FESTIVE GREETINGS TO OSCOTT RESIDENTS

I know from my case work 2015 has been a difficult and frustrating year for a number of Oscott residents.
Although the cuts in Council services expected next year due to lack of funding may make things equally troubling for some I will again do what I can to help although as ever I can make no promises.

all But lets try to be optimistic and I would like to take this opportunity to wish Oscott residents a very Happy Christmas and a prosperous and Peaceful New Year.

OSCOTT SOUP KITCHEN IS STILL NEEDED

A

s we enter the festive season I would like to thank the Seventh Day Adventist group volunteers for the work they do every Wednesday lunch time at the 610 Community Centre. During this time they operate a soup kitchen where a number of local residents can get a mug of free soup.

It is so easy to forget at this time of year the effects on poorer residents many of the Central Governments cuts are having surly they need to think again about their cuts and Austerity program..

WELL DONE MUAREEN BYRNE FOR PUTTING ON THE OSCOTT ELDERLY RESIDENTS FESTIVE TREET.

Along with my fellow Osott Ward Councillors, Barbara Dring, Tristan Chatfield and  I enjoyed a festive lunch today with the Oscott Elderly residents group. Following an entertaining meeting at the 610 Community Centre the OERG member went on to enjoy their festive meal at the Parson and Clark Public House.
It is amazing how much hard work Chair Maureen Byrne and her team of volunteers put in to ensure so many of Oscott more elderly resident get get out of their own homes to enjoy themselves in good company.

Before the main lunch 2 Chrismas hamper (made up from donate goods given by members of the group )were won by lucky members with the correct raffle tickets.

FOR MORE DETAILS ABOUT THIS GROUP PLEASE RING 675 2349

OSCOTT DOG OWNERS PLEASE REMOVE YOUR DOGS MESS.

From the amount of post I am receiving it is clear dog fouling is still of great concern to many Oscott residents, especially mothers with young children.

I would appeal to dog owners please remove your dogs mess and ensure it is disposed of correctly and don't forget to take a bag out with you when you take your dog for a walk following your Christmas lunch for a bit of exercise.

OSCOTT SCHOOLS TO BE ASKED TO MEET TO DISCUSS PARKING PROBLEMS

Parking around schools in Oscott has been a real problem for a number of years.

The Police have been forced to be involved, dealing with countless complaints from residents complaining about inconsiderate and sometimes dangerous parking by some parents when they are picking up or dropping off the children at school.

The Council has in a number of places put in physical measures but like the Police Government cuts in their budget have made things much worse for them to do much more.

The Police now have fewer officers (and it will get worse) to deal with parking problems around schools. Past government cuts in their funding has began to really bite.
There is also the issue of air quality near our schools which is made worse by cars idling when parked close to schools Air quality is a serious issue and causes many health issues and problems environmental when poor.

With this in mind I am calling a meeting with all the schools in Oscott, the Local Police and the Birmingham City Transport department to discuss the joint issues that effect all the Oscott schools.

All schools in the Oscott area are involved when it comes to parking problems around Oscott schools as there are always knock on effects. I will be asking schools for their concerns and to see how they have tried to deal with the issue.

I hope all schools in the Oscott area will take this issue seriously and work with me and other agencies to try and at least ease some of the problems.

I will also be asking that this subject be part of a future Oscott ward meeting in order for residents to come along and have their say.

IMPROVEMENTS TO KINGSTANDING LIBRARY ON THE WAY

For many months now Councillors Barbara Dring, Tristan Chatfield and myself have fought to improve the Kingstanding library.
I am pleased to let you know the Council has been  successful in obtaining £250k of funding from The Wolfson Foundation to undertake improvements to five children’s library facilities in the city, and that these improvements are scheduled for the new year.

Kingstanding library is one of the libraries that will be included in the investment programme which will include

• Capital works to improve each of the 5 libraries including i.e. decoration, new floor coverings, shelving, lighting, signage and furniture. The specifics of what is required will vary from site to site.

• Technology including ipad and android devices, plasma screens, photography, DSLR cameras

• Activities including a local history project on what it is like to be living in Birmingham and attending school in 2015-16.

It is intended to undertake the improvement programme and refurbishment work for Kingstanding library from 15th Feb – 4th March and the library would need to be closed for this period. If you want to know any more details please let me know.

MARYVALE ELDERLY RESIDENTS GROUP CHRISTMAS DINNER GOES WELL.

