The Ottermans Saga Continues- Update #2

Some 5 months now since the fire at the ‘Ottermans’ take-away Broad Street/Market Street.
The issues of road closure/traffic control is carried out by Cambs CC Highways.
The building is at this moment still deemed unsafe and thats why the barriers are still in place.
The barriers do not belong to FDC or CCC but by someone called Humphries.
I can assure everyone, that Fenland Councillors have and on the case regularly.
Below is an update we received later yesterday (Tuesday).
I have made phone calls todays and there at this moment nothing further to add.

The Highways Supervisor has today been advised by CNC building control that providing the owners remove the rubble from the roof and check their boarding is secure, CNC will be happy for the traffic management to be removed and the path opened.  There will be a further update tomorrow and of course this is down to the owners doing what is necessary.

CNC provides the building control functions for the Local Authority areas of South Norfolk, King’s Lynn and West Norfolk, Fenland, Norwich City and Broadland. Building Control is a statutory requirement on the vast majority of building projects (including internal alterations and conversion works) irrespective of whether planning permission has been required or not.

Labour Has Its Own Problems

Being fair as I try to be, the loss to the Conservatives in Peterbough may well have its ongoing fallout. That said I am aware (asked not to name)? Two senior Labour activists have recently resigned from the local Labour Group.

Oh dear – dear – dear – What-Ever Next – !!!!

Peterborough is a great deal different than we in Fenland. I give acknowledgement that Cllr Chris Harper (Peterborough-Stanground South) is probably one of the hardest working Councillors I know within The Unitary Council. He like myself is very passionate in his area.
Some very toxic comments on his FB page.

Tonight he has resigned from the Conservative Party and has …..crossed over to being an Inpependent….. something I do no always agree with, half way through the term, either you stand Independent or you go back to the electorate and get them to mandate your change….
Anyway I hope and wish Chris Harper well in his ‘new neutral color’

Deja-vu – some old hands will remember one of our senior Councillors Martin Curtis had similar issues at Fenland District Council – Martin resigned but has never crossed the floor.

Doing Our Bit…

Yes Connie & are doing our part…

Christmas may be the most wonderful time of the year, but it’s also the most wasteful.
In the UK alone, we create up to a whopping 30% more waste than usual during the festive period. Most of this ends up in landfill, damaging the environment.
With climate change so high on our planet’s agenda, Christmas is not a time to take our eyes off the ball.

So, what can you do when the festivities are over?

From how to recycle wrapping paper and cards to responsibly disposing of your Christmas tree, we have the answers on
how to green up your Christmas waste.

You Can Send Dashcam Footage To Cambs Police

Do you have a dashcam fitted to your vehicle? Did you know can report dashcam footage to us? 📸

Since the beginning of the year, members of the public have been submitting dashcam footage to us, resulting in 228 Notice of Intended Prosecution (NIP) letters being sent to drivers across Cambridgeshire.

The Bedfordshire, Cambridgeshire and Hertfordshire tri-force team have now released a compilation video of the dashcam footage submitted which secured the prosecution of dangerous drivers across the three counties.

If you capture poor driving behaviour on your dashcam, please submit the footage online to us within ten days of the offence. These videos are then reviewed to confirm an offence has been committed and that the offender’s registration plate is clearly visible for identification purposes.

To submit dashcam footage and for further guidance, please visit the reporting pages of our website here https://bit.ly/3F6YTXu

Thanks & Merry Christmas – PCC Darryl Preston

From Police and Crime Commissioner, Darryl Preston

Having been in post for just over six months, I am honoured to serve local residents across Cambridgeshire and Peterborough.

2021 has continued to bring its challenges with the pandemic still very much among us, however I continue to be impressed by the strong sense of community spirit that exists in our county.

I would like to thank you for everything you have done to support our police officers, staff and volunteers over the past 12 months and look forward to working with you to deliver the key priorities within my recently launched Police and Crime Plan.

Myself and my team wish you a very happy, peaceful and safe Christmas and all the best for 2022.
