  • 2019-07-08 APPROVED Minutes IPC Meeting
    Minutes of the Idmiston Parish Council meeting held on Monday 8th July 2019 at 7.30 pm in Idmiston Parish Memorial Hall Present Cllr Andy Oliver, Cllr Anne Appleyard, Cllr Valerie Cresswell, Cllr Ken Bradley, Cllr Kirsty Exton, Cllr Steven Cocking, Cllr Mark Jones, Cllr Mike Crook, Cllr Roy Gould Cllr Wayne Maher, Cllr James Humphries In attendance: Catherine Purves, Parish Clerk Also present: Two members of the public, Wiltshire Councillor Mike Hewitt, Ian Gillespie of the English Rural Housing Association Public Questions Councillor absences from Parish Council meetings – concerns were raised by a resident about absentee councillors, and comments were noted. Affordable Housing - Ian Gillespie gave a general and comprehensive presentation on his organisation’s ability to deliver affordable housing in rural community areas. Information booklets were left with the Clerk containing further details. Wilshire Councillor Mike Hewitt gave his report – Wiltshire Council ward boundary review - Councillor Hewitt advised the meeting of the latest Wiltshire Council ward boundary divisions proposed by the Local Government Boundary Commission and that a further consultation was underway, with the deadline for responses to be sent to the Boundary Commission by 29th July. It is proposed to include Gomeldon village in the new Old Sarum & Lower Bourne Valley ward and proposed to include the rest of Idmiston civil parish in the new Winterslow & Upper Bourne Valley ward. As the civil parish boundaries remain unaltered thus the parish would be split between two wards and two Area Boards as well. Following a short discussion which demonstrated the councillors’ strong objection to these proposals, it was agreed that residents should be alerted as soon as possible, and a petition should be circulated for signature for submission to both Wiltshire Council and the Boundary Commission.
