EVRA 2024 AGM – 16th October

16 October @ 7:30 pm – 9:30 pm

The EVRA Annual General Meeting (AGM) will be held on Wednesday 16th October 2024 at Eaton Golf Club starting at 7.30pm where we will formally conduct the business of the Association including presentation of reports and accounts for 2023/24 and election of the Committee. The Agenda for the AGM has been posted on the EVRA website prior to the meeting and copies will also be available on the night together with other reports and the accounts. Any other business must be notified to the secretary at least 14 days prior to the meeting (2nd October 2024).

Nominations for the Committee should be sent to the Secretary, via the EVRA postbox in Waitrose or 54 Greenways, by 13th October and should be signed by the proposed, proposer and seconder. In the event of there not being enough people nominated to fill the available places on the committee, the annual meeting may decide to accept nominations from the floor.

Patricia Seadon has served as EVRA Secretary since the 2013 AGM but will not seek reelection at the AGM. We thank Patricia for her great support over the past eleven years.

So we will be in need of a new secretary for the coming year. The EVRA Secretary arranges the dates for the Committee meetings and takes the notes of the meeting and then circulates these to the Committee via email. The Committee meets bi-monthly so around six meetings a year to document plus the AGM. Please consider joining the Committee and taking on the secretary role. You can express your interest by completing the nomination form below, including a proposer and seconder. We will take nominations at the AGM if there are no nominations beforehand.

Please email Chris Stebbing, EVRA Chair at: evra.vc@live.co.uk, if you would like to know more about the work of the committee and how you can help.

The interval will be followed by discussion on the Norfolk Net Zero Project:

Eaton is one of seven Norfolk communities selected to participate in the project.  The focus of the Project is supporting people to increase energy efficiency, install renewable heat and power, and move to lower-carbon modes of transport. We will hear from two Eaton residents who have moved from gas heating systems to electric and their experiences of this. We would also like to hear from Residents on what you see as the barriers to you adopting such systems for feedback to the Norfolk Net Zero Project Team.
