FixMyStreet is an online service that allows you to report problems (e.g. potholes, overgrown pavements) immediately and ensure that they reach the appropriate teams swiftly.

Shropshire Council has just announced some updates to the service, as follows:

We are excited to update you on the latest round of FixMyStreet improvements. Currently, we are working with the Street Scene service (sweeping, grass cutting, bin emptying for example) and have assessed a range of solutions to better inform the public. We have taken feedback on board, and we are now ready for a launch of changes into the live FixMyStreet system.

This update will cover improvements including:

• A new system wide message aimed at providing better information. By providing the information above it will help the Council to:

• Redirect the enquiry to the appropriate body to resolve the enquiry where the Council is unable to solve the problem or where it falls outside of the Council’s responsibilities.

• Enable a faster and targeted response to enquiries.

• To provide a more detailed response than is currently available with automated replies. Our updates include the following:

• 7 new service tailored automatic responses, so customers are better informed abreplies.

• Links to webpages for policies or more information as available and relevant to the enquiry.

UPDATE: 

There will be a meeting of the Parish Council on Monday 30th September at 7.30pm in the meeting room at Black Birches (W3W:///requires.lifeboats.clutches). This is to consider the Parish Council's response to the draft proposal for development of land south of Wedgefields Close.

You can find the agenda on the Meetings page of this website. 

 

Members of the Parish Council met online with representatives of Cameron Homes on Thursday 12th September, to receive information about their draft proposal for site HDL006 (land south of Wedgefields Close). To watch the recording of this meeting, use the following link: https://we.tl/t-5zOl5jgb8v (If you have any problems using this link, please contact the Clerk.)

Cameron Homes tell us that information about the draft proposal and how to respond online will be coming through your letter box shortly. The online link is here: https://www.hadnallsouth.co.uk/

We have also asked that paper copies be made available and will advertise where and when these are available for postal responses. These are now available in the village shop. There will be a consultation period of around 3 weeks for people to respond, followed by a meeting with the Parish Council and public.

The Parish Council will be holding a public meeting as soon as possible to discuss the draft plans and what can be requested to benefit the community. This will be helpful to coordinate our responses to the survey and clarify the wishes of the community. We hope that as many as possible will attend. 

Full information about any meetings will be published as soon as dates are confirmed.
