VILAGERS TO VOTE ON HALL PLAN
The poll has been organised to establish whether Newick residents support the provision of a new village hall on the site adjacent to the Old Telephone Exchange.
Voters will also be asked whether they would support the Parish Council making a contribution towards the cost, in the form of grant that would go to the Village Hall Management Committee. A contribution of 50,000 borrowed over 25 years would mean a Council Tax increase for Newick residents of 3.13 per household a year on a Band D - this would amount to 31 pence per month.
The poll was originally requested at a Newick Parish Meeting on 15 June 2006.
The counting of ballot papers will take place at the conclusion of the poll at the Newick Community Centre.
