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 !!!

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
