4. From AM Agenda
 
i) Charney Manor Residential 2017

Jane Wilson and Janet Morland will be bringing a proposal on this to Area meeting. They need other friends to act as a steering group, and hope that Street Friends can be found to be part of the group when set up.

ii) QPSW Spring Conference 2016 Swanwick 1-3 April 2016
Area meetings have been invited to appoint and pay the fees of Friends who attend the conference. It is hoped that  Local Meetings will  suggest names of Friends who might benefit from attending.
Sarah Briton would be interested in attending. We forward her name to AM Nominations for consideration

5. Update on appointment of Warden
We had 10 applications for this role.  A selection panel was convened comprising Kevin Redpath (Elder), Janet Morland (Overseer) Richard Clark  (Premises) and Caroline Gould (Assistant Clerk)  4 applicants were invited for interview on November 5th and all have accepted

6. Coffee/flower rotas
We have heard that on the whole the current system is working well. We ask Nominations to review the practical working of the system and to report back to a future Business Meeting. We ask Friends with suggestions to contact members of the Nominations Committee.

7. Creation of the role of Information/correspondence Clerk
The Clerk has requested that we create a role whose purpose is  mainly to receive and distribute information, including creating and circulating the diary We agree to this in principle and ask the Clerk to work on a role description which  our Nominations Committee can use to  find a name to fulfil this role.

8. Request for reports for January AM
We ask for reports from Elders, Overseers, Library, and Premises, for our next Business Meeting  (December 6th unless changed) 
We would like reports form our Children’s and Outreach committees in March.

9. Trustee Minutes  
We have heard AM Trustee Minutes 41/15, 42/15, 43/15 and 44/15. Street meeting wishes to join with the Trustees in thanking Richard Clark and Caroline Gould for their successful work in this situation.

10 Notice board for meeting appointments
We have received a suggestion that we replace the Perspex cover of the Meeting appointments board. We agree to this and ask that receipts for the cost be passed to the Treasurer.

11. “General Meeting” April 2016
We have been asked if Street Meeting will be the venue for a shared lunch on April 17th 2016; followed by a meeting to consider the future, with the Meetings formerly part of our General Meeting. At the last meeting (at Wincanton) there were about 30 people. We are happy to agree to this and look forward to a renewal of contact with a wider circle of Local Meetings
