A local resident reported that last night there were a number of break ins and attempted break ins to sheds in Smithy Lane. Shed doors have been significantly damaged. We will add further information when the police information comes through.
This has now been reported to the Environment Agency. If anyone has any further information please contact the EA on 0800 80 70 60
There is a strong smell of oil at Nethergreen, I noticed it last night around 9 pm and again this morning. I have noticed that the oil is now in the pond. Has anyone got a leak further upstream?

Notes of Meeting to Discuss the Future of Parish Council Land off Pump Hill 23 February 2015 at Parwich Memorial Hall
Over 50 residents were in attendance.
Peter Trewhitt opened the meeting on behalf of the blog team and introduced Councillor Simon Spencer. Cllr Spencer outlined the purpose of his role and emphasised that he was there as an independent chair.
David Wigley outlined the process of acquiring the land when he was Chair of the Parish Council. Cllr Spencer then opened the meeting for comments.
After considerable discussion the following points were agreed:
- the land should remain as garden indefinitely
- that the Shields family are regarded as the preferred custodians
- should the Shields decide not to exercise their right of pre-emption, then this would be opened up again for consultation.
The full notes of the meeting can be read here: Continue Reading »

Local views help to shape new dog orders plan
Derbyshire Dales District Council has responded to the views of local people on proposed dog orders that could become law in public spaces across the Derbyshire Dales from 1 April.
The District Council’s Environment Committee will consider plans next Thursday (26 February) to adopt exclusion orders and a dogs-on-leads policy in certain areas – and give council workers powers to issue fixed penalty notices to dog owners who fail to remove dog mess left by their animals in public places.The proposed orders seek to balance the needs of responsible dog owners against the interests of those affected by dogs, particularly children.
There’s a cost and efficiency element to the proposals too: In addition to spending £830,000 on street cleaning every year – including the cost of emptying 350 dog waste bins across the district – dog fouling complaints have doubled in the Derbyshire Dales in recent years. Continue Reading »

Parwich Parish Council would like to advise about the forthcoming parish council elections in May 2015.
The nomination pack and set of forms are now available to view and download from Derbyshire Dales District Council’s site:
If you are eligible and interested in standing as a member of Parwich Parish Council in May 2015 then please follow the instructions found through the above site regarding the election process and deadlines. Please note applications must not be made to the clerk to Parwich Parish Council.
Parwich Parish Council should consist of 7 members council (to be quorate at meetings there must be at least three parish council members elected in May).
Some members of the present parish council may not choose to stand for another term of office; therefore, if insufficient interest is received by Derbyshire Dales District Council at the elections from present members of the parish council and members of the parish, to be members of Parwich Parish Council, then Parwich parish may be without a parish council.
Please give consideration to this notice, to viewing the information regarding the application process and the implications of possibly being without a parish council.
S Hampson

Flooding and flood risk in Derbyshire – tell us what you think
By law we have to publish a Local Flood Risk Management Strategy (LFRMS).
The LFRMS covers things like responsibilities for managing flooding and flood risk, sources of funding available and how our flood risk management team can support the planning process as well as how we prioritise co-ordinating the management of flooding incidents.
The LFRMS also provides general information about flooding, how people can help themselves and who to call in the event of a flood.
Have your say on our LFRMS by completing our consultation questionnaire
The closing date for responses is Monday 16 March 2015.
