184/14 Report by County Councillor Ken Thornber
Cllr Thornber gave a presentation to the meeting on the following items, summarised under their
appropriate headings:Latchmoor Railway Bridge Works – Advised he had urged Net Work Rail to complete by the end of
May Bank Holiday, reduction of two weeks in schedule. No firm guarantees received but signs were
hopeful and would keep the Parish Council informed.
Sway Road Railway Bridge Brockenhurst – Had been informed due to close for six weeks from a yet
unspecified date in June – had requested the work carried out whilst Latchmoor Bridge still closed to
avoid extension of the road diversions.
CANGO Bus Service – Confirmed his commitment to this vital community service, reminding
meeting had saved the Lymington / Sway service six years previously. Explained the background to
the survey of the Sway passengers and its subsequent report and recommendation to change to a
fixed route service by Kevin Ings (HCC Community & Social Care Manager) lay with the requirement
to reduce the number of “backroom” staff currently employed to run the roaming service. Cllr
Thornber advised of his meeting with Sway Transport Representative, John Warden and Kevin Ings,
to address John Warden’s concerns that there was a hidden agenda behind this. Cllr Thornber
suggested perhaps some of the concerned individuals might like to attend the HCC Council Meeting
on 22nd May where a presentation could be made for up to ten minutes and a delegation could
present a petition to Sean Woodward, Executive Member covering Transport. Cllr Thornber then
advised that he was looking into the possibility of the HCC Village Agent, also acting as a booking
agent for CANGO and that he genuinely did not believe the intention was to take the service away,
but overheads needed to be reduced to guarantee sustainability and wanted to see the service
maintained within the core services.
The Chair thanked Cllr Thornber for his report and asked if HCC would like a bus full of attendees
from Sway to attend on the 22nd May. Then asked if Cllrs had any questions for Cllr Thornber.
Cllr Tarling thanked Cllr Thornber for his report and for being a staunch supporter of Sway CANGO.
However pointed out suspicions had been raised as the report had not actually reached Sway
Parish Council until seven days earlier, and the survey was pathetic, lacked validity, was biased and
incomplete and appeared to have contacted the bare minimum of users. Cllr Tarling advised that to
abandon the flexible route would inconvenience a few now, but have a bigger impact in the future.
The Chair agreed adding that Sway was acknowledged to have an ever increasing elderly
population and asked if there were any further questions. The Transport Representative, John
Warden advised Cllr Tarling had summarised most of the concerns, but wished to present a few
thoughts and if Cllr Thornber would give his support, Mr Warden would give Cllr Thornber a copy of
his questions.
Cllr Thornber responded through the Chair that he looked forward to receiving the questions and
would put to the HCC officers concerned, remarking that with the press present and as he was also
being recorded, he needed to be careful that the facts were true, but would take up with the
Executive Member and the Service Officer
Cllr Dance raised the question of the disparity between the two counties experienced during the
school holidays and was it not possible for Hampshire and Dorset to liaise to get them in line.
Cllr Thornber replied through the Chair, reminding Council that HCC had to consult with all five of
the counties bordering them, but would raise with the Executive Member concerned.

Agister at the allotments on Tuesday 28th April, to discuss the recent problems of stock
getting stuck in the fencing. Both the Clerk and Allotment representatives found it a most
productive meeting, receiving a great deal of excellent advice from both the FC Supervisor
Graham Wilson and the Head Agister, Jonathan Gerrelli, on the type and positioning of
replacement fencing along with recommendations of three agricultural fencing contractors to
approach for the work. Grateful thanks to both of them for the time and effort spent with us.

The payment schedule was circulated to Council Members. The Chair advised that in future the

ii.
Receive report from Finance Working Group re 2014/15 Budget Actuals
Cllr Cripps advised the FWG had met on the 28th April to review the budget analysis documents
circulated to Cllrs. Advising there was not much difference to the outlook as presented in
January, the lower than expected expenditure due to maintenance projects not completed in the
previous financial year due to the weather, but would need to be carried forward to 2015/16.
Cllr Cripps advised was pleased to report that the Council had managed to balance the books
this year, where previously costs had been eating into the Council’s reserves. He thanked the
Clerk for her work in producing a more professional reporting structure and also the careful
controls put in place to manage the budget. Cllr Cripps also thanked all the four sports clubs
represented by the Jubilee Fields User Group for stepping up to the plate and assisting the
Parish Council by taking on and managing much of their maintenance costs themselves.
Cllr Cripps then warned that although an improvement had been achieved, the finances were not
out of the woods yet – reserves were still far too low and needed to be built back up, there was
not sufficient to cover a major bill, for example a serious problem with the tractor necessitating a
new one without a trade in value to help.
Cllr Cripps than advised that the Clerk’s six month probationary period had been completed and
he would like to propose her appointment be formally confirmed. This was seconded by Cllr
Tarling and the subsequent vote was unanimous in favour.
Cllr Cripps thanked the Clerk for all her work in developing the role, particularly as she had had to
build the Finance spreadsheets from scratch.
Cllr Cripps finished by advising that he had just handed over all the bits of the vandalised bus
shelter to be reinstated. Cllr Tarling asked if the Council’s insurance would cover the costs of
repair and was advised by the Chair would probably not be expensive enough to make a claim.
187/14

