What’s been happening<br />

at <strong>Beaconsfield</strong> Town<br />

Council?<br />

Typically August is a quiet<br />

time in local councils, which<br />

gives us a chance to catch<br />

up on a few things in the<br />

office. We have two new<br />

members of staff, Tabish<br />

Wazir and Helen Walters<br />

whom we are pleased to<br />

welcome to the team.<br />

Even if there are not many<br />

meetings taking place, we<br />

are still busy and the Mayor<br />

has attended many events<br />

and recently had a very<br />

interesting meeting with<br />

Swish Fibre who are keen<br />

to get involved in some<br />

community projects in the<br />

area... something to be<br />

followed up with our new<br />

Events Committee!<br />

The council put forward<br />

a strong objection to<br />

the appealed Planning<br />

Application to build<br />

hundreds of new homes<br />

in the green belt adjacent<br />

to the town and are<br />

working closely with the<br />

<strong>Beaconsfield</strong> Society on<br />

this.<br />

Helen Walters<br />

Tabish Wazir<br />

The Town Council has<br />

agreed to contribute<br />

funding to sort out the<br />

yellow lines and traffic<br />

issues in Wattleton Road,<br />

but it may still take some<br />

while until this project<br />

reaches completion.<br />

Local residents will<br />

be consulted by<br />

Buckinghamshire Council.<br />

On page 22 we have the<br />

Neighbourhood Plan updates<br />

and exhibition dates thank<br />

you for all your help.<br />

Community Bus<br />

We would like to re-instate<br />

the <strong>Beaconsfield</strong> Community<br />

Bus and are looking for<br />

volunteer minibus drivers<br />

to support this service. This<br />

is an important service to<br />

help the elderly and those<br />

isolated so they can get out<br />

and mix in the community.<br />

However, this service is run<br />

by volunteer drivers, hence<br />

we are co-ordinating the<br />

pool of drivers to get this up<br />

and running again.<br />

Please see opposite advert<br />

for all the criteria. Get in<br />

touch if you are interested.<br />

And finally, we have moved<br />

the goalposts!<br />

But in a good way... new<br />

goalposts have been<br />

installed at Wooburn Green<br />

Lane Sports Field, where we<br />

continue to work on pitch<br />

improvement. We have also<br />

installed new five-a-side<br />

goalposts at Holtspur Park.<br />
