LYMPSTONE PARISH COUNCIL
HERALD NOTES – SEPTEMBER 2002
Parish Council
Vacancies
The
Chairman Cllr Richard Eastley thanked the retiring councillors, Mrs Doak,
Mrs Eastley and Mr Parsons, for the valuable contributions they had made
to the Parish Council.
The vacancies were filled and the Parish Council is
pleased to welcome Mr Carter, Mr Dover and Mrs Humphrey. We hope they will enjoy their involvement in local affairs.
Housing in
Lympstone
The Parish Council had a very informative talk from Mrs Sarah Humphrey
who is the Development Manager for Sovereign Housing Association about
affordable housing in the village. This
is of great interest to the Parish Council because of the proposals being
made – for a considerable number of houses – in the land off Trafalgar
Road.
The
Parish Council will be discussing this matter in depth during the autumn
and now is the time to make your views known to the Councillors or in
writing me.
A Lympstone
Web Site
There seems to be growing interest in developing a
village Web Site. This could
contain details of the village and would be an ideal place to advertise
forthcoming village events and from which links to other village sites
like the Shops Supporters Club, School, Church etc.
If anybody would like to be involved in the development of this
exciting project please get in touch.
Speeding
The Parish Council discussed speeding vehicles
through the village. Previous
discussions with the County Highway Authority about this meets the
response that the speed merchants are local people who know the roads
well. If you are an offender
please give the rest of us some thought and slow down.
Exmouth
Community College
The new principal of Exmouth Community College, Mr
Anthony Alexander, has offered to come and speak to the Parish Council
about the place of the college in the community.
The College of course offers a large programme of adult education
as well as being responsible for educating our youngsters.
The meeting will be held on Monday 7 October in the
Village Hall just prior to the Parish Council meeting and will be open to
the public.
Sally
Harradine, Clerk to the Council