188/14 Receive Feedback from Cllr Dance on Hampshire Police Travellers Presentation.
Cllr Dance gave a brief report on the presentation made by Inspector Rachel Stokes he had
attended on the Council’s behalf. Referring to the presentation documents circulated to Councillors
earlier, he advised the key points were:- Important to make sure premises were secure; that
trespass was a civil offence and Police were unable to take action over it alone; planning issues had
occurred in Fordingbridge after Travellers had purchased land and set up camp there, and finally:
Travellers now knew the appropriate laws inside out, so be careful when dealing with them. Cllr
Fleat observed was it now appropriate just to say “welcome”. Cllr Dance replied Police could take
action once law had been broken – anti social behaviour, criminal damage, etc. Cllr Golby observed
that site security needed to be stepped up as discussed in Amenities Working Group and the barrier
locked at night.as prevention was better than cure.

i.
Receive report re meeting with NFNPA Senior Tree Officer

representatives of the Parish Council to establish whether Sway could offer any suitable sites for the
project. Explaining that it was decided that Jubilee Field presented the only real option, the Clerk
reported that the NFNPA Officer had toured the site with the representatives and was very
encouraging as too its suitability, not only offering sites for planting but also excellent access to host
the event which was planned to coincide with National Tree week in the Autumn. The Officer had
advised there were other sites under consideration, however before making a final decision the
Council needed to make a formal offer of Jubilee Field as a site to the NFNPA.
ii.
To agree to offer Jubilee Field as a suitable site for the project.
The Chair reminded Cllrs that in the process of developing the Jubilee Field site, it had been sadly
necessary to remove a number of very nice trees and this would be an excellent opportunity to put
some back. He also reported there were some issues in the summer due to lack of shade. The
suggestion was for planting in the central area between the football and cricket pitches and at the
Birch Hill end of the field. Finally the Chair advised it had every hope of success would involve
everyone, older and younger residents alike and could be a real celebration of the community.
Cllr Tarling observed it was a splendid project and proposed formally offering the NFNPA the Jubilee
Field site. This was seconded by Cllr Golby, subsequent vote was unanimous in favour.
Action Clerk to write to NFNPA offering Jubilee Field for consideration as a site for the
project.
190/14 Grant Applications
An application for a grant had been received and circulated to Cllrs from the SCARF organisation.
Cllr Cripps observed that they didn’t answer the Clerk’s question as to whether help had been given
to any family from Sway, but it was a worthwhile cause and would support a grant award. It was
observed that it might be difficult to provide information due to child protection issues. Cllr Fleat
(seconded Cllr Gates) proposed an award of £100.00, the subsequent vote was unanimous in
favour.
191/14 Any Other Business
Cllr Golby advised that as the Chair of Trustees of SWAG and requesting that the press be
respectful of what he was about to say, stated he would not happily let Sway loose it’s flexible
CANGO route and if necessary would investigate if SWAG together with other organisations in the
village could provide an alternative booking service.
Cllr Dance advised of some road sign issues for the lengthsman, Clerk advised would be addressed
once funding released.
Cllr Tarling drew Cllrs attention to the draft letter to HCC re CANGO, and it was unanimously agreed
it should be sent.
Action Clerk to send letter to Kevin Ings.
The Chair, whilst wishing all those elected to the Council on the 7th May, good luck for the future,
observed that the Council was about to lose two of its longest serving members, who were not
standing for re-election, Cllr Carole Gates who had served in a number of roles including as a
previous Chair and Cllr Kevin Langford; they had chalked up 28 and 26 years respectively, thanking
them for their contributions, he remarked they were true villagers, a photograph taken at a tree
planting in 1989 with them both on it proved this. Wishing them both a happy retirement, the Chair
then presented them each with hand crafted wooden bowls, the work of local craftsman, Graham
Turner. Both were given an appreciative round of applause by their fellow Cllrs and members of the
public.
Cllr Gates thanked the Chair and stated she had felt privileged to serve Sway for so many years and
also thanked past Cllrs and Clerks for their dedication and how proud she was with all that had been
achieved.
Cllr Langford thanked the Cllrs for his totally unexpected gift and stated that he would still be around
and to remember to be good representatives of Sway.

would continue to be monitored.

Marlpit Oak Railway Bridge – Councillor Thornber commented on the history of the problems with
Network Rail in relation to the repairs to the bridge and the resulting impact on local communities.
An agreement was now in place that the B3055 would remain open until early October 2014.
Network Rail had agreed to look at options as to whether the road could be kept partially open when
the work resumes. In the meantime, the County Council would proceed with the repairs to the cattle
grid at Cobblers Corner.
Highways – Everyone was aware of the tremendous battering that the roads network had taken
over the winter and that in some areas, things were only just getting back to normal. Councillor
Thornber pointed out that the County Council would need to spend an additional £68m to repairs the
roads. He went on to highlight issues relating to a number of roads in the Sway area which were
currently being addressed by the County Council.

extend the contract for the CANGO service for a further 4 years until 2018. He thanked John
Warden for all his hard work in promoting this service

he had given to Sway over the past few years and he stressed that, in the coming year, he would be
directing his efforts towards St Luke’s School and the Sway Youth Centre.
