President of Connétable, Mr Steve Pallett, presided. Assembly: Convening The Convening Notice was read by the Parish Secretary. Notice: 1. Minutes of The minutes of the previous Assembly of Principals and Electors of the Parish of Previous St Brelade held on Monday 5 March 2018, were adopted as read, and signed, Assembly: following a proposition by Mr Peter Norman which was seconded by Mr John Trafford. 2. Election of The Connétable called for nominations to fill the position of Officier du Officier du Connétable for the Vingtaine du Coin for a term of three years. Connetable Mr Ian Wright proposed Mr Ben Osmand for re-election. This nomination was seconded by Mrs Terri Bond. There were no other nominations. The Connétable declared Mr Osmand duly re-elected as an Officier du Connétable for the Vingtaine du Coin for a further term of three years. The Connétable congratulated Mr Osmand and advised that the date to appear before the Royal Court of Jersey to take the Oath of Office would be Friday 8 June 2018. 3. Election of The Connétable called for nominations from inhabitants of the Parish to act as a Roads Roads Inspectors for the Vingtaine de Noirmont for a term of three years until 30 Inspector December 2020 in conformity with Article 5 of the Loi (1914) Sur la Voirie. Mr Michael Videgrain proposed Mr Anthony (Tony) Harris. This nomination was seconded by Mrs Joan Wright. There were no other nominations. The Connétable declared Mr Harris duly elected as a Roads Inspector for the Vingtaine de Noirmont for the term as stated and warned him to appear in the Royal Court on Friday 8 June 2018 to be sworn in. 4. St Aubin’s The Connétable explained that following the Parish Assembly held on Monday 5 Parking March 2018, the Parish Roads Committee had discussed the comments raised at Proposals that meeting and after further consideration had decided to bring forward three separate parking propositions. Two of these propositions had been agreed by the Mins/Parish Assembly18.05.22 148 Assembly on 5 March. However as the whole scheme had not been agreed, these changes, had therefore not been adopted, but the Roads Committee felt they were generally accepted changes. The changes were: Parking at the front of the Parish Hall (harbour side) which currently provides a 2 hour disc zone proposed to change to 1 hour disc. Le Boulevard currently a 3 hour disc zone which was proposed as a 2 hour disc zone, both of the above had been previously agreed on 5 March 2018. It was recommended by the Roads Committee that the Landslide car park which is currently 12 in 24 and abused by commuters travelling to town by other means, is amended to a 4 hour disc zone with no return in one hour. The Connétable then asked for any questions or comments. Mr Robert Jones asked whether the Parish had obtained ownership of Le Boulevard yet and was advised that this had not yet happened. Mr Jones felt that the changes should not be discussed until the Parish were in ownership of the road. He believed comments made at the last Assembly were that parking matters would be carried forward to the next Connétable and that this looked like the Roads Committee trying to pass it through prematurely as it had still not been discussed with residents or traders in the area. Mr Chris Tompkins asked how many people at the meeting live within St Aubin, several people raised their hands, with some having their own parking. Mr Tompkins asked why people outside of the area should be able to decide on changes to the parking as paycard parking would have a cost impact. He stated the proposed residents parking permit zone was too far away and would be on a first come first served basis. He added that people working in the village were on minimum wage and that further wording should be added to the advisory signs stating that parking discs were available to purchase from the Parish Hall. He did not feel that the proposed changes were needed and that they should be left as they are as he had lived in the village since 1991 and had never had any difficulties with parking. There were no further comments. Mr Michael Videgrain commented that the Roads Committee had listened to the Assembly and what was being proposed was as a result of the comments made at the previous Assembly. The Committee felt it only right that these items were brought back to the Assembly for approval and wished to clarify that the changes did not include charging for parking as all areas would remain disc parking. The Committee were just taking a common sense approach. Mr Videgrain then proposed the item which was Seconded by Mr Eddie Baker. Following a Vote by a show of hands there were 6 votes in favour of the proposition and 48 against. Mins/Parish Assembly18.05.22 149 The Connétable then moved on to the letter from the Minister for Infrastructure dated 27 March 2018 regarding the car parks to the rear of the Parish Hall. The Connétable stated that he felt it was for the Roads Committee and the next Connétable to consider what action to take next and decide whether any negotiation with the new Minister was required. Connétable elect Michael Jackson agreed it was appropriate to advise the Assembly of the letter and he shared concerns regarding its content and pledged that along with the Roads Committee, he would be in discussion with the new Minister and intended to communicate fully with local residents and traders. Mr Jones wished to state to the Roads Committee that residents just wished to work with them and talk to them, as they live here and can contribute to resolving the issues. Mr Alan Breckon asked whether the Minister made these changes by Ministerial Decision (MD). It was not believed to require an MD. Mr Richard Haycock commented that the new discussions would not be with the current Minister. 5. Naming of As a result of a decision taken at the Parish Assembly held on Monday 5 March Parcq du 2018, the Roads Committee had consulted with residents of Parcq du Pont Pont Marquet estate regarding the formal naming of the road leading to their estate. A Marquet poll had been taken asking residents to decide between the new agreed name of Rue Chevalier or that originally proposed of Parcq du Pont Marquet. The results were 46 against the new agreed proposal, 2 accepting the change of name and 11 no replies as at 10 May 2018. The Roads Committee therefore felt that the naming of the road should be brought back to the Assembly in order for the residents to voice their concerns and vote accordingly. Connétable elect Jackson stated that the amendment to the original proposition that he had put forward at the first meeting was done in good faith as former Connétable Jack Chevalier was instrumental in the building of Maison St Brelade. He stated that both he and the Parish should have consulted beforehand and apologised for any oversight. However he would now look for another road to name Rue Chevalier. Deputy Monty Tadier commented that he felt the decision to call the road Rue Chevalier had been made on the hoof and that the quote “nothing about us without us” rang true. Nobody had expected a trivial matter to be amended on the night, and he wondered whether amendments on the night should be accepted as in the States Assembly you had to give notice. He accepted that many decisions made on the night as a result of an amendment would be satisfactory with not all being accepted but maybe the procedure should be reviewed. Mins/Parish Assembly18.05.22 150 The Connétable replied that it would be a retrograde step not to take amendments on the night as that is the current process of Parish Assemblies but that all proposals are taken in good faith. Connétable elect Jackson then proposed a rescindment so that the road name be officially recorded as Parcq du Pont Marquet. This was seconded by Deputy Graham Truscott. Following a vote by a show of hands there were 68 votes in favour and 0 against. 6. Licensing In accordance with Article 5 (1) of the Licensing (Jersey) Law, 1974, as amended, the following application was considered for recommendation to the Licensing Assembly: A. Name: Mr Jose Ilidio Martins de Nobrega th Categories: 6 (Off) Business Address: Midbay Stores Route de la Baie St Brelade th As the application is for a 6 category license there are no reports required. Mr Trafford then said a few words on behalf of the application. Mr de Nobrega was born in Lisbon but had been in Jersey for 30 years and he had worked at Midbay for 11 years. He has applied for an off license as they occasionally receive requests from tourists staying in local hotels who wish to take a bottle of wine back to their room, Mr Trafford lives in the bay and uses the shops facilities often and felt that there was no reason why Mr de Nobrega would not be efficient in supervising the sales of alcohol. The Connétable then asked for any questions or comments.
