Parish Council

The Great Bealings Parish Council meets regularly in the Village Hall. Topics range from organising village events, reviewing local planning applications, dealing with traffic issues, clearing litter, and dealing with local footpath maintenance.

The Parish Council was responsible for taking the initiative in the preparatory stages of the renovation of the John Belstead Playground, but since the implementation project team took over, participates by offering an annual grant to the maintenance of the equipment and the Village Hall.

Currently, there are eight councillors.

Members of the public are welcome to come to all Parish Council meetings which start at 7 pm at the Village Hall. The May meeting is the Annual Parish meeting which also starts at 7 pm.

Meeting dates for 2017:

Tuesday 10th January
Tuesday 14th March
Monday 8th May - also Annual Parish Meeting
Tuesday 4th July
Tuesday 5th September
Tuesday 14th November

All start at 7 pm.

Ideas for village events are always welcome.

Upcoming Agendas

You are reminded that the next Parish Council meeting will be on Tuesday 5th September at 7.00pm in Bealings Village Hall. Any current planning applications will be on the agenda, including DC/17/3496 re. Rosery Farm.

The Chairman will also report on his recent meeting with SCDC in the aftermath of the planning decision on Rosery Farm Cottage. We are now aware of significant consultations that will take place ahead of the revised SCDC Local Plan which is due to be completed in 2019. This will consider, inter alia, the proposed developments to the north of Ipswich and the impact these will have on the need for a northern relief road. In addition DCLG is in the process of running a consultation on the way Neighbourhood Plans are consulted as part of the planning system and we may wish to consider participating in that consultation.
