A Letter From The Council
|
|
Dear Resident
Following the refurbishment of Grange Park Children’s Play Area, there has been a proposal to install a zip wire for older children, and Grange Park has been suggested as a possible site for it.
Proposed is a 30m long wire with 3.6m support posts at either end.
The Council has received concerns from some residents and park users who believe a zip wire would be a detrimental impact on Grange Park which sits within a Conservation Area. The Council are happy to support the idea of a zip wire but do have reservations about this location, particularly when there are other possible locations in the village. Specifically:
1.Victoria Park where, once the new Scout Hut is completed, this could include additional play equipment. This is close to the village centre but also overlooked by several homes.
2.Iron Row. which will have a Multi-Use Games Area (MUGA.) as part of the wider recreational use of the fields. A zip wire here would not overlook any homes and would fit in with the proposed games area.
3.Adjacent to the skateboard park on the recreation field, where there are already recreational facilities for older children.
What are your views on the location of such a facility?
Please e-mail your views to clerk@burleyparishcouncil.co.uk
and these will be considered as part of the Parish Council discussions
Kind Regards
Ian Orton
Parish Clerk