At the request of the Maryvale helpers I popped along to the Beeches pub today (not for a drink) but to say along to the MaryVale Elderly Residents Group who were having their Christmas dinner there. Once again members of the group made me feel very welcome and some insisted on a kiss!

QUESLETT ROAD JUNCTION ACCIDENT CAUSES DELAYS AGAIN

Although the creation of an extra lane leading from the Queslet Road to the Queslett Road slip road near the Nova Court Junction has helped the recent accident at the week end has show more needs to be done.
Every time there is an accident near this junction residents living in Booth Lane, Caddick Road and Bowman Road are trapped on that estate due to the fact that junction is the only exit.

Along with local residents as part of a working party I am working with Taylor Wimpey and the Transportation department to get the Booths Lane made into a through road again. There are still major problems however due to Taylor Wimpy and their Health and safety department.
The road is a private one currently  owned by the developer Taylor Wimpy.

I am also still calling for traffic lights to be placed at the Nova Court to Queslett Road junction.

TRISTAN CHATFIELD RE SELECTED TO FIGHT FOR OSCOTT

The Oscott Branch Labour Party re selected Councillor Tristan Chatfield to stand for the Labour Party at the Local Elections next year.
Tristan has done a great job since his election 3 and a half years ago fighting along side Councillor Barbara Dring and myself on behalf of Oscott residents.
Like Birmingham Oscott has had to deal with unprecedented cuts due to Centrals governments decision to cut so much from the funds they give to the BCC.
There has been nothing like it before and things will only get worse. This is the reason we need an effective Oscott Labour Team to help mitigated the worst of the effect's of these cuts.

Things will be tough and there can be no promises other than we the Oscott Councillors will do what we can to help residents.

CHRISTMAS WASTE COLLECTION DETAILS

Christmas waste collections

Residents in OSCOTT are being reminded of this year’s Christmas waste collection arrangements with one month until festivities begin.

As is normally the case, the council’s crews, who work on all other Bank Holidays, will not operate on Christmas Day, Boxing Day (or any Bank Holidays staged when either of those two days are at the weekend).

This year that means there will be no collections of refuse or recycling of Friday 25th December and Monday 28th December.

Anyone due collections of general household waste on those two days are scheduled to next have a collection on Friday 1st January or Monday 4th January.

Anyone due recycling collections on Friday 25th December and Monday 28th December are therefore scheduled to next have a collection on Friday 8th January or Monday 11th January.

COUNCILLOR JOHN CLANCY TO BECOME LEADER OF THE BIRMINGHAM CITY COUNCIL

 

After an interesting night Councillor John Clancy was narrowly elected as the Birmingham City Labour Councillors Group Leader. This should mean he becomes leader of the BCC at its next full meeting.
John beat off some excellent opposition to Win on the night.
John knows the Oscott area and my ward colleagues and I will be lobbying him on behalf of Oscott residents.
Sadly as most of us know due to the unprecedented cuts being made to the BCC funding by Central government, we are all about to find life much tougher.
 I know John will do what he can to mitigate the worst effect of these horrendous government cuts but he wont be able to create miracles.

PERRY BARR MP SUPPORTS OSCOTT CAMPAIGN FOR BETTER TREE PRUNING.

Khalid Mahmood MP for Perry Barr has assured me he is still keeping the pressure on the government department responsible for tree pruning policy's, with regards to having what appear to be a very poor policy and set of standards changed.

Khalid fully understands the concerns of Oscott residents when it comes to the problems they have with old , over sized trees in their road. he is fully backing my campaign for more to be done about the problems conacted with trees in the Oscott area.

Problems such as the need for more  large tree replacement, falling branches, poor light and roots issues which all need to be addressed better.

As part of my campaign Councillor Tristan Chatfield is organising a further pubic meeting on the subject of trees in the new year. The meeting will be chaired by Councillor Barbara Dring.

All of your 3 Oscott Councillor are regularly out and about in the Oscott Ward discussing with t residents the problems they face due to trees not being pruned enough.
 Getting something done is not going to be easy but we will be giving it a go.

WELL DONE TO THE FRIENDS OF THE QUESLETT NATURE RESERVE.

Despite the rain and wind the Friends of the Queslett Nature Reserve were out and about (Saturday 14th) as part of an activity day, litter picking and pruning.
I would like to thank all those involved for their hard work despite the weather. There work is certainly making a difference.

