Rossington Parish Council Questionnaire ROSSINGTON PARISH COUNCIL QUESTIONNAIRE VISION We want Rossington to be a prosperous and successful place to live, work and play 187 local residents responded to the questionnaire with 169 (90%) feeling this did sum up the vision for Rossington with 18 (10%) disagreeing or offering their own vision. VISIONS OFFERED • We need to make Rossington a place that we are happy to live in and people want to visit. This would generate spending and contribute to improvement on a continuous basis. • We want Rossington to be a safe, attractive, cleaner and better place to live, work, visit and play. • Rossington, a safe, caring community enabling self and others to thrive and prosper in every area of life. • Rossington should be a safe and healthy place to live, not what it is becoming - an overcrowded and gridlocked mayhem of stagnation and council bureaucracy. • We want Rossington to be a place where residents can prosper and live in peace. COMMENTS • I've lived in Rossington since November 1998 and love it here (moving up from down south). Loads of improvements have been made, especially in the last 8 years, all for the better. • Whilst I agree with the above statement, I cannot see it being achievable until more jobs are created that give a decent wage, along with more affordable housing. • Depends which are you live in. King George’s Road could be better. • Rossington must be as big as Armthorpe and yet Armthorpe has many more shops and 2 banks whereas Rossington has very few shops and no banks. As Rossington is expanding I thing he priority should be more facilities. • I would like to see Rossington as a clean and fun place to live with no crime or rubbish around our village. No to waste down Bankwood. HOUSING Of the 176 people who responded, 34 (19%) are very satisfied with the availability of housing in Rossington, 69 (39%) are satisfied, 38 (22%) are not very satisfied with 35 (20%) feeling the question is not relevant to them for a variety of reasons such as they own their own house, they haven’t thought about it so cannot comment, they work but don’t live in Rossington. ACCESSIBILITY • Parents and children should have a house with enough bedrooms for each child if they have girls and boys it is very wrong for a girl to be in the same room as a boy until they reach the age of 12 children these days need privacy. • My son has been looking for a 2 bedroom flat/semi and the choices seem quite limited. • Having served in the Army for a number of years I am very dissatisfied that I couldn't get a house in the village for 2 years after leaving. • Yes, go back to the old system to get a council house because there's no chance of getting one unless you come from Eastern Europe. • Just because you're unemployed or asylum seeker with kids why should you get preference over hard working families were all struggling. • More a general statement - I think long-standing (7yrs+) tenants should get discount on buying new build houses, and therefore able to give the council homes to new tenants cutting back on lack of council properties. • Would want our children and grandchildren to be able to have a home in Rossington no matter what type. That won't be possible unless it's affordable. TYPE OF HOUSING NEEDED • Not enough single people housing ie flats. • More housing for bigger families (affordable). OTHER COMMENTS • YES, the Council house STILL NOT COMPLETED after modernisation outside. • I believe that the developers of the proposed Golf Course and related housing should be making an appropriate financial contribution towards the provision of off-site affordable housing within Rossington ie 25% - 30% provision in accordance with DMBC policy. They should also contribute towards public open space/play provision, education, medical and highway infrastructure improvements within Rossington. These to be secured by means of appropriate Section 106 Agreements. • Everything could always be improved - make the most of. TYPE OF HOUSING TYPE OF HOUSING NEEDED • Council Housing. • Bungalows!!! • More Council bungalows. • None of the above. • We need more bungalows in Rossington. We need more bungalows for rent to older people whether or not they own a house. As people get older they sometimes find it hard to manage financially and houses are too large. Bungalows are more expensive to buy than houses. So more affordable bungalows would be idea. • There isn’t enough social housing. There needs to be council houses built – that cannot be purchased! • We need houses with bigger gardens. • I think this village would benefit from cheap housing. • Could do with more housing association housing and lots more affordable houses. • 2 bedroomed housing. • Not enough social housing. • Needs to be a variety of the above to meet different needs. • I own a house in Rossington and have never looked into the availability. • Any job opportunity in Rossington will be positive. OTHER COMMENTS • Prevent development on greenbelt sites. • New developments that are built, a proportion should be rented out to local people only, often they are bought en block by