Cyber Stubbs The World Wide Web came to Cridling Stubbs recently with the launch of a
new web site; www.cridling-stubbs.co.uk Anyone with information about the village (past or present), who
wants free advertising or who wants to get involved with the site can
submit it via the web site or contact Roger Chapman at Fern Cottage,
Wrights Lane. Parish Meeting or Parish Council All
residents in the parish recently had the chance to vote on the idea of the
Parish Meeting becoming a Parish Council.
The result was that 68 votes were received to become a Parish
Council and 6 votes were received to retain the status quo.
All the returned information has now been sent to Selby District
Council to obtain their view on the matter. Environment Agency Following our complaints, Inspectors have continued their out-of-hours visits to the landfill site. They have found clinical waste that was not disposed of correctly and waste that was insufficiently covered when the site was closed. The company have been issued with THREE enforcement notices on two separate occasions in the last three weeks. These are orders by the Environment Agency to put these matters right within a short length of time.

(freephone) to report smells and dust at any time or uncovered rubbish
when the site is shut. Children’s Library Donations of children’s books have already been received to enable a
trial of this project to begin shortly.
If you have any children’s book you want to donate, please
contact Lisa Smith or Claire Crossdale to have them collected. Next Parish Meeting The
next Cridling Stubbs Parish Meeting is to take place on Tuesday 13th
August at 7.30pm in the village hall.
Items on the agenda are to include the future of the Village Hall,
traffic calming in the village, a Darrington Quarries Liaison Committee update, grass cutting, funding for the
village, the Eggborough Power Station pipeline and the issue of the Parish
Meeting becoming a Parish Council. Everyone
is very welcome to attend. Forthcoming Events As announced in the last issue, a “Social Evening” is to be held at
The Ancient Shepherd. Proceeds
from the evening will help to fund the cost of campaigning against some of
the disturbing activities at the Darrington Quarries Complex (e.g. photos,
printing, telephone calls, and petrol).
Good progress is being made but more money is needed to sustain the
pressure. This Event will be
held on Wednesday, 18 September 2002.
The main attraction will be the vocal and guitar-playing talents of
John Aston. Tickets are
available from The Ancient Shepherd or The Ancient Man (Bryan Crossdale),
priced at £2.50. Come along,
you might even enjoy yourself. |
