(4) On Wednesday 25^th January, at 15:00 there is another reminiscence session in Ecclesfield Library, partly to discuss its continuation after the end of funding from the Ecclesfield Civil Parish Archiving Project.

Information watch

The items in this section will not be gone through one by one, but can be discussed in any other business if any member wishes to bring them up.

• Rubbish was reported to have been set on fire on Church Street http://www.thestar.co.uk/news/arsonists-wanted-over-blazes-across-south-yorkshire-1-8348027, and a car on Grange Lane.

 

Issues from previous minutes

If any members can help, or want to bring any of the following up for any other reason, they can do so in any other business.

 

*     Our archive needs quite a bit of work to get going - perhaps as a window to our physical archive.

 

*     Designs for the pop-up banners are still in progress.

 

*      We have a fireproof trunk for storing archive material. Members might prefer a more generally accessible location if one can be found [As well as perhaps other things such as our Gazebo].

 

*      We still have plans to survey major trees within the Conservation Area (we have just lost two major trees from the land between St Mary’s Lane and Ecclesfield Park).

 

*      We are still encouraging Sheffield City Council to proceed with their project to get their alcohol licensing system on-line so that everybody can see the opening times etc. which apply to each of the premises in the area. Meanwhile, we are continuing to check their manual list of licence applications.

New planning applications

The following planning applications were found by searching for Ward = “East Ecclesfield”, Parish = Ecclesfield Parish Council”, postcodes S35 9?? and S35 1TE, validated from 25^th Oct 2016 - 23^rd Jan 2017.

[The contents of brackets and italics are my interpretation - usually made after only briefly scanning the documents. If you want more information, please note that I have had problems with the links to some of the planning applications, and had to remove their underlining. However, you should always be able to search for the Ref. No on Sheffield city council’s planning web site.]

[Seems to involve the creation of 5 new parking spaces and an extra 41 m^2 of internal floor space for the petrol station. The plans were too low a resolution for me to see properly, but I did not find any reference to electric vehicle charging facilities. This is in spite of some of their stations already having them https://speakev.com/threads/list-of-morrisons-with-charge-points.9158/ ]

Demolition of rear porch and erection of single storey rear extension to dwellinghouse
335 The Common Sheffield S35 9WL
Ref. No: 16/04322/FUL | Received: Tue 15 Nov 2016 | Validated: Tue 15 Nov 2016 | Status: Awaiting decision

[The block plan looks wrong to me, but I think this is the fifth semi-detached house up from Harrods Caterers. The extension is large, and its side wall nearer to the neighbouring property than the existing house, however it is only single story. I could not see what the effect on access to the back of the house might be, or any garage or car parking space. The extension itself is marked as a dining room.]

Ref. No: 16/03601/FUL | Received: Wed 21 Sep 2016 | Validated: Thu 29 Sep 2016 | Status: Awaiting decision

[This is the detached house on the left  when going out of Ecclesfield, just beyond the cattery. It has a rendered upper floor. It is proposed to replace the existing well set back garage with a partly two story side extension. It could be overdevelopment. It seems to extend to the boundary of the property, presenting a long, high wall to its neighbour, who has objected on the grounds of light and views.]
