CHINNOR PARISH COUNCIL ANNUAL ASSEMBLY.

DATE: Monday April 27^th

PLACE: The Village Centre, High Street

TIME: 7.30 pm

All parishioners whose name appears on the electoral role are invited to the Annual assembly where the Parish Council will report on the Council’s activities during the previous 12 months.

We are changing the format slightly this year.

All persons attending will be given reports written by the Chairmen of the main three Council committees, Planning, Environment, and Finance and General Purposes, plus reports from our County Councillor, David Wilmshurst, and District Councillor Geoff Andrews.

Refreshments will be served on arrival and attendees will have 30 minutes to study the reports and consider any questions they may have.

The formal part of the Assembly will start at 8.00 pm with an address by the Chairman, followed by the approval of the minutes from the 2008 Assembly and the adoption of this year’s reports.

There will be a short address from each of the following organisations; Thames Valley Police, Chinnor Youth Football Club, and Chinnor Community Responders.

The Clerk will then read out any correspondence relevant to the Assembly.

The meeting will then be open for questions from the public.

Chinnor Cement Works Development

The Parish Council has now received a copy of the latest proposals from Bryant Homes (part of the Taylor Wimpey Group) for the development of the Cement Works.

Because of the very short time permitted by South Oxfordshire District Council for residents’ comments to be submitted to them, the Parish Council will be setting out a display of the proposals prior to the Annual Assembly, at the Village Centre, on Monday 27^th April.

The display will be open to the public from 5pm until 7.15 pm.

In the meantime, the Council will be studying the proposals and formulating its response.

The plans are available at the Parish Office, but because of the sheer volume of documents, we would ask anyone who wishes to study them to telephone the office on 353267 and make an appointment.

The plans can also be viewed on line at: planning.east@southoxon.gov.uk

Planning reference : P09/E0145/O

We also intend to have the proposals on display at the Reading Room in the High Street on Saturday May 16^th from 10am until 1.00pm. (Comments will be accepted at SODC immediately following this date, but it is advisable, if possible to submit by 07.05.09 as stated below)

We would like to point out that anyone wishing to comment on the development must make their point in writing or by e-mail to South Oxfordshire District Council no later than Thursday 7^th May.

You must submit your comments on this application, even if you commented on previous Cement works applications. Previous comments will not be considered.

The address is : SODC, Benson Lane, Crowmarsh Gifford, Wallingford, OX10 8AX

The e-mail address is: planning.east@southoxon.co.uk
