Sheet Parish Council

Community Resilience

In conjunction with Hampshire County Council, Sheet Parish Council have developed a Community emergency plan

The plan can be seen here

Improvements to the junction of School Lane/Farnham Road

As residents will be aware, Sheet Parish Council has been working with Hampshire Highways for some time on much-needed improvements to pedestrian access at the junction of School Lane/Farnham Road.

Plans to create a “no left turn” for traffic emerging from School Lane onto Farnham Road, and “no right turn” for traffic into School Lane from Steep Marsh and extend the pavement down School Lane to a tactile pedestrian crossing point, thereby narrowing the entrance to School Lane, are progressing well.

It is hoped work will commence during the Easter School holiday.

The plan for these works can be seen here

Narrowing the junction at London Road/Village Street

Residents may recall the public meeting held to discuss a Community Funded Initiative to narrow access to Village Street. Plans to restrict access at the London Road junction are in the process of being drawn-up, but a sketch plan can be found here. It is hoped that this work will be able to go ahead in the next month or so.

Plans to narrow the entrance to Village Street at the Farnham Road junction have been postponed until the impact on traffic movement of the restrictions at School Lane/Farnham Road can be assessed by Hampshire Highways.

Council meetings

Sheet Parish Council meet on the second Tuesday of every month (except August). Usually meetings are held at the Village Hall but due to the Covid-19 pandemic and current Government restrictions the meetings are now being held remotely via Teams. Agendas are posted on the village noticeboards outside the village hall and in Pulens Lane, as well as on this website, and will give details of how you can join the meetings on-line. Our elected representatives from Hampshire County Council and East Hampshire District Council are present at most meetings. Members of the public are welcome to attend all meetings and one agenda item allows for brief 'public comment'.

The next full meeting of the Parish Council is on Tuesday 9th February 2021 at 7.30pm. The agenda for the meeting is available here.

Planning

Planning matters are normally considered in the full council meeting, but occasionally we hold an additional planning meeting which is advertised on noticeboards and the website as above.

Minutes of meetings

The minutes of Parish Council meetings and any additional Planning meetings are available on the Meeting Minutes page of this website. These are in draft form until formally approved.
