This is due to go before Cabinet members of Wiltshire Council on Tuesday 3rd July before going to full Council on Tuesday 10th July.
As you will know, the community have been working to create a neighbourhood plan for the village. This neighbourhood plan would, for the first time, mean that local residents and not officers at Wiltshire Council, would decide where any new houses go and, crucially, how many there would be.
However, officers at Wiltshire Council intend at its meeting on 3rd July, to persuade county councillors to ignore all our hard work and instead press ahead with imposing their Housing Site Allocations Plan (HSAP) on us. This will at a stroke destroy hundreds of hours of volunteer work and waste thousands of pounds of public money in terms of grant aid.
Please contact the following to raise your objection to the HSAP’s destruction of both YOUR neighbourhood plan and Greenfields.
The Parish Council has submitted its response to Wiltshire Council's Housing Site Allocations Plan.
From the 30 July 2018 the materials that people can recycle at home from the kerbside is changing.

Illness, disability, old age; there are many reasons why three in five of us will look after a loved one and become carers at some point in our lives. Becoming a carer can affect personal finances, social life, education and employment, and general health and well-being. Who cares? We do.
Carer Support Wiltshire is a local charity which can help you access the information and support you might need. We also offer one to one and group support, carer cafes, complementary therapy sessions and breaks from your caring role.
So whether you’re caring full time, for a few days a week, or juggling work with looking after someone, don’t struggle on your own. Contact us on 0800 181 4118 or visit our website at www.carersupportwiltshire.co.uk
