Sleaford Town Meeting 28 August St Denys Church



I went to the meeting last night. It was well attended, with many good speeches! Here (below)  is what I have said on Facebook along with many, many other comments!

"I went to the Town Meeting last night about the position the Town Council should take re Compulsory Purchase. Some good speeches - some a bit off beam. I was slightly confused at the end as the Agree Next Steps and Closing Remarks weren't really covered. The position of the Coveneat, and legal/financial ramifications if it is breeched still need clarification. We are still going round the houses so to speak!"

The Sleaford Standard has also commented!


We wait to see what shenanigans come about in the weeks to come!

Town Meeting 28 August


Further to my post of 8 August there is to be a Town Meeting about the prospect of Compulsory Purchase order for the Rec Land on the Boston Road. This also relates to the comments made in 2011!

The agenda is at the Town Council Opening page! This may change. 

However there are one or two concerns but here are the facts:

  • 1            The Town Council voted twice (two years ago) not to sell the land!
  • 2.           It now has Fields in Trust Status.

Town Polls related to the land, and to the closure of the Station gates, have resulted in massive majorities against the schemes.

To my knowledge only the Councillors, of the Town Council, can reverse those decision based on their own judgement. The wording of the agenda on Wednesday does not mention that so I hope these facts will, once-again, be explained. Unless someone else sees a different legal scenario that I am not aware of!

Sleaford Town Meeting: Rec Road Issues


Update: There appears to be calls for a poll to settle the matter once and for all!  It won't! We have had Town Polls on the Recreation Ground and on the Station Gates and both have been ignored. This issue is whether or not to fight compulsory purchase. The cost will be high - with no clear indication of which side would win! However it may be considered as useful if it did, in fact, call the NK bluff!

However It is also complex now with the Fields in Trust link. All in all a bit of a mess!

The Sleaford Target was the first out of the blocks to name the place of the Town meeting on 28 August.

Rec Road: Public Meeting 28 August

 This taken a few years ago now!
 
 
There is to be a pulic meeting on 28th August about the controversial plans to build a road through the Boston Road Recreation Ground. There seems to be some confusion, amongst the people I talk to, about the Town Council position. They voted two years ago not to sell the land and recently appear to have placed the land under Fields in Trust for protection against development.

So what is the position?
