Cllr Roy Gerstner – Community Activist

Given the recent decision by FDC to designate The Three Horseshoes pub as an Asset of
Community Value (ACV), and further to our telephone conversation just now, it appears
pertinent to delay determination of the above application to allow the ACV process to continue.
As such, I would recommend that we delay this application until the next appropriate Planning Committee meeting on 26 June 2024. With an EOT until 3 July 2024 to allow for any decision to be finalised post meeting

Please be aware of the change of venue for this meeting.

RICHARD YOUNG SUITE, BOATHOUSE

You told us you wanted to see us tackling illegal parking around schools in the sector, so that’s what we’ve been doing!

This week we have visited:

  Ten parking tickets were issued this week, with words of advice given to many more.

  
  

  We would like to remind you that you are not allowed to park on a single yellow lines during the hours of operation, which can be found on signs around the area. Anyone found to be doing so may return to a ticket from us.

  This issue continues to be a priority for us, and we will continue these regular patrols at school drop off and pick up times. We can’t be at every school everyday, but we will try to be there as much as we can.

  Do you have any concerns you would like to raise to us? You can do so here.
