  • To Chairman & Councillors – Harkstead Parish Council from Mary Mclaren Babergh District Council Monthly Councillor Report
    To Chairman & Councillors – Harkstead Parish Council From Mary McLaren Babergh District Council Monthly Councillor Report – 10 February 2020 Babergh District Council Babergh Budget The first Draft of the Babergh District Council’s budget for 2020/2021 was agreed last month. The budget agreed an increase of £5 on council tax for Band D properties. Following consideration by the Babergh Cabinet and Overview & Scrutiny the draft budget will then go to the Full Council this month (26 February 2020) and if approved comes into effect on 1 April 2020. Citizens Advice Funding Funding for the Citizens Advices Services has been approved by Babergh & Mid Suffolk District Councils to the value of £420k. Some of this money will be allocated to Sudbury and District CA which has the largest centre in our district on a basis of £53,500 per annum. This will enable them to develop this much needed service with the assurance of long-term funding. Neighbourhood Plans Aldham & Elmsett have recently have had their NPs approved which should be an encouragement to our own parishes working hard to bring theirs to fruition. Councillors set to consider new parking plan A new Joint Parking Management Plan (JAPMP) setting out the blueprint policies to support sustainable parking across the Babergh District will be considered by councilors this month. Those councillors (including me) with rural parishes have raised the concern that not only urban wards have a difficulty with safe and appropriate parking. Country Lanes and narrow streets which experience high volumes of traffic versus the safety of all age pedestrians possibly present a greater problem than a small town where drivers might be more alert to the road hazards.

  • Joint Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council Landscape Guidance August 2015
    Joint Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council Landscape Guidance August 2015 Joint Babergh and Mid Suffolk District Council Landscape Guidance 2015 1 INTRODUCTION 1.1 The landscape of Babergh and Mid Suffolk (South and North Suffolk) is acknowledged as being attractive and an important part of why people choose to live and work here. However current pressures for development in the countryside, and the changing agricultural and recreational practices and pressures, are resulting in changes that in some instances have been damaging to the local character and distinctiveness of the landscape. 1.1.1 Some development is necessary within the countryside, in order to promote a sustainable prosperous and vibrant rural economy. However, such development would be counterproductive if it were to harm the quality of the countryside/landscape it is set within and therefore the quality of life benefits, in terms of health and wellbeing that come from a rural landscape in good condition.1 1.1.2 The Council takes the view that there is a need to safeguard the character of both districts countryside by ensuring new development integrates positively with the existing character. Therefore, a Landscape Guidance has been produced to outline the main elements of the existing character and to outline broad principles that all development in the countryside will be required to follow. 1.1.3 Well designed and appropriately located development in the countryside can capture the benefits of sustainable economic development whilst still retaining and enhancing valuable landscape characteristics, which are so important to Babergh and Mid Suffolk. 1.1.4 The protection and enhancement of both districts landscape is essential not only for the intrinsic aesthetic and historic value that supports tourism and the economy for the area but also to maintain the quality of life for the communities that live in the countryside.

  • 86 Minutes of the Committee Meeting of the Shotley Peninsula Cycling Campaign Held at Hill Cottage, Harkstead, at 10.30Am, on Mo
    Minutes of the Committee Meeting of the Shotley Peninsula Cycling Campaign Held at Hill Cottage, Harkstead, at 10.30am, on Monday 14th March 2016 Present: Mike Crouch, Cathy Crouch, Tony Gould, Jane Goyder, Mike Havard, Rosie Kirkup, Sally Williams 1. Apologies: Giles Goyder, Karla Powell. 2. Community Path a) Ipswich to Freston section: we are still waiting for a response from Oyster Properties regarding the proposed route which would pass along the edge of land in its ownership. MC suggested that he writes to Oyster properties again, asking if we can assume that they are happy with our proposals and won`t raise objections when the planning application is submitted. The Pauls want us to look again at the actual crossing point the route would take from the river side of the B1456 to go up the concrete access road to Suffolk Food Hall. b) Shotley section: no change to report, as the Ganges development is now on hold due to Woolverstone Parish Council applying for a judicial review. TG recently received an email from the Shotley Parish Clerk regarding a meeting that had been held with County Highways regarding the lack of footway in front of Little Oaks at the northern end of Shotley Gate. 3. Ganges Planning application: See above. 4. Report from sub-committee: On Wednesday 9th March, TG and MC attended a meeting of Woolverstone Parish Council to talk about the path, and to explain that the SPCC does not have a solution to getting through Woolverstone off-road, and would be grateful for their suggestions.
