As I write this just before Easter, spring is bursting out all over. The weather is lovely and I'm at the Growing Project helping put up the new poly-tunnel most days. We want to get it built quickly so we can get crops growing with all the advantage of this spring weather.
If you are wondering why the Butchers Arms car park is blocked off with massive concrete blocks, this happened after a large number of Irish Traveller caravans camped in the fields behind the pub in the middle of April. After Enterprise Inns, who own the pub, got the authorities to move them on, they have clearly decided it's safer to block everything off.
I've also put a piece in to this month's Parish Pump explaining what the Neighbourhood Development Plan is and where we are the process. This is a very important project for the parish, since if we don't have a plan, new housing developments could be built with very little control.
I'd like to welcome Charles Wadge, from the Queen Vic, to the Parish Council. I think it's very useful to have input from as wide a section of the community as possible.
Don’t forget the parish website st-ive-parishcouncil.gov.uk
with council meeting agendas and minutes; also downloadable copies of the
Parish Pump. For those of you who do Facebook, our St Ive Parish Council page
is still being updated with parish news.
