Rosebery School Planning Application refused

The Planning Committee has refused the application from Rosebery School to build 72 houses and flats on part of their playing fields. The school had claimed it was necessary to fund improved sports facilities. No planning objection was raised to the proposed new sports hall, tennis court or all-weather pitch, after the school dropped plans to floodlight the pitch and hire out their facilities in the evenings and at weekends. The concerns were entirely with the loss of part of the playing fields and the effects of the new housing in Rosebank.

RA Party finally declares support for Fair Trade

In an attempt to get "Fair Trade Town" status for Epsom & Ewell, Cllr Jonathan Lees originally presented a motion to the Borough Council in February 2004. At that stage, the ruling Residents Association group limited the council's response to asking the Business Partnership to draw the attention of the business community to the Fair Trade initiative. As a result Cllr Lees helped to set up the Fairtrade Forum which has worked to increase public awareness of Fair Trade issues independently of the Council.

Janet Maines, Lib Dem group leader said: "This Tory-run County Council has got to move away from crisis management, with its ever spiralling costs, by investing in preventative measures that are good value for money and that better meet the needs of Surrey residents".
