COMMUNITY MEETING 5/2/19

Less than a week to go till the next Community/business meeting.
Hopefully you have told your friends/colleagues /neighbours. Put it on your website/facebook page. Businesses need to attend. What happens in Waterlooville DOES AFFECT YOU!
Easy to think that you don't need to go because someone else will, or it will make no difference. The answer is someone else might NOT turn up. If nobody turns up then it will make no difference as the council will believe that nobody is interested. Just by showing up in numbers will get the message to the council that PEOPLE OF WATERLOOVILLE DO CARE ABOUT THEIR TOWN.
All local ward and county councillors have been invited. Cllr Tim Pike will be there to to talk about the local plan that is about to go out for consultation, and will involve Waterlooville. Have you seen it??
Local plan

He will also have some feedback on issues highlighted at the last meeting as well as updates on progress on developments in town centre.
The following have been requested to go on the agenda:
Development of old post office??
Eastleigh has kerbside food waste collection as well as glass and batteries. Could Havant do the same?
Have you any other items you would like discussed?

SUMMER FETE SUCCESS

The sun shone and the families came to see the 80 stalls, arena events, animals, dog show, horse and carriage, etc etc.  What a fabulous day.  Being a volunteer with Waterlooville Events team it was an exhausting day but also had a sense of satisfaction that we had achieved it for another year.  The day started at 7am to put up our gazebo, then getting the toilets in place and then the stalls on the field.  It calmed until we had to get them off at the end of the day.  So home at 5pm for relaxation. 18 volunteers ran the day.  Many before hand - booking stalls;  organising arena;  doing the relevant paperwork with various authorities; finding the funding; etc etc. What we need are more volunteers.  Why don't you help.  Many hands make light work!!  Be an elf in the xmas grotto, or even be a santa!!  Why not help with the Xmas event??   or help us with the brand new event in May  Waterlooville Carnival in the...

FESTIVE LIGHTS, NONE FOR WATERLOOVILLE!

Some of you may have read previous blogs as I have tried to work my way through the bureaucracy of licensing and installation for festive lights in the town centre.  In fairness the paperwork has been easier (was started in JUNE!) mainly because a lovely lady called Katie in Havant Borough Council has been helping me. So why am I saying there will be no festive lights in Waterlooville this year?  Scottish and Southern Electrics SSE!!   We have to get permission to hang the motifs from their lighting columns (also know as lamp posts!)  To do that we have to get an installer approved by them!! Our installer from last year retired and we had to find a new one.  To hang, plug in and flick a switch on  8 motifs, put the lights in the Xmas tree, plug in and flick a switch, and also hang some battery powered lights in the trees (and remove)   Our first quote COST £3500  Which we felt was excessive. We did find a local installer, Cl...
