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 !!!

    • A shout out for Mark, owner of Pure Plumbers. 07970 971510 They're well established in the Sevenoaks area, but have recently started doing more work in SE London.  Did some v quick and efficient bathroom and boiler fixes for me; have also seen some of the bathrooms he's built, which have a nice attention to detail.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
