Disclaimer, these observations are not the ‘official minutes’ of the meeting.
See agenda published last week on this website: some very interesting points brought up at last Wednesdays meeting:
Update on the Whittlesey & District Neighbourhood Plan (WTC – Cllr Dee Laws) “Further report from AECOM (consultants) suggested that the area could support a further 1,800 homes – This maybe controversial as the town’s services are already stretched”
Speaker from the ‘Metro Bank’ (Branch in Long Causeway Peterborough) told the audience the bank opens 7 days a week. He was asked whether the bank may consider bringing in a Mobile Banking unit to service Whittlesey – Mr Stafford said he would look into it.
Jonathan Digby CEO of the Aspire Learning Trust – Gave the meeting good news that the expansion of the New Road School was about to start. Funds for the expansion of Sir Harry Smith School were being sourced.
OFSTED report into Park Lane School said ‘It was much improved’
