Questions from Members of the Public and Council In accordance with Rule No. 3.3.2 the following question has been submitted to the Council from a member of the public, Mathew Skinner:
“Why is it that not all trees and open spaces in Beacon Ward matter to Newark & Sherwood District Council?
Land East of Newark – known locally as the area around ‘Clay Lane’ continues to be included and allocated for housing development with no justification. As local residents, we feel that this area is not suitable for development due to unsuitability of the designated access roads and the enormous negative impact it would have environmentally. And at a time when we see large amounts of housing being delivered in other areas of the town, we see no reason why this area continues to be included in the Council’s Allocations and Development Management DPD.
In recent weeks a significant number of trees on Sherwood Avenue Play Park have been removed without the prior consent of the landowner (Newark Town Council controlled by Independents for Newark) by Newark and Sherwood District Council after being appointed as the contractor for the park redevelopments. The site is within the conservation area for Newark. Why was it decided that its ok for these trees to be removed?”

Notices of Motion In accordance with Rule No. 3.4.3, Councillor P. Taylor will move and Councillor L. Brazier will second a motion to the following effect:
“Newark and Sherwood District Council has serious concerns about the provision of NHS services in Newark. NHS staff are doing an amazing job in the most challenging of circumstances.
The recent NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board consultation about the opening hours of the Urgent Treatment Centre has revealed itself to be a fait accompli, with no option to provide 24-hour cover. This was a question of resources, not need.
Newark Hospital has been under resourced for too many years, leading to the loss of its Accident and Emergency service in the summer of 2010. Newark and Sherwood District Council supports the vision of NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board, which is;
Our neighbourhoods, places and system will seamlessly integrate to provide joined up care. Every citizen will enjoy their best possible health and wellbeing.
Newark and Sherwood District Council will engage with the NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board to work towards a consistency of care across Nottinghamshire and will support the NHS Nottingham and Nottinghamshire Integrated Care Board to lobby Government for more resources so that Newark Hospital can increase its services for the people living right across our district”.
