Planning Concerns.
The Parish Council is consulted on planning applications. If you have an opinion on an application, please let the clerk or councillors know as soon as possible within the 21-day consultation period.
Opening of the new Play Area in Culcheth.
The Parish Council are delighted that the redevelopment of the play area adjacent to Common Lane in Culcheth is complete. Families in the Parish will be able to use and enjoy this rejuvenated community resource for many years to come. This project has taken several years to complete and has involved many different people and organisations, all of whom deserve praise for the successful completion of this community resource.
Millennium Garden in Culcheth.
The Millennium Garden has recently had some of the bollards adjacent to the car park realigned after they were dislodged by parking vehicles. The Parish Council would like to make people aware that reversing too far in the car park (next to the CO OP) can cause collisions with the conical bollards on the edge of the Millennium Garden. This damages the community resource and incurs a cost to the whole community. In the near future, the block paving surface will be cleaned, resealed and sanded.
Parish Council Noticeboards.
The Parish Council noticeboards across Culcheth and Glazebury have been redeveloped to improve their functionality. This work has been completed by a local joiner who has done a great job to improve these noticeboards. A new glass fronted Noticeboard has also been placed on the Warrington Road in Glazebury, adjacent to the Scout Hut.
D Day 80th Anniversary.
On the 6th of June 1944 the largest amphibious invasion in history took place when 160,000 allied soldiers landed on the shores and fields surrounding the French coast of Normandy. To commemorate this event the Parish Council organised a moment of reflection and prayer at the War Memorial at Newchurch Parish Church at 9pm on Wednesday 5th June. Wreaths were laid by the Royal British Legion and by the Chair of the Parish Council on behalf of the people of Culcheth and Glazebury.
Next Meeting: Tuesday 10th September in Glazebury Methodist Church at 7:30pm.
