August Parish Council Report
Planning - 1, Moorside: The Parish Council had no objections to the erection of a single storey extension, but was concerned about the proposed conversion of the garage to a utility room as this could cause the loss of a parking space.
Blythwyc Cottage, The Street: The Parish Council had no objections to the erection of part two-storey and part single-storey side/ rear extension and replacement garage.
Manor House, The Street: There were no objections by the Councillors to the extensions to create a single residential property.
The Parish Council and other residents were very disappointed that Walberswick's most original and distinguished Arts and Crafts garden path had been removed from Marsh End without any reference to the Historical Society or English Heritage. The Council would like to ask residents in older properties in the Village to refer to these bodies before removing anything that maybe of historical interest.
Concern was expressed that static caravans were being placed on properties without planning permission. This would be referred to the Planning Department. Concern had also been expressed about the safety of the building at Lampland, Stocks Lane. It was agreed to contact Building Control at Suffolk Coastal.
The Jubilee seat was in the process of being repaired. The post supporting the village sign needed replacing. This would be treated as a matter of urgency and removed as soon as possible.
Viv Hunt, Clerk to Council
