Chair’s report easter 2013as we started 2013 it came into my mind just how manychallenges we are facing this year and just how hard it will beto combat some and achieve others. our strengths are that wepull together and work as a Village and we are going to bedoing that soon with the proposed development of our GreenBelt!!! is land, at the end of penn’s Yard, is so special and ifwe lose it, pembury will have lost its green boundary andcould end up a suburb of tunbridge Wells. it could lose itsidentity. is this what we want? i don’t think so, we arepembury and proud of it!e traffic lights on the pembury road are still a major stumbling block for drivers andthat, with the back traffic from Knights park is causing pembury severe problems. Mysympathies are for our residents and particularly the residents of Cornford Lane as theirquiet rural lane has become a nightmare of a rat run for cars. e lane is being erodedand ancient hedges are being decimated. hopefully the public consultation for the a21will start on time in May and that work can start this year.e possible school expansion? is is causing parents such a worry - that local childrenwill not get a place due to a possible overflow from tunbridge Wells; other parents arevery positive about an expansion. e consultation period is now finished, so we awaitthe next stage of this journey together. i think you will agree on all these issues we needto make sure we end up with what is right for pembury for the future.on a brighter note the spring flowers are pushing through and i think that just givesyou hope that with a new season, better things are on the way.Can i encourage all the gardeners of the Village to enter the pride in pemburycompetition this year? Last year’s gardens were fantastic, so please enter even if you doall the work and your partner takes all the credit; it’s the taking part that counts!i reiterate my statement - we are a community, let’s work positively for ourwonderful Village.Cllr Mrs June CrowhurstCopy for Next Issue - Please note change of email addressAny news items or articles for possible inclusion in the next issue of this magazine must be forwarded to theParish Office, c/o Parish Council Offices, Lower Green Recreation Ground, Lower Green Road, Pembury, TN2 4DZ1st May 2013If you use a computer to type your article, it would be extremely helpful if you could send it(and photos attached separately) in by email to deputy@pemburypc.kentparishes.gov.uk3
