Two somewhat controversial applications with many objections (and a few in favour) (1) Land on Stonald Road (F/YR23/o1o1/F) – Cllr Nawaz spoke in favour of the residents concerns, however the Committee found NO Planning reason(s) to refuse the application – they noted that FDC should take into account the residents objections & concerns.
(2) (F/YR23/0134F) New Lincs Co-Op Coates – The committee are asking for an extention as concerns about ‘Highways’.

50th Anniversary of The Community Payback Team

I attended the 50th anniversary of the Community payback Team at their Probation Centre in Huntindon last night, the Police and Crime Commissioner also attended along with Magistrates from Peterborough – plus two Peterborough City Councillors.

We used to get the Payback Team regularly when based in Peterborough but rarely see them now. I will in due course liase with other WTC Councillors to see if we can get work done in the community in future.

Our old friend – supervisor Kenny Carrington was there and received an award for his work – he now runs the Cambridge City Team.
