Apologies, a little tardy, but here's a brief update on what was discussed at the last Full Council meeting. We had a discussion about recycling (see seperate blog post on where things are at) in the village and possible options. In the District Council report, Cllr Colvey provided details of some things going on in Wareham: There will be some maintenance work carried out on the Wareham Walls; the Core Strategy (which appears to have got away with not referring to the Lytchett Minster new town development) sets out some new houses and a supermarket in Wareham. Cllr Fred Drane's County Council report including details about work on the Twin Sail Bridge in Poole, concerns over the lack of gritting during the snowy period (particularly as some of our salt reserves got sent to Bournemouth rather than used to help get the Manor school open). Fred also commented that its important that the extra bus that has been put on to take pupils from Lytchett Matravers down to Lytchett Minster school gets as much use as possible otherwise there is a risk it will be withdrawn. We were also informed that Huntick Road down by the Courtyard Centre will be shut between 15th February and 8th March due to public works. |
