Website:

As you can see the site is now getting regular updates.

It would be very helpful if you could e-mail the Secretary with your e-mail address so we can send essential information to you over the internet. We promise not to bombard you with junk mail or sell on your e-mail address!

The Secretary's e-mail address is  weluplandsroads@aol.com , or use the  Contact  page on this site.

 

Meetings:

The 2009 AGM took place on Monday 8th June 2009. 14 residents attended representing 11 households. Thanks goes to those who attended and for their input during the meeting.

The minutes of both this meeting and past AGM's can be downloaded by clicking below :-

Hard copies of the Minutes and Invoices for the 2009/10 levy will be distributed shortly.

Regarding WURA's policy on new housing developments it was agreed that the Committee would continue to support objections on a case by case basis with a view to helping to maintain the character of Kenley.

Annual levy: The meeting agreed that the names of households seriously in arrears with the road levy will be recorded in the Minutes of each AGM. Clearly it is not possible for the Committee to waive collection of the levy for any resident in the WURA area without a very good reason.

 

Planning Applications:

There are currently no planning applications to report.

 

Do You Need Planning Permission:

Just a quick reminder to everyone - do please check the need for planning permission before embarking upon any property alterations, extensions etc. There have been a few cases recently where retrospective planning permission has had to be applied for and this is not ideal for the applicant or neighbours who could be affected by the developments. There is also the question of the management of construction traffic and the need for an agreement with WURA on paying for any damage to the roads maintained at your expense. Copies of revised standard agreements for contractors and developers can be downloaded by clicking the two links below (pdf documents):
 

New Committee Members:

Due to losses from the Committee in the past year we urgently need 2 new members so please contact  Colin Brown  (Chairman) or  Richard Russell  (Secretary) if you can help. There are about 4 meetings a year at members' houses plus the AGM.
