Grit Bins
Posted in Parish Council, Transport, Weather on Friday March 2, 2018| Leave a Comment »
Refilling of most grit bins is the responsibility of the Highways Authority, Derbyshire County Council. Anyone seeing a bin that needs refilling can call them using the phone number on the bin or make a request via their website. The bin can be identified by a number on it or from a map on the website.
It does no harm if more than one person reports the same bin.
It is possible that there will be delays in refilling bins during the current weather.I have checked the following.
Creamery Lane triangle and the School have plenty.
Pump Hill and Kiln Lane were empty and I have left some of the bags held by the Parish Council for pavement clearance to provide some cover until they are refilled.
The bin at the top of Creamery Lane near Barn cottage is filled by the Parish Council and has two unopened bags of grit by it.
The bin on Smithy Close is the responsibility of Waterloo Housing.
The bin at the telephone exchange is the responsibility of BT and is for their own use.
Please note that the grit in yellow bins is for use on public roads only.
Regards
Andrew Martin

Road Grit
Posted in Parish Council, Roads on Tuesday December 12, 2017| Leave a Comment »
We have been asked to remind people that grit in the roadside bins is for use on public roads and pavements. Concerns have been expressed to the Parish Council that some people are using the grit for their own driveways.
Some of the grit bins belong to DCC and some to Parwich Parish Council. There is information on the bins on who to contact if they are empty.

Free Logs!
Posted in Parish Council, Uncategorized on Saturday November 11, 2017| Leave a Comment »
The Parish Council had several dead trees in the village cut down on Friday. Pieces small enough to handle but which could be cut down for firewood have been left at each site. They are at the School Orchard by Pump Hill, the Playground and the east end of the Millennium Green.
If they are still there, residents are welcome to take some away for their own use. Note that this is at your own risk and take care when moving them. Logs should not be cut up at the site. Please respect the School Orchard if removing logs from Pump Hill.

Village Maintenance Day
Posted in Parish Council on Thursday September 14, 2017| Leave a Comment »
We have been asked by the Parish Council to publicise the next Village Maintenance Day which will be held on Sunday the 8th of October.
The particular tasks to be tackled will be discussed and planned at the next Parish Council Meeting on the 20th of September.
The Parish Council hopes that by giving advance notice, more people will be able to take part. Even if you can only give an hour or two you will be very welcome. The more people we have the more we can get done on the day.
The Allotment Poll
Posted in Gardens, Parish Council on Tuesday September 5, 2017| Leave a Comment »
A few weeks ago I ran a poll on here to coincide with National Allotments Week
The poll attracted 30 responses (thank you all!) with 13 saying they would like to have an allotment in the village.
There were 2 comments that added some good information and ideas for thoses interested.
The Parish Council Clerk provided some valuable information for those interested in an allotment –
“If residents would like to rent an allotment they should write to the Parish Council. If six residents write to a Parish Council requesting provision of allotments the Council is required to formally assess the level of demand.”
Then this great suggestion came from Saskia T –
“I wondered whether a third option of a ‘Community Allotment’ should also be considered: i.e. a shared allotment that could be used by a group of residents who don’t have a veg plot and would share the produce. Other growers in the village could share excess seedlings and excess produce (especially runners beans and marrows…). And if there is enough space: a few fruit trees? Perhaps pie (or should that be ‘pumpkin’) in the sky? The suggestion originates from a visit to an amazing community allotment project in a small hamlet in Australia”
So in conclusion, anyone interested in allotments should write to the Parish Council.

Grant Funding for Playground Improvements
Posted in Parish Council on Monday August 28, 2017| Leave a Comment »
We have been asked by the Parish Council to publish the following –
Derbyshire Environmental Trust administer the Tarmac Landfill Communities Fund. This fund allows grants to be made for certain community projects that are near to landfill sites. It is funded by tax rebates available to land fill operators. Average grants are in the region of £20,000 though there is no specific limit.
The Parish Council has established that Parwich is located close enough to such a site to be able to apply for a grant. It has also been confirmed that playground improvements would be a suitable project.
At this stage the Parish Council is interested in hearing from residents about the sort of improvements they would like to see. Ideas from children would be particularly appreciated.
It is not possible to confirm if any particular suggestion would be implemented as costs and alternatives may have to be considered. The whole process may take many months due to the timetable for preparing and reviewing applications.
Depending on the proposals made permission from the Paek Parks Planning Authority may be required.
Please e-mail or write to the Parish Council, or contact the Clerk or any of the Councillors with your suggestions.
Mobile Phone mast planning application. Brook Close Farm
Posted in Local government, Parish Council, Planning, Utilities on Monday August 28, 2017| Leave a Comment »
We have been asked by the Parish Council to publish the following –
The Peak District National Park Planning committee has rejected this Planning Application.
The reason given was that
“The proposed installation by reasons of its height and exposed position would appear as an intrusive feature in this open countryside location, detrimental to the visual amenities of the area.”
No further public consultation had taken place as the application was regarded as a “permitted development”.

Public Toilets
Posted in Parish Council on Thursday June 8, 2017| Leave a Comment »
We have received this from Andrew, the Parish Council Clerk.
The Parish Council recently asked for views about the use of the public toilets at Parson’s Croft. Based on the responses and subsequent discussion the following was minuted:
No interest had been shown in using public funds to keep them open on a regular basis.
Resolved: That the toilets can generally be made available for use by village groups as required on the basis that they will leave them as they would wish to find them.
Resolved: That regular users shall have their own keys for this purpose. Currently the School and Bowls Club who have keys and the Football Club who need keys cut.
Resolved: That for occasional use, e.g. caravan meetings, the toilets will be opened by one of the Parish Council key holders.
So if you would like the toilets to be opened please contact the Parish Clerk.
