FREELAND PARISH COUNCIL - POINTS FROM THE MEETING HELD ON 11th JUNE 2012 Pye Homes’ proposal for Affordable Housing in Freeland The Parish Council has recently been made aware of plans that Pye Homes are working on proposals to build a small development containing some affordable and some commercial housing behind Wroslyn Road with an access through the wood at the end of Church View/The Blowings. As part of the proposal, Pye Homes also indicated that they would give the Parish Council £200,000 for village infrastructure (such as building the CRF or other purposes) besides that required under section 106 of the Town and Country Planning Act 1990. The proposals, which are still at a very early and fluid stage, were presented on behalf of Pye Homes to the Council at the June meeting. Over 30 residents also attended the presentation, and questions were put to Pye Homes and their agents. Some of the main concerns raised at the meeting were about the access road through the woods and the increased traffic through Church View, as well as pressure on other services such as the school. A public exhibition on behalf of Pye Homes will be taking place in Freeland Hall on Saturday 7 th July between 8.30am and 12.30pm. All residents are invited to attend and inspect the proposals. There will also be an opportunity to ask any questions, complete questionnaires and feedback their views to WODC planners who will ultimately make the decision as to whether or not this development can go ahead. Jubilee Fun Day The Parish Council would like to pass on their sincere thanks and appreciation to Ria Lay and the Jubilee team who led the organisation of the Freeland Jubilee Fun Day. The day was a huge success, a fantastic event with activities and interests for a wide age range. There was a superb atmosphere and it was a shining example of a village really coming together as a team to organise what was a most enjoyable afternoon. Play Park The Council are pleased to advise that the current play park equipment has now been installed and, as I write this, the installation of the wet pour safety surface has begun. It is hoped that by the time this article is printed the play park will be open and available for use, with on-going work to improve the surrounding area being undertaken later in the year. OxOnline – Broadband survey OxOnline, a leading partnership supported by all six local authorities in Oxfordshire, is a driving force behind bringing better, faster broadband to Oxfordshire, with anticipated speeds of up to 24Mb by 2015. They are launching a new broadband community toolkit and want to obtain views from local residents and businesses by asking them to complete a new broadband survey online that will only take a few minutes to complete at http://www.oxfordshire.gov.uk/cms/content/have-your-say-broadband-plan The survey can also be accessed via the Freeland Village Website at www.freelandoxon.com Continued………….. 13