HAWTHORN/ KINGSTANDING ROAD TRAFFIC LIGHTS TO GET OVERHAUL BUT DELAYS MAY BE EXPECTED

Following an investigation at my request to the contractor Amey high ways  Signals Repair Team on 3^rd November, I can confirm that temporary repair works are now complete.

However, Amey have been aware for some time that there is an ongoing problem with this set of lights. Therefore they have instructed their subcontractors to strip and replace a number of cables and reconfigure the controller.  Plans are in place to undertake this work within the next three months and It is anticipated that the work may take up to 4 weeks to complete.  Amey have indicated they would like to thank residents for their patience whilst they  undertake this essential work.

There have been so many problems with these traffic lights the work needs to be done ASAP.

Who ever you vote for it is important you do.

ANOTHER DAY ANOTHER GRIT BIN PATROL IN OSCOTT

I was joined on one of my my regular grit bin patrols today by my ward Colueage Councillor Tristan Chatfield as we made sure there was grit in the bins and they were free of litter.

It is important to ensure there is grit in these bins because if there was a sudden burst of icy weather we would need to be prepared for it.

If you are aware of any grit bins in the Oscott area which have for any reason have little or no grit in them please leave me a message on 303 2039

I have again called in engineers to inspect and rectify these lights.
They need a complete overhaul

THE BEECHES GOLD CENTRE BEECHES ROAD A LITTLE GEM

As part of my council duties I have the privilege to be the section 33 visits (to Social service establishments) Perry Barr District champion.
In this role I carry out occasional visits and do a report of my observations.

One such visit I undertake is to the Beeches Gold Centre 174 Beeches Road Great Barr and while I will not divulge the contents of my report  I can say how well and active those who attend this centre appear.
Those who attend have multiple issues to face from dementia to learning difficulties. They all have smiles on their faces and get really involved in the many activities on offer at the centre.
 It is wonderful to meet them.

Some of these activities include at this centre include.

Sports, Football, bowling,snooker, badminton and more.
Games like dominoes and bingo are held.
There are visits to the cinema, day trips arranged and tea dances amongst other things,
Those who use the centre have the choice of which activities they do.
 There is a well stocked canteen where at little cost food and drink can be obtained
I nearly forgot Flower arranging, painting,sewing and so many other things are also carried out.

The Centres hard working, qualified,  caring staff help ensure the facility runs well and help ensure the users are cared for and help many of the users of the facility enjoy themselves.

For more details regarding the Beeches Gold Centre ring 464 3123

HELPING THE OSCOTT COMMUNITY GET RID OF THOSE LEAVES

If you email on Keith.Linnecor@birmingham.gov.uk I can give you more details.

Your Oscott ward Councillors will needless to say keep the pressure on to have our roads in Oscott cleared of leaves as often as possible in the normal way.

COUNCILLOR BARBARA DRING'S NEXT COUNCILLOR SURGERY.

Councillor Barbara Dring (Oscott) will be holding her next surgery tomorrow (Wed) at the 610 Community Centre.
The start time will be 7pm.
 Barbara Holds her surgeries on the first Wednesday of the month.

SANDY LANE / BOOTHS LANE HIDY HOLE CORNER CLEANED UP AND CLEARED.

A long last I have managed to get a Council department to cut back the tree and undergrowth at the corner of Booths Lane and Sandy Lane.
The work has nearly been completed, the trees and bushes have been well cut back and up lifted.
There is now much better visibility and those with anti social or criminal intent have no where to hide.
Younger children will now be able to play on the site more safely.
The site has also been cleaned up of drug material and litter.
The Police will be able to monitor the site easily when passing. Many thanks to all those involved in the clearance and clear up.

HELP LOOK AFTER THE QUESLETT NATURE RESERVE

Sadly however much residents care about our open spaces in Oscott there will always be those who do not.
The Friends of the Queslett Nature Reserve collectively and in many cases singly carry our small jobs ( recently some palisade fencing was repaired) on the reserve such as litter picking. All this helps make the site more welcoming and attractive as well as more desirable for wild life.

It is a shame however although it appears a sign of the times others carry out acts of petty vandalism on the site from cutting down trees , damaging fencing and yes allowing their dogs to foul the site without removing the dogs mess.( sometimes even leaving their dogs mess in bags tied to bushes!!)

