In 2015 all the current plans were produced in a single document called ‘The Welshpool Town Plan’. A copy of the previous plans are posted on the Town Council web site at www.welshpooltowncouncil.gov.uk along with the combined plan. 1.2 The Town has seen much change since 2008 and even more in 2016 in the Town Centre and in particular the following are noted: i) The changes in the economic climate and shopping habits affected by those changes including internet shopping. ii) The settling down of the new traffic management system. iii) The change in parking habits due to the free parking now limited to 3 hours on the Tesco site and the higher charges imposed by the County Council on the public car parks. iv) The continued redevelopment of the Burgesses Land Trust site in Brookfield Road. v) The introduction of an improved rail service from May 2015. vi) The budget cuts by the principle authorities affecting service delivery, some of which affect the structure of the town. vii) The arrival of national names such as Aldi, B & M, Pets at Home and Greg’s the bakers. viii) The changes in tourism in that more families are now coming to Mid Wales with their pets in tow. ix) The lack of both industrial space (almost all full) and retail space (almost full) with no further obvious land available to expand. 3 | P a g e WELSHPOOL TOWN COUNCIL 1.3 Since the inception of all the plans an annual report has been produced to the Full Council giving an update on progress with regard to actions taken and policies being implemented. This procedure is to be continued during the life of this plan. 1.4 This new Plan replaces all previous plans and covers an area to include the whole area served by Welshpool Town Council as set out in appendix A. 1.5 The Town Council accepts that this document is not Statutory but will seek to implement its Policies in its decision and policy making with regards to Welshpool and its community supported by the Charter between the Principal and Town Councils. 1.6 The Town Plan 2017 to 2020 will inform principle authorities (including the Welsh Government and County Council) of the Welshpool Town Council plans and will in turn aid grant funding. 1.7 The plan period shall be from the date of adoption until its review in the Autumn of 2020. 1.8 Welshpool Town Council will continue to support the local communities around it when that is possible. 4 | P a g e WELSHPOOL TOWN COUNCIL 2 Local Development Plan 2.1 The Local Development adopted by Powys County Council forms the overall policy for the County including Welshpool. 2.2 The Town Council made a formal submission at consultation stage following a public consultation and survey hosted by the Town Council which influenced the Local Development Plan procedure and the final plan. (copy attached at the back of this document.) 2.3 The Town Plan takes into account the site allocations in the Local Development Plan and where appropriate reflects the policies affecting Welshpool contained therein where they are not in conflict with the views of the Town Council. 5 | P a g e WELSHPOOL TOWN COUNCIL 3 Welshpool and its economic base 3.1 The Town Plan proposals reflect the economic base of Welshpool of which the elements considered are: i) Element no 1 Local residents from Welshpool and the surrounding villages using the shopping centre for their shopping needs.

  • Pool Mission Area News
    Pool Mission Area News 8th Issue - December 2016 People news We are delighted to welcome Alexis Smith to the Mission Area. Alexis is serving as a Pioneer Minister working primarily in Llandyssil and Castle Caereinion but hopefully developing a model for rejuvenating small rural churches which can be developed for use elsewhere. This is a 3-year post funded by the Diocese. Sadly there were no applicants for the post of a ‘House for Duty’ priest based in the Border Bridges Group when it was advertised in the autumn. It will be re-advertised at some point in the New Year after we have become a Mission Area as that might allow us more flexibility in the way the job is configured. In the meantime the four full-time clergy in the MA will each provide pastoral care to one of the churches. Rev’d David Francis, is making steady progress recovering from the stroke he suffered earlier in the year whilst Rev’d Imogen Marsden, another of our retired clergy, is on the mend after knee surgery. Rev’d Bethan Scotford’s husband Ron, and Rev’d Hazel Stibbe’s husband Paul are both not at all well – please keep them in your prayers over Christmas. Mission Area Progress The date has been set for the Commissioning Service when we will formally become a MA. This will be on Sunday 12th March. The time & venue will be confirmed early in the New Year. If you would like to be involved in preparing the service and any other events for this day, please let me know.
