Good to see EHDC have objected to any weekend uplift to flights into Farnborough airport . As the lead Cllr who brought forward the motion on Declaring a Climate emergency at EHDC I was pleased to work with fellow Councillor Nick Drew to ensure EHDC maintained its objection to any further uplift of flights.

At a ‘parish meeting’ on 15 December on the subject of King’s Pond, local residents asked for a ‘parish poll’ to be held with eight questions. The meeting was a meeting of local electors called under legislation going back to 1894, not a Council meeting, but – by law – had to be chaired by the Town Mayor if she was present and so Cllr Annette Eyre chaired, and Town Clerk Tom Horwood was present to advise on the legal process. Residents who are on the Electoral Register proposed and voted on a series of questions and then they decided which questions to put to the wider electorate of Alton and Holybourne.

East Hampshire District Council (EHDC) will run the poll in January and charge the cost to Alton Town Council, estimated by EHDC at £10,000. The law says that the results of the Parish Poll are not binding but must be considered by the town council. Polling stations will be open on a date chosen by EHDC from 4pm to 9pm. The law does not allow polling cards, postal votes or proxy votes for a parish poll.
