Report for AGM                                                                                 17 July 2019

 

Activities of the ORA during 2018-19 have included:

 

Opposition to Aldi’s proposals for new  store on Old Horns Crescent

 

Preservation of green spaces and woodland in Oscott

 

Liaison with with developers Taylor Wimpey and council officers, regarding the new estate in Booths Lane , work in progress, issues and problems and completion and re-opening of Booths Lane.

 

Parking and speeding issues including schools

Graffiti and street cleaning

Road, traffic, parking and other transportation issues:

 

Dangerous parking outside schools continues to be a major nuisance although local councillors have continued to bring this to the attention of the schools and police. We now have a representative on the schools parking committee held regularly at Great Barr School.

 

Dangerous parking at the junction of Booths Lane and Queslett Road.

Opposition to proposals for a new Aldi store on Old Horns Crescent:

 Aldi were refused planning consent unanimously  by Birmingham City Council planning commitee in February 2017 but submitted an appeal to the Planning Inspectorate. We spoke at the hearing on May 1^st and 2^nd. 2018. We were well pleased that the decision by the inspectorate was to uphold the decision to refuse planning consent as documented in their report later in May 2018.

 Taylor Wimpey

 The development is nearing completion on target for 2019 with most of the houses inhabited or completed. We have a meeting planned during the next two weeks for latest updates.

 We have been pleased to work with other organisations including Friends of Queslett Nature Reserve, Neighbourhood Police Initiative (NPI) and PCSO’s and Oscott Elderly Residents Group.

In addition, we receive regular police bulletins  and alerts from West Midland Now.

 We are grateful for the excellent support and guidance from Ward Support Officer, Ken Brown, Oscott councillors Keith Linnecor, Barbara Dring from Khalid Mahmood M.P.
