PARISH COUNCIL NOTES
From the meeting held 16th August 2001 in the
Village Hall
Matters Arising from last meeting
Clay Street - Some residents have cleared the
ditches which should aid drainage but further work to be
left until building construction finished. Safe walkway
to the school - a report on proposed scheme should be
received from Ringway Parkman by end September. BKG are
still parking trailers on the old garage site - being
pursued by SDC Planning Enforcement. Cowesfield Nurseries
- visibility has now been approved adequate by SDC
Planning Enforcement. Missing footpath sign from Common
Road to Blaxwell Lane has been reported; a temporary
yellow arrow marks the spot.
Skateboard Park
A letter of thanks had been received from a
parishioner for the excellent facility.
Environment
A reply had been received from MoD about low-flying
helicopters including a leaflet explaining that realistic
training for low-flying is vital practice for emergencies
where aircraft have to avoid enemy radar. Strict controls
are in place and a full report on the incidents in
Whiteparish to be compiled by the RAF police.
Footpath from Romsey Road to Miles Lane is on a list to
be cleared by contractors.
Planning
The planning approval process has been altered
in August due to SDC staff holidays; PC keeping a strict
eye on this. The PC application for a house on land
adjacent to the Surgery has been refused due to the
access to Common Road. It was decided to appeal to the
Planning Inspectorate on this decision and at the same
time to make another, separate, application to SDC for a
house on the site with access through the Surgery car
park. The money from this development is to be used
towards the Sports Pavilion and the two processes to run
simultaneously to save time. A large camper van parked on
Mr. Webbs old site is being investigated. No permission
is needed for the access being constructed to the layby
on Brickworth Road.
Parish Council Youth Development Officer
The appointment of a PC Youth Development
Officer was raised at the Memorial Ground Trust meeting.
After some discussion, the PC agreed that there was no-one
suitably qualified and that any member of the public can
attend PC meetings to make suggestions for any age group
in the village. There is also an SDC officer especially
appointed to help in such work.
Speeding in the village
The possibility of speed cameras in the village
to enforce the 30 mph limit to be raised at the next
Police Community Consultative Committee meeting in
September.
Funding for classroom extension at School
The PC voted unanimously to donate £1000 to the
school for the building project; in addition, the
possibility of making a loan/bond to be investigated.
Parish Council Website
PC Alan Day has suggested a police page and this
is to be investigated and it is hoped to include a report
on local incidents. This would also appear in PC notes.
Moor Farm Landfill site
Two councillors were appointed to the liaison
group to be formed with the operators CSG (Cleansing
Services Group). It was agreed that CSG could start
landscaping the entrance to the site this autumn.
