Measham Developments - Parish Council Meeting

I will put the full report here over the weekend
All a bit tricky at the minute, I want to see the Parish Council Minutes


Gone for ever?


The Parish Council Chair Jason, did say the Meeting on the Tuesday was never going to be an open questions meeting.
Opportunity missed, but then we should be able to organise another

So this is meant only as a bit of an update for now

The Parish Council unanimously passed NOT to accept the Accesses onto the new development from the High Street and Burton Road and any closure of the footpaths

Only two Parishioners were there, one gave an emotional and passionate address, as detailed in my previous blog post.

I want to give an accurate report on this Post, so I need to think about what I saw and heard

A special thank you to all that attended the Tuesday meeting, but unfortunately this is only the beginning of a Measham fight back

Also for the messages of support.

I did not talk to Geoff Pursglove, so has anyone got any feed back on his position and reasoning for deviating away from the core objective for bring the Canal back to Measham?

Stay tuned, Im trying to understand the 550 house in Measham statement?

Other stuff

Tom Neilson was there and confirmed he was calling in the application
Geraint Jones arrived after the open Parishioner discussions


Still mystified how many people I meet with know clue about this housing development, perhaps we need to redistribute the Measham Messenger, I don't know the answer to this problem
Is it me? I have talked to folk who are telling me how they would enjoy a cycle ride from the Wharf down the Towpath all the way to Snarestone, well it's a nice idea, but these people are in their 70's so not going to happen any time soon, and it's NOT a canal in Measham it's a trench
I am also going to have a rumours page, not as a tribute to Fleetwood Mac, but some of the most obscure ones going about - £50k each to the residents of Chapel Street for the new access - come on.
