APPROVAL OF MINUTES OF MEETING HELD ON TUESDAY 2 MAY 2017 The minutes of the meeting held on Tuesday 2 May 2017 were approved on the motion of Mrs L Johnston and seconded by Mr E MacPherson. 1. MATTERS ARISING Kjurkhul Track The application to the SIC Community Development Fund for Projects has been accepted and the extra information they requested – proof of who owns the land the track is on and confirmation that the landowner is happy for the work to go ahead – has also been accepted. Letters and emails of support from community groups and residents are now being gathered to strengthen the application and if they are submitted in the next day or two then a decision can probably be made before the end of the week. The Paths for All application has reached the next stage but the full application needs to be in on Friday. It is hoped that the SIC grant will be successful meaning that the more complicated process of applying for the Paths for All money will not need to happen. Mossy Hill Windfarm 2017/104/SCO Proposed wind farm, Mossy Hill, Hill of Dale, Hill of Tagdale, Mainland Shetland An email from Lerwick Community Council was read and noted. It advised that the wind farm applicants have agreed to attend the LCC’s October meeting at which point they will be further down the line with the application and are able to answer questions. Members noted that Community Council meetings are open to the public so it would also be a good opportunity for people from within the Gulberwick area to be able to attend and find out more. The clerk can help advertise the event closer to October 2nd. An email from a Gulberwick resident was read and noted. He strongly objects to the development and says that the 12/14 giant windmills will be seen out his front window and the subsequent devaluation of his house and neighbouring houses is inacceptable. The clerk has already replied stating that the Community Council has already responded to the application and shared what the response was. She also advised that his email would be discussed at tonight’s meeting and will be taken into consideration when members are asked to comment at the next stage. Cllr Wishart was able to share that she had replied on behalf of the SIC councillors and had further explained the planning application process to him. DECISION: Clerk to advertise the Lerwick Community Council meeting closer to October. The email from the objector to be kept on file and revisited when the next stage of the planning application goes through. Wind Mills and Housing/Planning Advice Mr MacPherson requested guidance notes on the regulations surrounding wind turbines and housing/planning following a presentation by the Director of Development Services, Neil Grant, at the latest Association of Community Councils meeting. The guidance notes have been emailed to the clerk and she has passed them on to all members. 2. POLICE REPORT PC Duncan began by sharing information about a roadshow which is coming up to Shetland called Scambusters. It is aimed to raise awareness about nuisance/scam phone calls such as those from people claiming to be from banks, and should help vulnerable adults in particular. The problem of junk mail will also be covered. The South End roadshow will be on Friday: 1015-1045 - Cunningsburgh Under 5's 1100-1130 - South Mainland Kindergym 1200-1300 - South Mainland Leisure Centre 1300-1400 - Overtonlea Care Centre Dementia café 1400-1500 - Levenwick Health Centre. It is also Counter Terrorism Awareness Week so although luckily it is not as much of a concern up here, Shetland is still taking part. The Shetland Policing Report for May had already been supplied to Community Council but the officers gave extra detail on two of the twelve cases for the area. One person is to be charged with speeding through the 20mph limit outside Cunningsburgh School and one driver is likely to be charged with drink driving. Members asked whether the main road through Quarff is still a priority for officers out with the speed gun and PC Hannah assured everyone that it still was. Each area gets allocated a certain amount of time and Quarff is also regularly mentioned as a place to bear in mind for random checks with both the marked and unmarked police cars. ----- PC Hannah and PC Duncan left the meeting 7:50pm ----- 3. QUARFF MAIN ROAD An email from Dave Coupe, SIC Executive Manager for Roads, was read and noted. He is unable to provide a more accurate date when the red hatching and other road markings are to be painted due to the contract currently being out for tender. The request for new speed tests sited in different places so that cars slowing for the junctions do not have an effect was also rejected as Roads feel it would provide no additional data of any benefit. Members asked that the SIC councillors follow up the question about timing of the line painting as it is taking longer than originally promised. DECISION: Clerk to forward the email to SIC Councillors 4. FINANCIAL MONITORING REPORT The bank balance on June 13 2017 was £13,971.94. A £50 Voar Redd Up cheque to the Aald Rock Ministries Skill Centre has been cashed as well as the Cunningsburgh Hall’s £50 cheque from the money given by the Rotary Club to go towards their senior citizens Christmas party. The only other transaction not of a routine nature was the £3,000 for the Community Development Fund. The clerk has estimated the expenditure for 2017/8 at £6,484 meaning there will be in the region of £5,000 to go towards grants. Ten percent of the core grant is usually carried over each year. 5. GRANT APPLICATIONS There were two grant applications to consider this month. The Gulberwick and Quarff Rowing Club has been restarted and needs funds to repair the yoal. Members looked favourably on the application but postponed a decision until the next meeting so that the club can get all the paperwork in order. DECISION: Clerk to contact the club asking for the last set of accounts – if available, the latest bank statement, a written quote from the boat builder, and confirmation that they have a constitution and other relevant paperwork. The application will be considered at the August meeting if all of those conditions have been satisfactorily met. The second grant application was from Cunningsburgh Football Club looking for money to go towards renewing rabbit proof meshing on half of the external pitch fence. DECISION: Members decided to award £250 to the club. Clerk to post out a letter and cheque advising them of the decision. 6. ZetTRANS DRAFT MAIN ISSUES REPORT An email regarding the report, which had already been circulated to members for consideration, was read and noted. Members discussed how reports such as this come with reams of documents to read through which can be difficult when you have taken on the role of Community Councillor as a volunteer.

