Statement from the Parish Council in regard to the Boom Solar Panel development
While it has been noted that some members of the local community or further afield may feel disappointed that the Spaldington Parish Council have not categorically been against the solar farm development, the Council have rightly taken a decision to wait for the actual planning application before a formal stance of the Parish Council is taken by the Councillors after a proper analysis and review . They do wish it noted that while some members of the community do wish to protest as strongly as possible against the development (as they are perfectly entitled to), some members of the community are not against the proposed development and thus it would be irresponsible for the Spaldington Parish Council to take a position on the development when not all the details of the planned development are known, as well as the fact that the actual planning application has not been submitted.
A significant element of proper Parish Council management is not to predetermine any issues before the Parish Council Meetings and before all the information is known. If the Councillors did this it would be abject rejection of proper Parish Council obligations as per legislation.
The Council also wish the community and the stakeholders further afield to know that the Council has written several times to the proposed developer with many, and detailed concerns of the Parish Council of current known plan details specifically the effect on the local Spaldington community as well as possible detrimental issues that may last for many generations. The Councillors have undertaken this to ensure that when the formal planning application is made, the Planning Committee, both local and national, are aware of the many concerns raised and can be conscious of these when reviewing the application.
The Council have received a response from the developer and their representatives of the concerns raised by Spaldington Parish Council. They have also been in regular contact with the local Member of Parliament to ensure that if / when this planning issue gets to a national planning regulator, the interests and concerns of the affected local communities are properly represented.
The Council feel that staying neutral until all the detail is known after the formal planning application is submitted is the proper way forward, which then will allow a proper, detailed and appropriate conclusion on the stance that the Spaldington Parish Council will take.
The Parish Council will always act in the best interests of the community of Spaldington. But will also always welcome feedback from the local members of the community.

Precept for Spaldington for 2023/24
The Parish Council wishes to let the Community of Spaldington know that at the meeting of the Parish Council on the 21 December 2022, the Councillors agreed that they would reduce the Precept for the 2023/24. They have followed through with their commitment made in January 2022 and the Precept will reduce by £1,250 or 15%. The Council have accepted the recommendation by the Clerk that both allows the Council to ensure it is financially sound but also recognises the fact that the community is facing increased economic pressures. The Chair wishes to reassure the community that despite the reduction of the precept, the Council now had a solid financial base.

Statement by Ms Alison Inglis on behalf of Inglis Farming Ltd
Following a successful meeting with a representative of the AD Plant, the Councillors were able to ensure that their concerns were raised with the various personnel from the organisation and in return the AD Plant gave a commitment to review the issues and ascertain how they can help.
A statement was issued by the contractors of the AD Plant:
We are the contractors who remove the digestate that is produced by the R100 AD Plant, this is an organic fertilizer, which is then spread on the land of local farmers.
We are aware that during the early summer this year we had a couple of issues with one of our drivers, we can only apologise for the driver mounting the grass verge on Spaldington Lane, she was faced with a lorry coming in the other direction, who did not use the passing place she was expecting him to and unfortunately she saw no other option, we use only experienced tractor drivers and have made sure that this has not happened since with a bit of in house training. Also, there was an incident which led to a broken wing mirror and again we offer our sincere apologies, the wing mirror was replaced and paid for us straight away.
Living in a nearby village ourselves we make sure our drivers keep to the speed limit and are respectful of the unspoken " rural code ".
If there are any issues/problems going forwards, please contact either myself (07921 765 760 allisoninglis@btinternet.com) or Robert (07801 663 146 robertinglis04@btinternet.com) and we will address your concerns immediately.
It is our aim to promote a positive relationship between ourselves and the local community and to be open and available at all times.

Meeting with the Howden Development Developers - J G Hatcliffe Property & Planning
Following a meeting with the developers of the very large Howden development which would look to build new roads, 3000 properties (eventually) as well as new infrastructure, the Spaldington Parish Council were able to discuss their concerns about the impact of this major development on Spaldington and particular the roads around the village - specifically the C88. It was felt that the concerns were needed to be expressed to ensure that when the final plans of the development were agreed with ERYC, the concerns of Spaldington PC were included.
The developers were very open to the concerns and appreciated that the major development would probably involve an increase in large scale traffic, specifically HGVs, and that some road users may look to use the C88 as a shortcut to get back to the motorways. They assured the PC that they would ensure that any contracts with building contractors would include some safeguards on road usage, and in addition once the development commenced they would sponsor the application to the Highways to introduce a weight limit on the road but with some local access for local companies.
It was agreed that to ensure that the developers would stand by their commitments, they would issue the following statement:
J G Hatcliffe Property & Planning welcomed the opportunity to discuss further the concerns of Spaldington Parish Council in respect of the impact of HGV’s currently being experienced on the C88 together with your additional concerns of the potential consequential impact of our proposed ‘HOW-G’ development.
As a result of the meeting Tony Kirby, Director of Local Transport Projects, has produced a preliminary plan on our behalf detailing proposed 7.5T environmental weight limits in Spaldington (copy plan attached). The Plan also includes proposed weight limit restrictions on Station Road and Flatgate, Howden. A meeting has been held with East Riding of Yorkshire Council and the proposals detailed in the Plan were discussed and positively received. J G Hatcliffe have agreed to promote the weight limit proposals which it will endeavour to include in any future 106 Agreement relating to the HOW-G development. In addition, J G Hatcliffe have offered to fund the associated Traffic Regulation Order that will be required.
For clarification, the weight limit restrictions will only take effect once the new HOW-G Relief Road has been completed, however, any planning approval for the road will require a Construction Traffic Management Plan that would impose a routing strategy for all traffic during the construction phase.

