Published Date: 22 April 2008
WORMEGAY Parish Council has received consultation documents from Norfolk County Council, which showed that the village had both possible future waste and mineral extraction sites.
County councillor Mrs Heather Bolt explained at the March parish council meeting that the waste site near Park Farm was for a proposed composting site and the mineral sites off Mill Drove would be for building sand and gravel.

She said that these were not proposed sites but search sites and stressed that the documents were for consultation purposes only.
The chairman and the clerk had attended a Community Action Group meeting where it was agreed to make Wormegay a priority village for additional police attention.

The council was unaware of any further crime incidents.
The registering of the village green is in the hands of the Land Registry.

Mrs Bunting, owner of Rose Cottage, had sent information via her solicitor regarding the rear access to the property.

A search done in 1997 showed that highways owned the piece of land in question. This differed from the map supplied to the parish council by highways.

The matter was to be passed on to Norfolk County Council's legal department to sort out and the clerk will keep Mrs Bunting informed.

Father James Nolan had objected to the council paying for the cutting of the churchyard hedge in lieu of rent for use of the Mission Room for council meetings.

The council will return to paying £90 a year rent for the use of the Mission Room for meetings.

Mr Harrod said that the hedge was a church boundary and was the responsibility of the churchwardens.

Reminders will be sent to the highways department regarding swings that still need removing in Bardolphs Way and dykes still blocked also in Bardolphs Way.

And 30mph markers not yet painted on the road. The following new problems were reported and would be passed to Highways:

Tarmac is breaking up on the approach to High Bridge.The dyke on the left hand side toward Park Farm has trees growing out of it.

Saxon Way from Castle Road to the church has a lot of potholes, some of which are a safety hazard.

Norfolk County Council is not currently prepared to extend the lease after 2017 as had been requested by the parish council in the light of erecting new play equipment.

The Awards for all Applications for new equipment had been sent in.
Sue Read will be the council's signatory on any grant applications.

Readable Software Ltd had kindly offered £1000 towards the new equipment.

A provisional date was agreed for Sunday, July 13, for a village sale with a charge of £8 to each household putting out a stall.

The event will be advertised in local papers.

Mr Ray Allen will cut the grass again in 2008 and the council are to purchase a new lawn mower for this work.

Christopher Fraser MP had written regarding the 106 agreement between West Norfolk borough council and A.G. Pearce over the residential development at the carrot factory.

Mr Piper of the borough council had reported before this meeting that the agreement was to be signed very soon. He said he had received no complaints from the public about noise or light pollution coming from the factory site. The annual parish meeting will be held on April 29 in the Mission Room.