large companies who then leave them stood empty because they expect to get higher national rents rather than realistic local ones. • New houses keep being built but are much too expensive for first time buyers. We need affordable homes for young people and families. Don't know of any job vacancies in the village. • Tenants should be made to maintain the outside areas. • Everything at the moment is too dear for what's on offer. • Wherever possible, larger gardens would be an asset, due to families with children. EMPLOYMENT Of the 187 residents who responded to the questionnaire, 77 worked full time, 31 part-time, 37 were retired. Nineteen people were looking for work, 3 were not looking for work, 8 people not able to work and 6 people being self-employed. TYPE OF EMPLOYMENT NEEDED • More jobs needed especially for young people like apprenticeships. Industry in area closing causing large job gaps in all ages. • We need all the above jobs. SUPPORT NEEDED • Support needed to encourage people to look for work in areas that are outside their usual occupation. Training and upskilling is required. • For Rossington to become prosperous, there is a need for a good mix of local employers to provide better/more opportunities for our young people. OTHER COMMENTS • Not enough employment. • Rossington does not have the infrastructure or land to be a major employment parish. We are already a commuter village for the majority of workers and this will not change. The best Rossington can hope for is a better investment in central retail developments and small engineering companies to establish. Mass warehousing is only a short-term fix. • Rates of pay should be good enough to keep a family with top ups! • Don't import workers, round up the teenagers. • It shouldn't matter on what job it is. More jobs should be around the village. • There's not a lot of employment opportunities in Rossington but then again people are sucking the life out of benefits and don't want to work either. • Help Rossington residents with employment in their own village. • We need a variety to suit different people with different needs, skills and levels of education • There doesn't seem to be any new businesses setting up in the village, unless you count takeaway shops! • Greatly improved since opening of new road. Hopeful for link from Bankwood would solve other problems. • Seems there is so little on offer in the village. I have spoken to more than one person at ASDA and others who are from outside of Rossington. Curious as to why that is. • The current trend of 'hairdressers and pizza has to be stopped as we are witnessing the death of our village hub as a place for residents to shop. • Clearly the iPort development will afford significant number of new job opportunities – 5,500 jobs (according to the FARRRS information) “offering a range of employment opportunities”. This should provide a massive boost to employment prospects within Rossington. However, I believe that it is vitally important that measures are in place to ensure that Rossington residents/workers are given priority in job recruitment. This will ensure that local people are given the best opportunities to work locally, not least in the interest of the village residents and also the wider sustainability considerations. • We are self-employed in retail. We need signage to show where the shops are. So many people are unaware they even exist. There are some job opportunities there. • Any employment would be good for Rossington, it doesn’t matter what it is, it would save people travelling out of the village. • I’m out of work thinking of a new career and we all have a say. I don’t know anyone down in Rossington but lived here all my life. It has a name of a working village nut sure what they mean by that. There is a skill in anything you do as long as I am true to myself and don’t spend all my time in the put I’ fine. ENVIRONMENT 8% of residents in Rossington are extremely satisfied with their environment. 30% are moderately satisfied, 9% slightly satisfied with 18% being satisfied, totalling 57% of residents with varying levels of satisfaction with the environment in Rossington. 20% are moderately dissatisfied, 6% are dissatisfied with 9 % being very dissatisfied. AREAS OF CONCERN LITTER • Very scruffy and lots of litter. • Clean up the main village area streets and more bins.

St Peter’s Church Hall had been double-booked! But in the face of catastrophe, and at the eleventh hour, we were offered the use of the Baptist Church just across Chequer Road. It was warm, fully equipped and cosy, a bit like a little theatre. We had a good night. Much of the enjoyment was to hear Scott Cardwell’s most positive and up-beat take on Doncaster’s major “Transformational Projects”. Scott had been with Doncaster Council for 26 years, rising to the role of Assistant Director of Development, and it would be hard to find anyone more committed to the successful development of their “patch”. Having spoken of Doncaster’s excellent road connectivity because if its location in a motorway box, he told us how vital the White Rose Way improvements had been.
