No: 20/01527/FUL | Received: Wed 25 Nov 2020 | Validated: Mon 30 Nov 2020 | Status: Awaiting decision North Leverton Parish Council noted that this application makes no reference to the Sturton Ward Neighbourhood plan, which even though in draft form should have an impact on all planning applications, particularly with reference to Design Codes to ensure that any new house is in keeping with the styles within the village. The Parish Council does not feel able to make a considered response to the application until the SWNP has been considered by the applicant and any amendments which may be necessary are made. In addition the location of this proposed property is in a flood plain and the Planning Department rejected all sites proposed for the Neighbourhood plan in this area on that basis. The Parish Council would have serious concerns regarding flooding for this property as well as overloading even further an infrastructure which is currently not coping.

Police Report PCSO Airey submitted his report and noted that there were no reported crimes in North Leverton during December. This month there has been three reported crime of interest across the whole beat area. This compares with one crime reported throughout November 2020 and three crimes in the same month last year. From 01/04/2020, there have been fifty three crimes of interest reported across the beat area. This compares with sixty nine reported in the same period last year. As such, at the conclusion of the ninth month in this tracking year, these figures equate to a decrease in reported crimes of interest of sixteen crimes. Please continue to report crime - and incidents - through to our control room on 101, or 999 as appropriate. Even in these most difficult of times, where possible, reported crimes will be dealt with in the same way as they have always been recorded, and dealt with. Please remain aware of any suspicious persons, vehicles and activity in the area and continue to report such instances through to our control room, as normal. Nottinghamshire Police recently started using a new system for recording incidents. As from February 2020, the Police report will include anti-social behaviour incidents only, negating other incident types from this category, such as hoax calls to the emergency services, found/ abandoned vehicles and wildlife/ animal issues. Again, these figures should, therefore, start to decrease but will be more accurate in relation to actual anti-social behaviour incidents on the area. This month there have been no reported incidents of anti-social behaviour across the whole beat area. This compares with three reported incident for November 2020 and four reported for the same month in 2019. Some auto crimes are being reported across adjoining beat areas, and historically across this one, which could be prevented by adopting basic security measures around vehicles. Some vehicles are still being left insecure overnight and, in cases, items which are attractive to criminals are being left inside on full view to the same. In some cases, small car accessories, such as sat nav systems, and personal phones are attractive to criminals. However, in other cases loose change or, even, bags of sweets are too irresistible for them. There are criminals out and about who randomly visit villages in order to check on vehicle insecurities. They will try door handles of vehicles of vehicles parked on the public highway or on private driveways. Some vehicles, particularly in the colder weather, are being left with the keys in the ignition and the engine running. These instances might only be occurring for very short periods of time, such as when visiting the local shop or, indeed, when collecting the vehicle from a garaged area. Criminals only need a very short period of time to steal vehicles when opportunities such as these arise. Some criminals will monitor individuals’ movements and habits before targeting their vehicles. Please do not be caught out as the consequences could be a long and stressful claim to the insurance company who may not honour the same due to the circumstances. I appreciate that in the last couple of Police reports, I have commented on some of the activity fraudsters are using to exploit community members. In the last couple of months I, too, have received communication from fraudsters, once by my landline telephone number and the other via E mail. The first related to me being approached to pay an increased subscription to renew an Amazon membership contract. Having spoken to a few people locally, they too have confirmed that they have received the same call mentioning the same increased contract renewal fee, even when they have no contract to start with.
