Thought they would have updated it by now, spoke to "The Leader of the Council" about this months ago :D

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

You would think they would post the minutes as well.

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

I could post a few of the minutes if I can find where I put them that is.

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

as promised park381 I attach the info for the next area council meeting. Why dont all you Ossy folk come along? Joking aside it would be nice to see the meeting with standing room only for a change. It is your Ossy so have your say.

I started going just because of Rhyddings Grass Verges. I now try an attend all the meetings. It is surprising what you can learn about things happening and about to happen in Ossy.

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

I used to go to area meetings but they were so boring that I gave up. Have they improved?

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

Yes great fun are you in ossy?

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

Hi, from this weeks observer (page 23) there is a meeting on 12th April at Ossy town hall, " facilities for youngsters", will be there.
Thanks for the attachments as well

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

Yes. The first time I went I took my notepad to take down any interesting points. I went home with a blank pad. Just a load of moaners, and if I want that I just come on this site - lol.

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

I see from the invite letter, HBC plan "BIG" changes for rhyddings park. That should be most interesting,since it's in a conservation area.
Who knows, they may include plans for a car par within the park :D

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

I think they are refering to the project of moving the park wall back 10 feet to improve your access on Park Lane

Hey HBC are in debt now, you want to totally bank them. Could be the all weather pitch that was talked about several years ago, oh and I think it included full flood lighting. :D

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

You never know, the changes may be;

-Rebuilding the badstand, a gift from the people of our twin town Falkenburg.
-TarMac-ing the botton path, parallel with Park Lane, last done in 1969.
-Re-installing the paddling pool.
-Bringing back the pitch 'n' put.
-Resurfacing the tennis courts, putting the nets back.
-Re-building the pavillion.
-Planting flowers in the beds other than at the Park gates.

Probably not, easier to give in to the vandals!

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

Now you've gone and reminded me what parks used to be like! I think they abandoned paddling pools to stop children drowning, although I never remember anybody drowning in one when I was a kid.


Wouldn't it be nice if we had a sudden influx of money and all the parks in the borough could be restored to their former glory. Stop dreaming Willow, it will never happen.:rolleyes:

Re: the all weather pitch.
He'll never be able to sell the Stop & Rest now!

Bet the people will be up in arms on Edinbugh Drive though, it was bad enough re: the lights in the playground.
There is a defo need for it though, might have been better on the Heys though.

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

I used to live close to one of the all weather, lit play areas in Burnley ( shhh don't tell anyone I used to live in Burnley is was a log time ago). It was rare to see kids hanging around on the street corners because they had somewhere to go. I never had a problem with noise because it had been sensibly sited to avoid annoying nieghbours. Burnley used to have several and I always thought they were a superb idea.

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

There is a need for an all weather pitch, The one at the top of the Heys playing field used to belong to Rhyddings school, but is little more than a cinder hard core pitch.
Re: the quad bikers, they go in the park too, have you never seen them? Little kids on bikes, who buys the petrol?
Won't the new lights light up Park Lane if they're lit on pylons and pointing your way? l for one look forward to seeing what you lot get up to down there. :)

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

He has no time to reacd the paper, he is on here all night :).

I am sure that any lighting would be local lighting designed to light up the play area and not the whole of Ossy.

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

The old play area isn't big enough for a full size pitch unles they extend it.

They'd have to be pity strong lights for me to read all night by as l live near the nature reserve. l was going to spy on you from my Mum's and then go home when fully satisfied.

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

l think if they do decide to build a small all-weather pitch, in the hollow where the old play area was it's a daft idea.
The reason it was moved was because it was hidden, it was a meeting place for the hooligans. Now they'll be able to vandalise in all-weathers without getting their trainers muddy.

Park381, was you in the tree as l left the drive? l saw you watching me, l hope you didn't hurt yourself when you fell out of it? :)

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

If you see me again shout and say hello, intoduce yourself l won't bite. Unless you are a squirrel and really do live IN the Park, as this would freak me out and make me think l've taken my tablets at the wrong time. :)

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

Yes I will do that, but take care I move very quickly...............from tree to tree;)
Just keep taking the pills.

Re: Oswaldtwistle Area Council Meetings
 

Just a reminder the Area Council Meeting is Tomorrow Tuesday 12th April at 7pm. i will be there, sat at the back with the big nose and glasses kit on so you wont see me :)
