The outcome of the well-attended public meeting at the end of January was a clear mandate to the Parish Council and Parish Plan Steering Group to concentrate on our collective response to the Climate and Environment Emergency.
We have given some thought how best to do this and worked out a way forward that gives each of the various groups in the parish a clear focus.
The Parish Council as a whole will concentrate on its regular responsibilities and take the lead Lobbying - making sure the parish's voice is heard by higher layers of government. In addition, our Environment Advisory Group will take the lead on Biodiversity and our Highways Advisory Group will focus on Emergency Planning.
The Parish Plan Steering Group will continue to function as the Resilient Rattery Group and will continue to hold the Parish Council to account, be a forum for debate, coordinate collective action and take the lead on providing useful Advice and Information. To start with the focus will be on Energy, Re-cycling and Transport.
So, depending on your interests, there are opportunities for you to join in. Meetings and activities will be announced on the Email Exchange and Website.
In March we are hoping to send out more information to every household together with a simple questionnaire to collect your views and ideas.
