Minutes of the New Hutton Parish Council meeting held on Tuesday 10th July, 2012

120710-1 Present
Pat Bell, Henry Robinson, Martyn Welch, Tony Porter (Chairman), Arthur Robinson (clerk), and 9 parishioners

120710-1 Apologies
Tony Ellis and Stan Collins (CCC councillor)

120710-2 Acceptance of the minutes of the last meetings
The chairman signed the minutes of the annual parish meeting, the parish council AGM and the ordinary council meeting held on 29-05-2012 as true records.

120710-3 Chairman’s announcements
(a) The chairman thanked the parishioners who keep the Millennium Garden and the bus shelter clean.
(b) The planning application for a wind turbine on Hawkrigg Hill was defeated on 28-06-2012. The chairman thanked those who attended and spoke.
(c) An application for a wind monitoring mast at the proposed Killington wind farm site was approved on the same date by the SLDC Planning Committee.
(d) Notification has been received about a proposed application to erect a wind turbine on Town House land near Greenmoor Bank. It was noted that an environmental impact assessment (EIA) will not be required. A subsequent enquiry to SLDC revealed that while a formal EIA is not required, the developers have been advised to submit assessments of the visual impact and of the impacts on birds etc; this is the same planning practice as with the Hawkrigg Hill application.
(e) Banks Renewables (Killington and Armistead wind farms) have made the first steps to establish whether the provision of broadband for the area by satellite would be possible and desired.
(f) Banks Renewables are investigating the ownership of a patch of land on the Killington wind farm site which was awarded to New Hutton church in the Killington Enclosure Award Act of 1820. It is not yet clear whether it belongs to the church or to the vicar (and thus the diocese).
(g) The Chairman will write to the Chairman of the SLDC Planning Committee about issues to do with the granting of permission for the house currently being erected in the village.
