Nunhead&PeckhamRye CommuityCouncil Meeting 25 Feb - WHAT HAPPENED?!


Recommended Posts

Did anyone go?

Any complaints to councillors made about - ohhhh let's say too many litter-picker-uppers - the parking issue - anything?

Since so many of you complain in here to people who can't do anything about it, it would be good if you'd gone to the councillors and parking nazis at the community council, people who CAN do something about it. But probably won't.

;)

I was there


I could tell you what happened but then I would have to 'silence' you afterwards


Needless to say, Cllr Mark Glover has moved that they discuss the parking issue directly with the executive of the council (a written report was preseneted claiming that Parking in Peckham is cost effective, but no idea on how much it raises, what the spend on Parkign maintenance is and the officer presenting claimed that there has not been a rise in prices since 2007, however with weekends and evenings no longer free then that obviously isn't true), the Peckham Area Action Plan was announced (consultation starts at the end of March) and No comments were made about the Dog Control order.


Oh and some community budget underfund was reallocated.


The Fixed Penalty Notice information explained why you can get one and how to appeal (not exciting and no time for questions)


New traffic calming and crossings were announced, although there is more consultation to be done (2 new zebras at the Peckham Rye end of Rye Lane to make it safer to get across the 'big island') and I then snuck out before the Wardens report (although it is in the pack) and the general question time


Now I need to follow up on my threat earlier and make sure you don't tell anyone else !!!

    • I think it is less easy/ more expensive to fence off the Common, as opposed to the nicer parts, which is why our nicer parts are hawked off to Gala. Why should we have access to nicer parts of our park in summer when we might most like to have access if it can be monetised. It's ironic really that this council is so Trumpy. 
    • Niko is my go to plumber - he's always friendly, reliable and very good at thinking outside the box for finding solutions. He did have his phone stolen recently and was on a brick phone, so if you tried Whatsapping him, he won't have received it yet but he should have a new smart phone by now. He always gets back to you promptly and is full of good advice and always up for a chat 🙂 Niko - 07818 607583 -  highly recommended!
    • Another recommendation for Niko. He arrived in 10 minutes of me calling him and successfully fixed my annoying dripping tap! He did mention a problem with his phone, think it was stolen, but he is now available on 07818 607583 
    • Well, what a huge surprise! So, while the council digs up local footpaths to plant trees and 'green' the roads, it simultaneously offers up our parkland to private hire for a further extended period of annual damage.  It is hard to see from the map, but it looks as though the footpath that was formerly available to walk along the length of the event site of old will now also be partially used up by the new footprint, it looks like it will be partly roped off? I love how the final council report advise that 'while locals will be unable to use this nicer part of the park for a month ( and actually much of summer as it all gets churned up and has to be reseeded) that this is fine as they can just use the Common instead.    It feels wrong that the nicer part of the park is given over for festival use. I do not buy that, as has been stated, the Common is just not big enough for the Gala event.
