PFNW Chair elected as Peterborough member on County Executive Group

Digging out the Police Office, a timely reminder that cold snaps are on the way and unlike last year the 'over the top' health and safety restrictions preventing residents from clearing snow have been dumped by the coalition government.  Double click on photograph to see it full size.

You'll be delighted to hear that Park Farm Neighbourhood Watch Chairman Julian Bray was elected by the Peterborough NW Association on Saturday November 6th and now has a clear mandate to act as as the official representative for the City of Peterborough on the Cambridgeshire NHW Executive Group.

Julian Bray comments: "Historically, the City of Peterborough, has had to my mind, a raw deal from the Cambridgeshire Executive Group, which is mandated to act as an overall steering group for hundreds of countywide NW schemes. I have yet to be convinced that it is.   I intend to work towards changing all that and get the Executive Group working on behalf of all local schemes treating them equally.  For example, for years they have been sitting on £11,000 worth of funds, rather than ploughing the money into worthwhile local projects. This has to change and the Executive Group need to work on creating closer ties with NW groups in Peterborough. From time to time I will be publishing 'mid term reports' on how the Executive Group is looking out for Peterborough or are we fighting an uphill battle? Only time will tell."
