- Speed and horse signs
- NI in communications with Lincolnshire council, both still ongoing.
- SM received a request from a resident to add dog waste bins in the village. We previously had 2 supplied by Lincolnshire Council but there were issues with collections and bins overflowing. They advised to remove them and provided an extra refuse bin with a weekly collection, dog waste to be added to regular bins and signs to be put on. Could potentially add an extra bin at the entrance of Ludborough Park, needed to ensure Lincolnshire Council can provide and collect it.
