Parishioners from Peckleton, Kirkby Mallory and Stapleton are welcome to attend. Source: Posted: Mon, 19 Jul 2010 12:00pm The Proposed Peckleton Wind Farm ![]() Earlier this year the Parish Council asked the Borough Council for a formal meeting with SLP Energy, the developers, at H&BBC, in order to discuss resident’s concerns. This took place on the 10th of March and was attended by Councillors from Peckleton, Desford and Newbold Verdon Parish Councils, the H&BBC Planning Department and the Leicestershire County Council Highways Department. SLP confirmed their intention to go ahead with installing two wind turbines in fields to the north of Peckleton, and less than one mile away from Peckleton, Kirkby Mallory, Newbold Verdon and Desford. The location was not one that had been recommended in the H&BBC local plan, and SLP maintained that they had approached the landowner following their own detailed survey of wind speed and proximity to the national grid. More » The initial assessment of the project was made during 2008 and the Scoping Report submitted to the H&BBC in January 2009. Further necessary surveys were then commenced and a wind monitoring mast erected in July 2009 to record wind velocities for a 24 month period. Subsequently, tests have been initiated to gather background noise levels, and sites chosen for visual assessments. It is expected that all surveys and studies will be completed, and the reports finalised in the autumn of this year. SLP intend to hold a Public Exhibition, either at Desford or Newbold Verdon, and then to apply for Planning Permission, before the end of the year. Other matters that were raised at the meeting included:
If you have any questions or comments about these, or other related matters, the Parish Council would be pleased to hear from you. « Less Source: Posted: Mon, 19 Jul 2010 11:55am Neighbourhood Watch Update ![]() We are pleased to report that the initial Neighbourhood Watch road signs have now been replaced with signs that can be easily read by passing motorists. The Council would like to congratulate Mrs Judith Montgomery, the NHW Development Officer, on receiving an Award from the Local Police Authority for her hard work and success in setting up local coordinators and organising the distribution of Smartwater Kits. Smartwater is a way of invisibly marking expensive items such that, if they are stolen and recovered by the Police the owner can be identified and criminals prosecuted. Basic information about Smartwater can be found on the back page. Advice and very special affordable prices are available from NHW. Presently, throughout the Peckleton Parish there are 19 NHW local coordinators who receive and disseminate police notices and information to residents in their immediate area, and who report incidents, or suspicious behaviour, back to the police. More » Recently there has been some administrative reorganisation at Bosworth and beat officers have now been assigned to specific villages. PC Phil Hale has a particular responsibility for our three villages. If you would like further information about joining and being part of our Neighbourhood Watch scheme, please contact Mrs Montgomery on 07846 626316 or by email using Judith.montgomery@cooptel.net. To report incidents, you can ring her, or to save time in emergencies, the Police Incident Centre on 0116 2222222, which will, where necessary, immediately direct local police officers to the scene. « Less Source: |