  • Annual Shetland Pony Sale – Lerwick 2011
    ANNUAL SHETLAND PONY SALE – LERWICK 2011 Shetland’s annual show and sale of Shetland Ponies was held on Thursday 6th and Friday 7th October 2011 at the Shetland Rural Centre, Lerwick. Entries for the sale were down on previous years with 133 ponies entered in this year’s catalogue. In particular there were fewer colt foals and fillies entered than usual meaning that the majority of ponies offered for sale were filly foals. Top price at the sale went to Mrs L J Burgess for her standard piebald filly foal, Robin’s Brae Pippa by HRE Fetlar, which realised 600 gns to A A Robertson, Walls, Shetland. HRE Fetlar achieved a gold award in the Pony Breeders of Shetland Association Shetland Pony Evaluation Scheme. The champion filly foal from the previous day’s show, Mrs M Inkster’s standard black filly, Laurenlea Louise by Birchwood Pippin, sold at 475 gns to Miss P J J Gear, Foula. Champion colt foal Niko of Kirkatown by Loanin Cleon, from Mr D A Laurenson, Haroldswick sold for 10 gns to Claire Smith, Punds, Sandwick. Regrettably, demand and prices in general were poor and some ponies passed through the ring unsold. Local sales accounted for a good proportion of trade as did the support of the regular buyers that make the annual trip from mainland UK to attend the sale each year. The show of foals on Thursday evening was judged by Mr Holder Firth, Eastaben, Orkney and his prizewinners and the prices that they realised, if sold, were as follows: Standard Black Filly Foals Gns 1st Laurenlea Louise Mrs M Inkster, Haroldswick, Unst 475 2nd Robin’s

  • TINGWALL: the SIGNIFICANCE of the NAME Gillian Fellows-Jensen
    TINGWALL: THE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE NAME Gillian Fellows-Jensen Introduction: thing and ting1 In present-day English the word thing means 'an entity of any kind', concrete or abstract, as in the pronouns anything, something or nothing. It can even be used as a term of endearment, at least to those not in a position to remonstrate, for example Alice in Wonderland, into whose arm the Duchess tucked her arm affectionately, saying 'You can't think how glad I am to see you again, you dear old thing!' In the modem Scandinavian languages, too, the cognate word ting has the same all-embracing kind of meaning and is found in pronouns such as Danish nogenting 'anything' and ingenting 'nothing'. When used of a person, however, it is generally in a derogatory sense, referring mainly to women who are old, ugly or loose-living or perhaps all three at once (ODS s.v. ting). As a place-name specific or generic, it is clear that thing must have a concrete significance. There are a number of field-names recorded in Middle English and early Modern English sources in which it is compounded with a personal name or a term denoting a human-being and seems to have the sense 'possession'. The earliest example I have noted is Aynoifesthyng 1356 in Ash in Surrey (Gover et al. 1933: 270) but the vast majority of occurrences date from the 15th to the l 7th centuries. In Old English and the other early Germanic languages, however, the word thing and its cognates, which were all of neuter gender, had the meaning 'assembly, meeting' and it is from this meaning that the modern, more general meaning has developed.

  • Local Landscape Areas- Draft
    Shetland Local Development Plan Consultation Draft 2014 Supplementary Guidance Landscape Areas Local DRAFT LOCAL DEVELOPMENT PLAN Supplementary Guidance - Local Landscape Areas- Draft The Shetland Local Development Plan (the Plan), together with any Supplementary Guidance, sets out the policies and criteria against which planning applications submitted in Shetland will be considered. This Supplementary Guidance sets out detailed policy advice to help you meet the requirements of the Plan. It is therefore recommended that it is read in conjunction with the policies in the Plan and any other Supplementary Guidance relevant to the type of development proposed. The purpose of this Supplementary Guidance (SG) is to provide additional information and maps of the proposed Local Landscape Areas. Introduction The purpose of the Local Landscape Areas is to ensure sympathetic siting and design of new development within the Local Landscape Areas, (LLA). It is not the intention of the Council to prevent development, but to encourage appropriate consideration of the landscape. The introduction of Local Landscape Areas will help to protect and enhance some of Shetlands unique environment and may provide direction for access and tourism. The information used to devise the Local Landscape Areas SG has been produced from the research conducted by Land Use Consultants. The full report including the research methodology can be seen in Shetland Islands Local Landscape Designation Review. The proposed Local Landscape Areas are; 1. Ronas Hill 2. Nibon and Mangaster 3. Vementry and West Burrafirth 4. Papa Stour and Sandness 5. Walls and Vaila 6. Culswick and Westerwick 7. Weisdale 8. Scat Ness and Sumburgh Head 9.
