SLAUGHAM PARISH COUNCIL

WILL BE HELD AT THE CLUB HOUSE, FINCHES FIELD, PEASE POTTAGE

Come and meet representatives from the District Council, Parish Council and Football Club to look at the current proposals for the new facility and give us your views and suggestions. An updated draft plan of the proposed facility will be available for comment.

 

THIS WILL BE YOUR FACILITY, BE INVOLVED IN ITS CREATION

The meeting held on the 27th October, 2008 was fairly well attended and some proposals were put forward by local people - two items they felt should be considered were facilities for a playgroup for toddlers and a youth club. The meeting held on Monday 10th November, 2008, was again fairly well attended. A sample layout plan of a building that could fit within the constraints of the site was shown to those present. This gave more food for thought about layout, period of construction, what happens to existing facilities during any construction, need for equipment to furnish the building and costs involved. In addition, there would be the need to form a Committee to run the facility.

It is hoped that more people from the village will attend this next meeting which has been arranged to try to deal with just some of the issues raised on 10.11.08.

 

The works have been rescheduled and are now due to start on Monday 10th November, 2008 and last for 2 weeks. The A23 will be closed between Pease Pottage interchange and Bolney junction. Only one carriageway will be closed at night and fully signed diversion routes will be in place.

 

Properties falling within the closed areas will be able to access their properties at any of the junctions which will be manned and access maintained for the residents with the help of the contractor's staff.

 

Any queries, telephone 0845 6000414 or to the Highways Agency (area 4) c/o Interroute, InterRoute House, Bailey Drive, Gillingham Business PArk, Gillingham, Kent, ME8 0TT.
