Parish Council

Report from Parish Council Meeting held on Tuesday 5 March 2013

"Only two residents attended this month’s fairly uneventful meeting. The main items of interest were as follows:

Village Green
It is intended to reset some of the concrete ‘stones’ around the green and space them out to include the area where the temporary traffic cones are presently sited.  County Councillor Marianne Overton will be coming on Saturday 20 April at 10.30 to officially hand over the new Parish Council Notice Board that was part-funded by her.

Nocton Hall
Three of our Councillors met recently with NKDC and the company “Living Villages” who are tentatively looking at the Nocton Hall and the old hospital site with a view to putting together a proposal for the development of this whole area.  The company’s thinking is, however, at a very early stage and its initial ideas had not been worked up in any great detail.  A further meeting will, therefore, be held between Parish Councillors and North Kesteven to see to what extent they fit with the agreed Options Appraisal and how they might be taken forward.  We are, therefore, clearly some way from seeing a final resolution of this long-standing matter.

Further information on this company is available on its website at www.livingvillages.com.

Road Closures:
  • Wellhead Lane – between 8.00 a.m. Friday 29 March at 08.00 and 8.00 a.m. Saturday 13 April
  • B1202 – between 8.00 a.m. Saturday 13 April and 5.00 p.m. Saturday 25 May
Your Parish Council is endeavouring to find out where the diversions are going and how this affects the buses and further information will be made available when known.

And finally………
For those of you who read the Sunday Times you will have seen the article on Sir James Dyson and Nocton.  If not you can view it on line – Sunday 3 March.  The Times’ reporters must have read our very own Doodle from where some of the information in their report was taken.  Well done Mr Hewitt!

Next Meeting Tuesday 2 April at 7pm.

Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend so a fellow Councillor will write the April report.

Councillor MaryAnn Williams"
