PARISH COUNCIL REPORT

At the Parish Council meeting in November we received a report from Southern Water's representative regarding the sewerage capacity in Tangmere and the impact of the new housing approved in the village. We were advised that after the Fire Site housing has been built, changes will be made to relieve the flows into the Churchwood Drive holding facility. Concern was expressed about the smells from this facility, and we now have a phone number to call if this occurs again. We also asked for further information about the size of the pipes that carry effluent to the treatment works on the Airfield site.

We also reconfirmed our commitment to the Community Wardens scheme for 2009, but drew attention to the comments from the questionnaire that expressed a desire for the wardens and PCSO's to change their duty rotas in order to facilitate more visible foot patrolling , and cover in the evenings and at week-ends. This will be incorporated into their timetables.

We were also shown the new mobile Speed Indicator Device (SID) that the village could borrow. Despite our reservations about the use of residents to perform basic Police duties, we will be making arrangements to borrow this equipment and perform speed checks along the worst Rat-Runs in the village. This reflects the major concerns expressed by residents, and our new objectives arising from the questionnaire.

The Parish Action Plan was also approved that will guide us in our strategic objectives over the next few years, and form the basis of our responses to the new Development plan from CDC.

The two new initiatives that we have adopted, “Pride in Tangmere”, and “Tangmere goes Local”, will now be worked on. There are many subjects that these initiatives will cover, and we shall be making use of the support and assistance that was promised by many residents in their replies and comments to the questionnaire.

In the last Tangmere News I commented upon the start of the tidy-up at Perrymead. More fool me! I expected a professional job that would comply with the legal notice served upon the owners. Instead the removal of the ivy resulted in the collapse of one of the chimneys. We shall not allow this to continue, and will be pressing for effective action from our planning authority to resolve it. I end with a comment from one questionnaire: “Perrymead is a disgrace”
