1 A MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN Dear Resident, Your steering committee spent a long time designing the questionnaire and asking for your comments on the Chickerell Parish Plan. We had our first meeting in June 2005 and set up a committee of 12 interested residents. Then, after many meetings, we held four road shows and distributed the Plan to every home in order to give you a chance to have your say. Our detailed report tells us what you like about Chickerell Parish, what you don't like and where you want changes. For example, some residents don't want to merge into Weymouth whereas others think that would be to their benefit and a logical step. When we received the completed surveys, the information was entered onto a computer database and it took a long time to do this. Grateful thanks go to those volunteers outside the official steering group who gave their time and energy inputting the data. The back page of the survey was left blank for additional comments and each comment has been read and noted. In cases where contact details were given, I have replied to those residents. In the survey some people told us that they thought it didn't apply to them, but it was called a Chickerell Parish Plan and the parish does stretch from Mandeville Road, down to Lanehouse, Cobham Drive along Chickerell Road to Chickerell proper and out to Buckland Ripers. It is a huge area and, of course, residents who live in different areas have different concerns. However, our aim was to ask every resident their views and that we have done. Parish Plan Steering Group Now that we have the results of the survey, the hard work begins, as you can see from the Action Plan at the end of this leaflet. We are setting up working parties on aspects highlighted in the plan, such as footpaths, litter, traffic and child facilities. I can think of a couple of early successes we have had, for example, a group is being formed to walk the footpaths and hold walks at various times, open to everyone including dogs. Also Brian Bean heads a working party concerned with litter as this affects the quality of life of all of us in the Parish. Special thanks also to Vanessa Ricketts who has guided and inspired us throughout the process. We thank the organisations that have supported us with grants - Chickerell Town Council, West Dorset District Council and Dorset Strategic Partnership. I personally would like to thank every member of the Committee. It has been a pleasure to meet and work with such enthusiastic and committed people; they have turned up to every meeting, pounded the streets, attended open days, road shows, put hours in delivering leaflets etc all in a voluntary capacity. So I would like to present you with the results of your survey. I hope you find it interesting and feel you have contributed. I know you will support us, and join us for any further meetings we hold. Members of the public are always welcome to attend and we will publish dates in the Contact Magazine. So please take time to read this Plan and join us as we aim to make Chickerell Parish a better place to live in for you, your children and future generations. Best Wishes Jean Dunseith, Chairman