The FQNR do what we can to improve the site new heavy litter bins have for example been requested and placed on the site but we would ask all to come along to the site enjoy the peace and quite, enjoy taking some exercise and importantly leave the wild life to also enjoy the site.

The FQNR also work with various agency,s the Police, the Local Landfill site officers and the Parks department in cooperation to help improve the reserve. 
We do however need more active volunteers to help look after the site.

For more details please email me Keith.Linnecor@birmingham.gov.uk

IMPROVED AND NEW CYCLING PATHS AND LANES ARE NEED IN THE OSCOTT AREA

As some one trying to improve and create more cycling routes in Oscott and the North Birmingham area I was pleased to support in the Birmingham City Council Planning Committee, improved cycling paths on the common land between Perry Common Road and Witton Lodge Road. The new paths being laid down on this well known piece of land I am sure will be well used by cyclist from across the area.
In Oscott I am still trying to promote improved cycling lanes and joint use paths. I have for example asked for the Kingstanding Road and Kings Road to be considered for improved cycling management.
Booths Lane ( the new development will result in improved cycle paths in the long term)  and it is hoped something may be done in the Queslett Nature reserve to help cyclists use it in the future.

DUE TO CUTS IN POLICE FUNDING PARKING WILL GET WORSE AROUND OSCOTT SCHOOLS.

Sadly due to the amount of funding cuts made to the West Midland Police Force budget by the Central Government it looks highly likely there will be a drastic reduction in Police activity in the Oscott Ward. I am sure those left will as ever do their best for Oscott but there will be a difference to be seen.

I am particularly concerned about the issues of parking around schools in Oscott. The Great Barr School, the Perry Beeches Schools and Cardinale wiseman already have serious parking issues as do the all the local primary schools.
The Police with their current staffing levels do try to get around to these schools to deal with parking problems I have no doubt when there are less officers there will be even more problems.

Although I fully understand how vicious the Governments cuts have been to the West Midlands Police Service (as they have been to the Birmingham City Council) I have requested the Police Commisioner look again at the situation. I am also calling on other concerned parties to see what further measures can be taken to help ease the problems.

TRAVELLERS ON SITE NEAR QUESLETT NATURE RESERVE.

Travellers ( 5 caravans) are currently occupying the old Concrete firm site on the Queslett Road next to the Queslett Nature Reserve. Residents and users of the reserve are concerned about this.

I have been in contact with the Police regarding this matter and also the Parks department who a dealing with the issues including informing the land owner.
 Gates have recently had new locks fitted and these will be checked regularly by the Parks department, members of the Friends of the Queslett Nature Reserve as well as concerned residents.
I would ask everyone to be vigilant.

There are times when Travellers go on a site for a sort time before  moving on without causing any issues we must hope this will be the case in this instance.

BOOTHS LANE WORKING PARTY MEETING AND UPDATE

I am currently trying to organise the next meeting of the Booths Lane development working party.
This is made up of the developer Taylor Wimpey ( a senior Director and his team), BCC  Planning Transport Engineers and Local Community Representatives. The date for the next meeting is due to be set for next month

The aim of the working party is try and iron out problems caused by the development on the Booths Lane site.
We have managed to help with issues like delivery details, the mud on the road and noise issues. We have also ensured walking access has been maintained from the Queslett Road side of the site to Sandy Lane.

However the big sticking point is as we all are aware the opening of the Booths Lane. I have been working closely with the Birmingham City Council who have been trying to sort out legal implications and progress has been made in that direction. However Taylor Wimpey are concerned about issues like the safety of road users and other health and safety concerns.
It must be remembered this development and the road within  it is PRIVATELY OWNED by Taylor Wimpy and although local residents representatives and myself may continually cajole them, they have the decision in their hands when to open up the road. Clearly this road needs to be re opened ASAP.

Taylor Wimpey have agreed to distribute an information leaflet regarding the up to date position on the development and road.

When the road is finished it will be handed to the BCC for adoption and it will become a part of the official road net work.

I would like to thank all those Community Representatives who have given their time to help the local community to try and resolve with Taylor Wimpey issues related to the Taylor Wimpey development. It is not an easy process.
 I also think there should be a big thank you to those who are effected by the current Booths Lane road closure for their patience in waiting for this matter to be sorted out.

If you have any concerns you wish me to pass on please email me. Keith.Linnecor@birmingham.gov.uk.Or leave a message on 303 2039
