple device. The information is uploaded to a police database. Warnings are sent out by the police to persistent speeders, which can result in the police visiting the offender.

OTHER NEWS
HELPING TO REDUCE FLOOD RISK IN EAST BUDLEIGH
If you own a property adjoining the Budleigh Brook in East Budleigh, you are also highly likely to own part of the adjoining brook, and if so, you are responsible for maintaining the bed and banks of the brook - an essential maintenance task to help minimise the risk of flooding. If you own a property adjoining the brook, please read the document "Help Reduce Flood Risk in East Budleigh". This is important, as if an owner fails to suitably maintain their part of the brook, they may face legal action!
In case of flooding in East Budleigh, new sand bags are now stored at the side storage shed of the East Budleigh Community Shop. If emergency access to these sand bags is required, please contact John Tresidder on 07999 837686 or ask in the Shop
BONFIRES
We ask our Parishioners to be considerate to others when thinking of lighting a bonfire. The smoke can be both irritating and a health hazard. Lighting a bonfire should always be a last resort. EDDC's guidance on bonfires can be viewed here.
