Cllr Roy Gerstner – Community Activist

It takes a little time and as usual more than one request, (May this year) however I am informed that the damaged/old litter bin along the Bower Towpath has been removed.

Almost immediately ‘complaints’ started to arrive – Doggies had to carry their ‘Poo Bags’ an extra 25 metres to the next bin…..

As you would expect (from me) I made enquireries straight away and within a couple of hours was informed.

A New Bin will be installed in the same position within the next 10 days when new stock is delivered.

Our project is progressing nicely, and we have received some fantastic feedback.
The ‘Friends Group’ are small but active – would you like to help develop this wonderful
‘Green Space’ area for yourself and children to enjoy….get in contact with me….

(The Recycled Noticeboard)

With reference to the Allison Homes application P/99/2024 (F/YR24/0827/O), WTC have recommended refusal on the grounds it is not in keeping with the Village (expansion).
During their presentation, the offer that WTC take on in conjunction with a management committee the open space land – the Committee declined this offer.
It was suggested that perhaps another group (Friends of The Jubilee Wood) may be interested?

At tonights meeting – P99/2024. Update from Allison Homes on their Reserved Matters application, also the offer to WTC for Public Open Space.

(RG Note) Councils in general are not very favourable on taking on others peoples open spaces and the management structure that is conditioned.
We will wait and see what WTC’s committee tonight may recommend.

(Please be aware that Whittlesey Town Council are consultee’s only on planning matters,
the final decision is made at Fenland District Council, either by delegated powers of Officers or in certain cases by the FDC Planning Committee)
