Subject: Items for RFF from Council
Morning John
A couple of matters were referred to RFF by Council last week.
The first was EV charging points and I attach the minute for items 1 and 6 on the correspondence:
Items 1 and 6 – Councillor Hockley said he thought SCC were browbeating communities throughout Suffolk in
respect of placing EV charging points. Following a visit from a Babergh DC team to the Elm Estate last year,
the views of residents regarding BDC changed remarkably for the better. SCC are telling us not asking us but
are now grudgingly asking where we want the charging points. This was referred to the Road, Footpaths and
Flatford Committee to make suggestions.
The second was from the open public session and the discussion on Woodgates Road:
Marion Goodwin from Woodgates Road, referred to the problem of vision for drivers wishing to access the
road when it was not possible to see round the corner and with increasing traffic it was becoming dangerous.
The Chair said she understood the problem but there was no solution which could be suggested tonight and it
rested on how best to approach SCC. This matter was referred to the Roads, Footpaths and Flatford
Committee for further consideration.
Kind regards
Graham
