Infrastructure planning in Worcestershire

Have your say on planning in Worcestershire?
The planning consultation database for the county is being refreshed and Worcestershire County Council would like to invite residents and businesses to register so that they can have their say on planning matters.
The Council plays a significant planning role across the whole of Worcestershire including policies and strategies about minerals and waste and major infrastructure projects like new railway stations and bridges.
Councillor Marc Bayliss, Worcestershire County Councillor with Responsibility for Economy Infrastructure and Skills, said:
“Community engagement plays a vital role in the way we make our plans, and I cordially invite residents and businesses to register to participate and influence this process. Our work includes developing important strategies relating to ecology and biodiversity that make Worcestershire distinct and special, as well as planning for infrastructure such as schools and highway projects.
This is a great way for people to hear about what is going on and get involved in the planning work we do.”

VILLAGE SCOOPS TITLE IN CALOR VILLAGE CONTEST

The picturesque village of Inkberrow has scooped the title of Worcestershire Village of the Year 2006.

It received the top accolade in the Calor Village of the Year competition after being assessed in a number of categories including business, young people, older people, the environment and information computer technology (ICT).

Inkberrow was also declared the winner of the Building Community Life section of the competition, scooping prize money of £500.

As 2006 Worcestershire Village of the Year, Inkberrow will now go forward to compete for the national title where there will be the chance to win a slice of £39,000.

It will compete against 40 other villages and will be initially judged against those in Cornwall, Devon, Gloucestershire, Herefordshire, Shropshire, Somerset and Wiltshire.

Inkberrow Parish Council clerk Janet Cresswell said: “We are all absolutely thrilled to have been named Worcestershire Village of the Year.

“We all love Inkberrow and are very proud of what has been achieved here, but it’s always nice that other people acknowledge it.

“When the judges came to assess the village, there was torrential rain, despite all the lovely weather we’d had previously.

“But the judges saw past the dreadful weather to see what a great village we have.

“This award is a credit to all those who worked so hard to put our case across, especially Elizabeth Collins.”
