Chirbury to Churchstoke (A490) landslip update
It has been wonderful to see how people across our communities have stepped in this year to help others who are struggling as a result of the pandemic. Recently I've been asked a number of times how people can help out to make this Christmas better for local families and individuals who are continuing to struggle. I'm pleased to say that there are lots of ways you can get help and donate to help others - I've collated as many as I can here. Please feel free to share.
Following public consultation, Bedford Borough Council has approved a Public Space Protection Order (PSPO) to tackle street drinking and related anti-social behaviour in the area of Bedford town centre.
After many years of campaigning by Bishop's Castle Councillors, there is finally good news on the future of Bishop's Castle Business Park.
Yesterday the Town Clerk hosted a very useful conf call to review WIltshire Council's initial Draft of their "Local Plan" with respect to Trowbridge. This plan looks at the housing and other plans for Wiltshire from 2026 to 2036 and is a very important planning guidance document. Good points raised on the planned locations for new housing and the infrastructure requirement (schools etc) as well as the requirement for employment land and the need to encourage businesses to come to Trowbridge. This meeting was well attended by current Lib Dem and Independent Councillors. #makingtrowbridgebetter
