  • Minutes of the Meeting of Great Haseley Parish Council Held on Monday 13 February 2017 at 7.30 Pm in the Village Hall
    MINUTES OF THE MEETING OF GREAT HASELEY PARISH COUNCIL HELD ON MONDAY 13 FEBRUARY 2017 AT 7.30 PM IN THE VILLAGE HALL Present : D Simcox (Chairman); J Andrews; H Harvey; D Mann; K Sentance; A Sheppard; E Spencer J Simcox, Clerk and two members of the public. 16/159 Public Discussion There was no public discussion at the meeting. 16/160 There were no apologies for absence. 16/161 There were no declarations of interest in items on the agenda. 16/162 The minutes of the meeting held on 9 January 2017 were confirmed and signed. 16/163 Matters arising The clerk had received a letter from Highways England regarding the problem of accidents on the northbound off slip road of the M40 and was informed that there had been no fatalities and therefore no alterations would be made. The chairman said that some of the problem was on the A329 which, of course was not counted in to any surveys of accidents on the motorway. It was also not helped that the street lights on the motorway bridge have not been working for several years despite reporting it on Fixmystreet and reporting it to S Harrod. The Chairman had now produced a plan of where posts should be put on Backway but due to personal circumstances, the clerk had been unable to ask for quotations. This will be done during this month. A plaque had been engraved for the seat on the Playing Fields and once this had been varnished, it would be put in place. 16/164 Planning P17/SO135/FUL Old School House, Backway, Great Haseley The erection of a detached infill dwelling at Old School House, Backway, Great Haseley Whilst the Parish Council felt that the proposed dwelling was not a very interesting building, it had no strong views but felt that the new property should be subservient to the main Listed Building to maintain its integrity.
