Proposal to merge the two wards in Burton Green.

18/8/2022

 
Residents will shortly receive a letter from Warwick District Council asking for their opinions on a proposal to remove the ward boundary between the Burton Green ward (7 Councillors) and the University Ward (4 Councillors) and for the Parish Council to become one single electoral area with eleven Councillors. With this re-arrangement, all 11 elected Councillors would work for the whole Parish electoral area, and not within their ward area.

The District Council wants to know what residents within the Parish think about this proposed re-arrangement and invites residents to send their views in writing to Gillian Friar, Electoral Services Manager, Warwick District Council, Riverside House, Milverton Hill, Royal Leamington Spa, Warwickshire CV32 5HZ or by email to elections@warwickdc.gov.uk.
The deadline for sending views and responses for consideration in this first stage is noon Thursday 6 October 2022.

If you have any questions for the Parish Council about the proposal please feel free to contact the Clerk. For more details about the Community Governance Review process please visit the Warwick District Council website here.

Update for 123+ waste deliveries

1/8/2022

 
Key messages for residents: 
  • Regardless of any teething issues all residents will get their waste collected even if they have not received the correct bin at the time of their first collection.
  • Deliveries of the food caddies and blue-lidded recycling bins are ongoing, but delivery is currently slightly behind schedule. Deliveries will carry on over the weekend and into next week
  • Some residents have not received their bins and calendars
  • Priority is being given to the delivery of food caddies and the Council is working hard to deliver all of these by 1 August with the additional help of Biffa.
  • Priority is also being given to the delivery of recycling bins for those properties that have a recycling collection next week and for those needing additional garden waste bins in Warwick.
 
Responses to help with current concerns: 
  1. I have not received my bins yet - they only need to report this once by emailing 123collections@warwickdc.gov.uk or 123collections@stratford-dc.gov.uk. One of the problems we are having is residents reporting things several times and it is taking us a considerable time to sift out repeated details. All enquiries go through to the SDC contact centre.  Please encourage everyone to email rather than try to ring as the current volume of calls is incredibly high. 
  2. I have not received my food caddy – food waste can be put into the garden waste (green) bin temporarily if they’ve subscribed to the garden waste service. Otherwise, food waste can be placed in the grey bin until the new food caddy arrives.
  3. I have not received my new blue-lidded wheeled bin - priority is being given to those properties that have a recycling collection next week. 
  4. I have not received my blue-lidded wheeled bin and my collection is now due - continue to use the red boxes to present the recycling. There is no need to sort it, just put it all in their red boxes for it to be collected.  If residents have a blue-lidded bin but have extra recycling, then they can use their red boxes to put out the extra next to their bin. This will always be the case.
  5. I have not received an information book or calendar – you can view the information, collection dates and the schedule on the WDC website here.