Invitation to the community for volunteers to help manage the Phone Box uses
The Parish Council has recently received numerous ideas on what to do with the refurbished phone box which is nearly finished. Whilst the Council wish to properly review the ideas, including having a mini-library, they are wanting to invite the local community or community groups, to offer any expressions of interest in helping to manage the phone box once the future use has been decided by the Parish Council. The main issue the Council wishes to explore is the resources needed and thus want to invite any local interest help manage the use.

Good news - article in the Goole Times
The Spaldington Parish Council is very proud to announce that there was an article in the Goole Times this week about the village and community of Spaldington. The Parish Council wished to formally lay thanks to two local businesses - SALKO Ltd and ASHTONS COMPOSTING Ltd - who have been very generous over the recent year in community projects. They both stepped in at very late notice when promised local funding for the new Village Noticeboard fell through at the last minute - both local businesses agreed to provide the necessary funding (in excess of £1,500) to ensure that the liability didn't fall on the shoulders of the local community through the precept.

Harassment of the Council by a minority of the community
The Council has unfortunately found itself the victim of an attempt of having their reputation besmirched through at attempt at falsehoods and accusations being spread by a very small minority of the community.
Despite the minority being asked to stop their harassment of the Councillors and the Clerk and providing no evidence, they have continued which has resulted in the Council having no choice but to report these people to the Police for harassment as well as involving the Council's Solicitors which has unfortunately resulted in the use of Council funds. The Council take unfounded and unwarranted harassment of it's members and staff seriously and while they will always encourage healthy debate, and will welcome tough questions, they will not accept harassing actions by a minority.
The Council represent all the Community and will strive to serve their needs - the vast majority of the community support the Council and respect the hard work of the Councillors. Everyone is entitled to their views - no one is entitled to harass Councillors and the Clerk. The Council will always stand up to people they consider are attempting to bully both the Councillors and the community.
As we have been made aware the minority are continuing making unfounded and incorrect statements about the Council, the Council have taken the unusual step of publishing the letter our Solicitors have sent to the individuals making the statements (this has been redacted). This to is to ensure that the vast majority of the Community are fully aware of the legal opinion on the actions of the minority.
For the vast majority of the community - we sincerely thank you for your support. To the minority - we will stand up to your bullying actions and for what is right for the community.

Schedule of Delegated Authority to the Clerk
The Council wishes to ensure the Community are aware that following the Government and the Courts decision not to allow the continued remote Full Parish Council Meetings by a remote means after 07 May 2021, the Council faced a judgement call as any future Full Council Meetings would need to be face to face. The Councillors felt that it was not safe enough in their judgement to meet in person and thus as of 03 May 2021 delegated their authority (as per permitted under Local Government Act 1972 Section 101) to the Proper Officer of the Council (who is the Clerk) to start on the 07 May 2021.
There are a few areas where the Council cannot delegate their authority including agreeing the Precept and Budget, hire or fire officers or employees and some statutory powers - but the general operations, including authorising payments, supporting (or not) planning permissions, agreeing Meetings, persons representing the Council (not including Councillors) etc are included.
The Scheme of Delegated Authority will last for a period of six months or until the Council meet face to face and pass a motion to suspend the delegated authority.
The Proper Officer has committed to a process where he will seek the advice of the Councillors before making decisions as to ensure any decisions that are made are representative of the Council. But the final decision under this delegated authority will be with the Clerk.
There will be Clerk Advisory Meetings on the first Monday of every month (the same as the pattern of Full Parish Council Meetings) and all members of the public will be invited to both ask questions of the Council with the Chair moderating (in the same format as the Full Parish Council Meetings).
The Council feel that on the vast amount of areas, the Community will not notice any difference in Council operations but wanted to ensure the Community was aware.

The new defibrillator in the Parish
The Council after reviewing the old defib machine in the Parish, found that it was beyond use as it not been maintained unfortunately. As the defib machine may be crucial to saving a life in the community, the Council took the decision to enter into a new leasing arrangement with Defib Ltd. This new defib machine has been fitted and is ready to use in an emergency - the code of the secure box it sits in is known by the Councillors but crucially by the emergency service in the event of a 999 call.
The defib is near the noticeboard in Main Street, Spaldington.
Whilst training is not needed in an emergency situation as the defib machine gives instructions, our suppliers have provided an overview of how it works if any member of the community wishes to review it in action. The link is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Pnaf5t7HhI
