FEEDBACK FROM OUR PUBLIC MEETING:
The public meeting was well-attended, with residents representing a wide range of concerns. Many participants voiced strong support for the expansion, highlighting the car park’s role in sustaining both the Village Hall, however many also raised concerns about potential light pollution and privacy issues, with most asking for a hedge to be planted.
There was also issues raised over the surface, it became clear that the term “Road Plannings” was not fully understood and a definitive example needed providing. The meeting concluded Outside with a walk around that answered most of the issues.
Following the meeting, a vote was taken and it was unanimously agreed that Phase 1 would include a hedge as shown in the attached document and the tarmac surfacing where the old toilet block was would be completed.
Target timings will be the main car park finished by end of August and the Tarmac targeted within 2025. The Hedge timing will be dictated by planting schedules and is current planned for October.
