Whitehall Homes are putting together plans for housing on two fields adjacent to Heathfield Gardens. (This site was allocated for residential development in our Salehurst & Robertsbridge Neigbourhood Development Plan). They have asked the Parish Council to publicise an event they are holding to show local residents their proposed development ahead of submitting a formal planning application:
Residents are invited to view and discuss the proposals at Robertsbridge Youth Centre with representatives from Whitehall Homes on Thursday 17th October 4.30-7.30pm and Friday 18th October 3-6pm
The A21 Trunk Road (Scotney Castle to Baldslow) (50 miles per hour, 40 miles per hour, and 30 miles per hour speed limits) Order 2024'
Road Traffic Regulation Act 1984.
Copies of this draft order that National Highways proposes to make, together with plans illustrating the proposal are available for inspection by the public at the Parish office during the objection period for 21 days from 27th September to 18 October 2024. This order has been drafted to reconfigure and consolidate the speed limit legislation on the A21 from Scotney Castle to Baldslow to address safety issues and requests from the public, and to improve enforcement by reducing the number of individual orders.
The Parish Council is sorry to see Cllr Clive Cooke go - he resigned on 16th August for personal reasons. Clive was on the Planning Committee and we thank him for his contribution to this and the Council over the last five years.
We therefore now have a vacancy for one more Councillor: please click to see the Notice of Vacancy. Enquiries welcomed.
