Dronfield NEWS Town Council Coronation tree planting O N Saturday, 6th May, Dronfield Town Councillors planted an oak tree in Jubilee Park, in celebration and commemoration of the coronation of Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla. The event was made even more special by featuring the spade which had been used to plant the tree in the Library Gardens in Dronfield in 1953 for the coronation of HM Dronfield in Bloom R ESIDENTS may have noticed that hanging baskets have started to appear on lamp-posts around the town with flower boxes also being added to the Civic Hall and at Cliffe Park. In addition to this, around 7,500 bedding plants, will be planted in flower beds around the town over the next few weeks by the Town Council’s outside services team. The bedding plants and hanging baskets are sourced locally and consist of Busy Lizzie, Begonia, Geranium, Petunia, French and American Marigolds, Zinnia and Gazania. The flower beds and hanging baskets add a vibrant mix of colour throughout the town during the summer months and always receive positive feedback from residents. Takeaway plan decision T HE Town Council has received the appeal decision by the Secretary of State against a refusal to grant planning permission by NE Derbyshire District for a change of use to hot food takeaway at 1 Chesterfield Road. The property, in Dronfield’s conservation area, was previously used for many years by St John Ambulance for headquarters and training. The original application was considered unacceptable for several reasons including being too close to residential properties which could be affected by odours and noise, directly affected by parking restrictions including the Queen Elizabeth II, 70 years previously. The tree planting was attended by several members of the public, as well as councillors. It is hoped the tree will continue to grow over the coming years and can be enjoyed by local residents for many years to come. Coun Lilian Deighton, who was Mayor at the time, planted the tree on behalf of the Town Council. pedestrian crossing and double yellow lines adversely affecting highway safety and in close proximity to a school. It was also considered contrary to many policies within the Dronfield Neighbourhood Plan and NE Derbyshire District Council’s Local Plan. Dronfield Town Council, in addition to many nearby residents, opposed the application. The appeal has been allowed and planning permission is granted. Caretaker role D RONFIELD Town Council is looking to recruit a new caretaker, who will help support the current team with events in the Civic Hall and at Cliffe Park. Having seen an increase in bookings again following the pandemic, the position of caretaker is a vital role within the council, ensuring venues are maintained and ready for use by hirers. The Civic Hall hosts a variety of different organisations and events, and the caretakers are the main point of contact during bookings - interacting with members of the public on a regular basis. Cliffe Park also hosts sporting bookings, as well as room hire within Gosforth Lodge. The Town Council is looking for an individual who can work flexibly at both locations throughout the week, when required, to ensure all bookings are covered.
