The managing architect has just reported that “works are proceeding well and currently on programme. Workmanship is good.”
Now we have to start paying the bills. In the last few weeks over 40 local residents have responded to requests for the money they promised last year. Over £6,600 has been contributed so far. A few more donations are expected.
Other promises include:
£50,000 from the Trust for Oxfordshire’s Environment and the Waste Recycling Group through the Landfill Communities Fund. (This includes £5,500 contributed towards TOE’s expenses by the District Council).
£27,000 through Southern Oxfordshire LEADER, half from the European Union and half from DEFRA.
£8,750 from the County Council
.
£9,020 from the Parish Council.
