His findings will be At last week's meeting,


the committee decided to put the old bakery at 7 Union Street, Low Moor, on the open market.


Conversion costs for this


property would be high, so the committee is to see whether an improvement grant can be made to help any buyer.


Officer Mr Norman Turner said the council could not repair the courts in time for them to be used this year, because it would cost too much. The surfaces needed


substantial repairs and the perimeter fencing was b adly corrod ed a n d dangerous in places. C o u n . B r a i t h w a i t e


(Clitheroe) said it was important to repair the courts as soon as possible, rather than see them in such a state of disrepair. Many keen players had asked her if the courts were going to be ready for the summer. Mr Turner offered to try


and repair one of the courts quickly, but that would cost about £250. A more detailed report


on the state of the courts and the estimated cost of repairs will be presented at the committee’-s next meeting.

Give parishes a better deal —councillor


IT is high time the Ribble Valley Council gave parish councils a better deal when grants are shared out. This is the view of Coun.


Jack Carr (Billington), who told the Recreation and Leisure Committee that there was a tremendous difference between the amount of parishes paid in ra te s and what they received in benefits from the council. He was commenting on a


report by Chief Executive Mr Michael Jackson, who


said that during the last financial year the commit­ tee had distributed £5,000. As a result, said Coun.


£5,000 was paid out last year and it’s not right that parishes should have to come with a begging bowl to the council.” He suggested that a


Carr, individual parishes had to levy their own rates to pay for schemes. “It’s a shame that only


possible solution might be to ask Clitheroe and Lon- gridge to levy a lp rate, giving the money to the borough’s poorer parishes. But Deputy Borough
