As you know a 'valid' request was actually submitted on the evening of 6th February with over 40 names and addresses of members.

As some committee members did not believe this, they started to knock on residents doors to check whether this was true. To prove it was, we then asked 30 of the people on the petition to physically sign another copy. If it had not been half-term we probably would have been able to collect further signatures. Only when this version was hand delivered to you was it 'validated'.
