Your City - Your Council

Peterborough City Council Cabinet Meeting Monday 13th June 201, Bourges/Vierson Room Town Hall

This meeting dealt with the new Local Authority Mortgage Scheme and the use of Consultants. Both of these have been covered by local press.




Cardea, have your say on new developments!

 The item of interest  to Park Farm and Stanground residents  is the ‘Village Design Supplementary Planning Document’. This is part of a handing down of power to communities. In rural areas the control would pass to Parish Councils (i.e. Hampton).

The impact of new developments such as Gt.Haddon on Yaxley was briefly discussed, obviously this will also water down to us.

The document states little interest has been shown by ‘city’ residents – obviously someone hasn’t been to Stanground!

Protect our area

Although the document appears to have been directed at rural communities there is no reason why we can’t form our own ‘village’ community.

In our case we need to form a ‘core’ of 21 committee members. The Council is duty bound to assist with this, the committee will need to have some officials attached.

Now the interesting part, what does it cover? Well, it’s an opportunity to have a say in the future of our area.


My thanks to everyone at the Town Hall who helped with our visit.
