Cllr Livingstone’s statement is attached at Annex A. Cllr VMcP reminded members that at the 28 January Parishes Assembly it was suggested that there could be a Special Cabinet meeting, on 17th March 2010 and this would have allowed all Ward Members and Parish Councils to have their say. However at the meeting the Assembly voted to delay the Cabinet meeting until June, which was later agreed by the Leader of the Council and the new date for the Special Cabinet is now confirmed as the 29th June 2010. Cllr VMcP confirmed the draft revised Milton Keynes and Parish and Town Council Charter 2010 will be circulated to all Ward Members and Parish Councils for comment for a consultation period of 12 weeks.

SB advised that copies of her report highlighting the last MKPC meeting and a new brochure relating to MK were available on the Documents table. She advised a good response to Planning Aid Seminars and confirmed a 3 hour programme has been decided. Following a vote, councillors agreed that a Thursday evening at 6pm (with refreshments) would be preferable. SB confirmed she will contact councillors with dates in due course and those interested should contact her. Planning Aid brochures were available on the documents table. Questions: Cllr AD asked if SB was aware that Lesley Blue from (BALC) is planning to organise Planning Workshops in MK following a request from Newport Pagnell TC. SB confirmed LB passed these details on and agreed this was an excellent opportunity for partners to work together to ensure all parish and town councils are included in all training opportunities. Cllr Tom Fraser raised “The Health of Milton Keynes” issue; he has reservations this isn’t 2 being addressed in the core planning documents as requested by Central Government. Cllr.VMcP asked SB to ensure that all issues are included in the Planning Aid Seminars. Action – SB Cllr VMcP suggested an item for the next Parishes Assembly “The Health of Milton Keynes” lead by a senior health representative e.g. Nicholas Hicks (Director of Public Health). Action – CG. Cllr DR highlighted Senior Voice MK have raised with the NHS involvement at the early stages of planning and developing facilities e.g. Willen ExtraCare Village has no bus accessibility.

Cllr Esther Long asked if there are structures in place to consult with younger people about planning issues. Cllr VMcP suggested she contact the MK Youth Cabinet. Action – Cllr EL Gerri Smith (MKP) advised that the presenters at the Planning Aid seminars will include an MK based professional planner who is familiar with the unique issues of MK; the seminar will include feedback from Parishes to local authorities. GS continued that the Planning Aid seminars will assist attendees in communicating comments about development proposals to Local Authorities, e.g.MKC or MKP. These may include Health, community safety, designing out crime; all issues can be addressed through the planning application process. ITEM 4 SAFERMK Cllr VMcP introduced the Community Safety Mapping “Zubed” project with Robert Dodds (Project Manager SaferMK) and Benni Cordy (Communications Manager SaferMK). Cllrs Phil Ayles and DL (Responsible Authorities Group (RAG) reps) advised that BC produces the SaferMK newsletter with their support. Cllr PA advised the new mapping system replaces the former Thames Valley Police system and that both he and Cllr DL had an input to this. BC thanked Councillors PA and DL before introducing the Safer MK website which is a signposting facility, providing links to other sites and partners’ sites such as Thames Valley Police, Buckinghamshire Fire & Rescue Service and MKC. The website is owned by Safer MK and is updated daily. RD asked members if they had used the site and their comments. Councillors responded that it was very slow; RD felt this was due to the volume of site users to a mapping system that uses a lot of resources; however during testing periods, the site was fine. RD explained how the data is put into perspective, how it is received from all partners but to its nature the data is always one month behind. Questions: Cllr DS agreed that the site is still too slow for most people viewing websites. RD and BC responded that it is normally faster and that statistics show up instantly. Cllr. Cllr VMcP commented that MK (the Bradwell exchange) is one of three pilot areas in the UK for faster broadband and this should improve the speed. Cllr.TF stated that in the old system a sector sometimes covered three parishes which this made it difficult to highlight which areas were causing a problem; he then asked how will SaferMK reassure residents who are living in the highlighted estates so that they will not move elsewhere and the standard of area worsens ? Richard Solly (SaferMK Manager) responded that information is power and residents may find that their estate is relatively high in crime as compared to other estates in MK; but knowing that it will hopefully enhance community engagement to take action. Cllr.EL advised she is Chair of a Neighbourhood Action Group (NAG), a resident and a cllr and is very thankful for the SaferMK Website as it helps all to know about the area they live in. She asked is there a facility on the website for people to join a NAG? and is there a victim support link or victim support contact number? Response – RD and BC confirmed that there is detailed information on the SaferMK site about how to join a NAG and victim support.

