Announcements
Pathfinder
West Wycombe has been selected as a Parish for the Pathfinder Trial. The Governent have decided that County and District Councils should become unitary bodies or join the Pathfinder Scheme.
BCC and the four District Councils have chosen Pathfinder, had they chosen the unitary route the services and facilities provided by Wycombe District Council would have been absorbed into BCC and we would have lost our District Council.
At the time of writing we are not sure of our role in this new process but we suspect that it will interface with the devolved powers planned by the Government in late summer. This will hopefully give us far more control at parish level.
Playing Field
The Parish Council is negotiating the takeover of the lease from Sir Edward Dashwood. If successful a new fence will be erected and the necessary steps taken with a view to installing play equipment. There is an ongoing commitment to the Hithercroft Football Club to use the area for their football training and matches.
Roadworks
It has been agreed with BCC that the village entry 'treatments' – the cream areas of ‘tarmac’ are to be removed due to the continued maintenance burden.
Parish Office Closed - 19th August
The office will be closed from from 19th August and re-open on 10th September. If you need to contact the Parish Council during this period please telephone the Chairman whose details can be found on our contact page.
