The flagship site in Fornham Road will replace the current recycling centre at Rougham Hill, Bury St Edmunds. The new centre will be the first open air site in Suffolk where all containers can be accessed by the public from ground level, removing the need for struggling up steps. Visitors will be able to recycle the same wide range of materials currently available at the Rougham Hill Recycling Centre. A charity Reuse shop, which will take materials suitable for reuse from recycling centres, will also be opening on the site towards the end of the year. • Suffolk’s care homes have improved markedly in recent years so that the Care Quality Commission now rates more than 87% of our care homes as good or outstanding. • The local government boundary commission for England is reviewing Suffolk County Council to bring the divisions into line as the population size can vary from just over 5,000 to nearly 9,000. Currently there are 75 County Councillors. The number will be cut to 70. The decision to reduce to 70 means division sizes will be about the size of the existing Clare division but she expects there will be changes in the make-up of the division. • Suffolk Trading Standards are warning people not to participate in sharing an Argos giveaway post claiming that everyone who shares and takes part will have a chance to win £1,000 in vouchers. The post is currently circulating on Facebook. This post is fraudulent and has no connection to Argos. • She is no longer portfolio holder for Highway. She has now taken over the role of cabinet Member for Children’s Services, Education and Skills. She has launched a review of the implementation of the new home to school transport policy which is being led by Suffolk’s Fire Chief Officer Mark Hardingham. She is also focussing on children’s mental health, improvements to the support we provide to the young people leaving care and provision for more school places for children with SEND. • The area in Lady’s Green where Anglian Water has a storage depot its current work in the area will be visited by the Network Technical Manager for Suffolk County Council. Anglian Water has been told that they need to keep the road clear of mud. 8. Police issues There were no police issues to report. 9.

It was also agreed that receipt of the recycling credits would be transferred to the Village Hall Management Committee. It was resolved that the precept increase would be £7,932. This is an increase of 36.67% which equates to £18.07 per annum per band D household. The parish council element for a band D household will be £67.35 per annum an increase from £49.28. The contribution to the village hall will be reviewed annually. It was also resolved that details of the proposed increase would be included in the neXt newsletter with an explanation as to why this decision has been made. In the recent village survey, of the 74 households which returned the survey, 82% thought it would be fair that ongoing annual costs for maintaining these facilities be shared among Ousden residents by an appropriate increase in the precept. h) Additional financial support for the village hall See 9g above. i) Recycling credits See 9g above. j) Possible subscription to Scribe for new accounting software. It was resolved that the Council would subscribe to Scribe’s accounting software for parish councils for one year initially. It will be a single user licence shared between the clerk’s six parish councils. The cost will be £56.16 including VAT (LGA 1972, s111). k) SLCC membership – cost £76 per annum It was resolved that the Council would not subscribe to SLCC as the cost is too high, particularly as Ousden Parish Council already subscribes to the Suffolk Association of Local Councils.

  • February 2019 Newsletter
    for Issue Feb 2019 Connecting Communities ince becoming leader of Suffolk County Council, I have continued to keep broadband at the top of my agenda. I am pleased to tell you that the Better Broadband for Suffolk program has Sreached a new milestone, 93% of homes and businesses across Suffolk can now upgrade to a Superfast Broadband service. This is fantastic news and means an overwhelming majority of residents, businesses and organisations can now enjoy the benefits of faster and more reliable internet speeds. But as a resident and a councillor of a rural ward where some premises still do not enjoy these benefits, I know we have further to go. We already have a contract in place for Openreach to extend fibre broadband coverage to 98% of all Suffolk premises by 2020. But even beyond this, we are committed to reaching 100% Superfast Broadband coverage in Suffolk as quickly as possible. So, if you haven’t already done so, check if Superfast Broadband is available where you live by following the simple steps below, but don’t forget, even if broadband is available, you will need to upgrade your connection to enjoy the benefits of the higher speeds. I look forward to updating you on our future progress. Cllr. Matthew Hicks Leader of Suffolk County Council and Cabinet Member for Economic Development and Infrastructure Here are three simple steps to upgrade Step 1 Finding out whether Better Broadband is available to your postcode Visit our website at www.betterbroadbandsuffolk.com/upgrade-now. Just having the ability to connect doesn’t mean you automatically have Superfast Broadband.

  • Records Relating to the 1939 – 1945 War
    Records Relating to the 1939 – 1945 War This is a list of resources in the three branches of the Record Office which relate exclusively to the 1939-1945 War and which were created because of the War. However, virtually every type of organisation was affected in some way by the War so it could also be worthwhile looking at the minute books and correspondence files of local councils, churches, societies and organisations, and also school logbooks. The list is in three sections: Pages 1-10: references in all the archive collections except for the Suffolk Regiment archive. They are arranged by theme, moving broadly from the beginning of the War to its end. Pages 10-12: printed books in the Local Studies collections. Pages 12-21: references in the Suffolk Regiment archive (held in the Bury St Edmunds branch). These are mainly arranged by Battalion.
