ABOUT US

The primary role of Tredegar Allotment Holders’ Association is to manage the Tredegar allotment site, which is accessed via King Edward Avenue or Marcet Road in West Dartford

Membership of the Association is limited to those holding a signed tenancy agreement for the Tredegar allotment site.

The AGM will be held each April. All members are expected to attend.

At the AGM, a Committee consisting of three equal members shall be nominated by the membership. The make up of the Committee should, where possible, reflect its membership in terms of age, gender and ethnicity.

Each person wishing to stand for the Committee must be proposed by two members. Appointment for what will be a 12-month term will then be via popular vote.

At each AGM, the existing Committee will step down and seek re-election where appropriate. However, membership of the Committee is limited to three consecutive years, with no right of return within two years thereafter. The aim, where possible, is to ensure that at least one new member replaces an incumbent Committee member each year.

The role of the Committee is to implement policy adopted by the membership and to interface with appropriate officials at Dartford Borough Council and with other service providers.

Annual accounts will also be presented to the membership at each AGM, where any other business pertaining to the Tredegar site will be discussed in open session.

In addition to the AGM, extraordinary general meetings of the Association can be held at the discretion of the Committee. Alternatively, should 8 or more members of the Association wish to request an EGM, the Committee will do its best to expedite this as soon as possible.