Public Open Forum Richard Freeman (Simpson and Ashland) announced that Simpson and Ashland Parish Council had been offered the use of Speed Indicator Devices (SID’s) through Adrian Carden (Road Safety Team Leader, MK Council) and were seeking the involvement of neighbouring parish councils. Training was on offer. A total of 4 volunteers were needed. More information would be forthcoming. To be added to the next agenda. Les Burgess (Chair of the Patch Allotment Association) relayed the Association’s thanks for the financial contributions from the Parish Council towards the Bee Project and the Open Day. The latter had been a great success, with a strong turnout. £126 was raised. Charlotte Hall (WotGS) asked for any update on the Conservation area status. No change at present. Phil Wareham (WotGN) advertised a new event proposed by the retail businesses at Oakgrove who planned to run a Fun Day on the last weekend in August and were seeking community involvement. Caroline Cooke (WotGS) complained of fires being lit by plot-holders in the allotments without due regard for neighbours. Fires had been lit when weather conditions were too still to ventilate the smoke or too late in the day and left to smoulder late into the evening – this caused a real nuisance making her shut all windows during hot nights.

  • Alternative New Warding Arrangement for Milton Keynes Council Dear Sir
    Fuller, Heather From: Fuller, Heather Sent: 18 March 2013 09:15 To: Hinds, Alex Subject: FW: Milton Keynes Review Attachments: MK Ward Proposals - Iain Stewart_JPG From: STEWART, Iain Sent: 17 March 2013 17:33 To: Reviews@ Subject: Milton Keynes Review Alternative New Warding Arrangement for Milton Keynes Council Dear Sir, As the Member of Parliament for Milton Keynes South, I would like to make a representation to the consultation on the proposed new wards for Milton Keynes Council. My submission relates to the proposals for the area of Milton Keynes Council covered by my Milton Keynes South Parliamentary constituency; namely the existing 11 wards of Stony Stratford, Loughton Park, Emerson Valley, Furzton, Denbigh, Whaddon, Bletchley & Fenny Stratford, Eaton Manor, Woughton, Walton Park and Danesborough. I support the Commission’s proposed Tattenhoe and Woughton & Fishermead wards. However, I have proposed an alternative warding for the other areas of my seat. In addition, I have made suggestions for the remaining areas of Milton Keynes. This is simply to show that my proposals for the area covered by my constituency do not result in difficulties in composing wards in the rest of Milton Keynes. While I would argue that my proposals do reflect local communities and ties, other proposals may be preferable. For the MK South areas, I have been able to come up with an arrangement that preserves the “Western Flank” area (with the boundaries of the A5, A421 and the council boundary) and the Bletchley area (covered by Bletchley & Fenny Stratford Town Council and West Bletchley Parish) without a cross‐community ward that has attracted some criticism.

This presents many opportunities for the Council, some of which you may be aware of, like the building of a Pavilion and enhancing the play facilities. Walton Community Council’s Events Working Party has also been busy throughout the summer organising events for the community, including the Family Fit and Fun day and our Summer Fayre. Both events were well attended, especially the recent Summer Fayre, and although it had to be held indoors due to the windy weather, this did not seem to dampen the community spirit.
