 ​PLAY AREA QUESTIONNAIRE
Pucklechurch Parish Council is seeking the views of all its residents.  Your views and those of your children are needed to help shape future play area provision for children up to primary school age.
 
Please take a few minutes to complete the questionnaire, or provide photos of fun ideas from other play areas or get your children to send us drawings of what they want to: parish.council@pucklechurch.org by 23rd April 2021

Please note: inclusion of any play equipment listed below does not mean that Pucklechurch Parish Council will provide it.
Thank you
​
To access questionnaire click below.
Questionnaire

All responses to the questionnaire are anonymous and all data will be kept on password protected parish council equipment. 
Only residents expressing an interest in contributing to interviews or focus groups will be contacted.
The data will be used to inform the council’s play area strategy and will contribute to the specifications for new equipment at the Eagle Crescent play area which is available through S106 contributions.
 
For those who prefer, you may print off the Word version of the questionnaire below and return it to the clerk and for those without access to a computer, it is hoped a small number of hard copies will be available in the Post Office.  
​
Further information is available from the Clerk email: parish.council@pucklechurch.org or 07525 842095
SOUTH GLOUCESTERSHIRE COUNCIL CALL FOR SITES

Local Plan call for sites (March 2021 update)
 
One of the key aims of the Local Plan will be to allocate sites for the new homes, jobs, infrastructure, services and facilities that will be needed in South Gloucestershire. The purpose of the ‘call for sites’  was to provide an opportunity for people to identify sites they think may have the potential for development (for housing and economic purposes) through the Local Plan.  
 
The first thing to remember is that at this stage just because a landowner/developer has identified and submitted a piece of land to be investigated as a possible location for new development that this means it will actually be developed . In fact SGC is very clear that inclusion on the map it has  produced to show what has been suggested  DOES NOT infer that it supports any of these sites for allocation in its new Local Plan, or development through a planning application.  Submitted sites will be subject to detailed assessment and future consultation. 
 
This is a lengthy process that has to take into account many many factors, not least of which the fact that virtually all of the land identified in and around Pucklechurch parish is currently designated as Green Belt. It is entirely possible over the coming weeks and months that residents may see various speculative designs for development being published online by landowners/developers for parcels of land they have submitted for inclusion - these should not be a cause for anyone to panic as no matter how professional these may look  as at this stage these will be purely speculative. 
 
Please be aware Parish Council is fully engaged with the consultation process surrounding the development of the new Local Plan. SGC has also published FAQs for those that want to know more and guidance on how to make comments. https://beta.southglos.gov.uk/new-local-plan/
​
With two vacant positions for parish councillors, this is your opportunity to get involved in local democracy and influence things that happen in your parish.  Please contact the clerk or speak to an existing councillor for further information.

Accessibility statement
The Public Sector Bodies (Websites and Mobile Applications) (No. 2) Accessibility Regulations 2018 (the ‘accessibility regulations’) requires the parish council to have an accessible and complaint website.  Pucklechurch parish council is aware that this website is not fully compliant with the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.1 AA standard and is working with Vision ICT to develop a new and compliant website.
 
In the meantime, the parish council is aware that non-compliance or full accessibility may prevent people from being able to fully use this website to, for example:
  • change colours, contrast levels and fonts
  • zoom in up to 300% without the text spilling off the screen
  • navigate most of the website using just a keyboard
  • navigate most of the website using speech recognition software
  • listen to most of the website using a screen reader (including the most recent versions of JAWS, NVDA and VoiceOver)
  • reflow text in a single column
  • modify the line height or spacing of text
  • skip to the main content when using a screen reader
 
Until the new site is live, if you cannot access parts of this website and need information in a different format, such as accessible PDF, large print, easy read, or audio recording, please email the clerk and the council will consider your request and get back to you in 5 days. Thank you
