I attended meeting held at the Police Station in Wallington. Current crime figures discussed.The painting of the railings in Stanley Park has been suspended for the moment as a disagreement between parties has occurred. The park entrance has been closed whilst the children’s centre is being built, it was felt that this may have stopped many problems of youths in the park.
This meeting was held at the Diamond Riding School. New committee was elected for the coming year. The question of the park sign came up I emailed John Philips regarding this a draft should be available soon. Also a nearby barn is being used as a drinking area, I will inform the Safer Neighbourhood team to investigate.
I joined a group of 7 friends and walked around mitcham common, starting from the Ecology Centre next to the Mill House restaurant where we ended up. It was a wonderful day weather wise, see picture.
Cllr Kennedy and I attended the meeting, John is meeting up with the MP with the Chairman to try to push the case for the need for a new hall as a few member of the team pushing for this new hall have left the council. There is such a need to rebuild this hall as this is the only community area for the residents of the clockhouse estate. We are planning to redecorate the hall during half term as we need to keep it in good condition for the users at the moment, if anyone is free please contact me.
I organised and wine and canapes evening at the Oaks Centre restaurant from 6.30 to 8.30
35 people attended.
Cllr Crowly and I visited residents in Oaks Way, Whittlebury Close and Courtney Crescent, residents were keen to let us know their views on the green garden waste fiasco, amongst other concerns.
