VANDALISED XMAS LIGHTS IN WATERLOOVILLE

By


Who are the 'low life' who hate Waterlooville so much that they don't want festive lighting in the precinct? The volunteers from the Events team have spent a lot of money and time to try and make Waterlooville look festive but having seen what some 'people' think about it makes you wonder why we bother.
Today we went to change the batteries in the tree lights as some were not working. The reason was that the battery casings had been torn/cut off so the lights no longer worked. Councillor Mike Sceal went into the tree by Nat West to locate a connection further up and managed to connect another casing in the tree, but the lights in the tree by Lloyds bank could not be fixed.
If you see something untoward or if you see the lights not working let us know. We had hoped to put battery lights in all the trees in Waterlooville precinct next year but if they are to be vandalised is it worth it??

COMMUNITY MEETING

By
Business meetings every 2 months have been held in Waterlooville for the last year.  At the last meeting in September it was decided to open up the meetings to the local residents as well as businesses as it was an opportunity for the people who live in Waterlooville to find out more about what is going on...BAE site and leisure facilites;  Wellington Way; cycle paths; shops closing; improve pavillion in the Jubilee park  etc etc.  All those things people talk about.  Come along to the next meeting and ask those questions and push for answers.  For too long Waterlooville has been very quiet perhaps this is the time to push the council.  Your local ward councillors will be there as well as council officers and cabinet members.  The next meeting is on: MONDAY 27 NOVEMBER 6pm St Georges Church Hall  Tell your friends and bring them along

BUSINESS/COMMUNITY MEETING

By
Business/community meeting held last night. Sadly only ONE business attended and 20 residents. Even with such a poor turn out some interesting topics were discussed and it was agreed that there should be another meeting in Mid July but at 7.30pm so that more people will be able to attend. The 5.30 start had been to encourage businesses, but that obviously failed! From the meeting: Subway being repaired;Jubilee park facilities under review - A meeting to be called to discuss way forward for the park. Wellington way- discussion on lack of parking etc. Comments can still be sent to HBC until beginning of June. Remember next meeting will be mid July, Date will be well publicised with plenty of advance notice. If still a  poor turn out there will be no more!
