Cllr Alf Dewis, Oakham Deputy Mayor, Inept Rutland County Council Plan, Aldi



Cllr Dewis writes to the local paper as one of the town council
biggest inept bullies.

Writing he describes Rutland County Councils plan for Oakham
as inept.

When Rutland County Council consulted with the public and
all parish councils. The parish councillor of Oakham could not
be bothered to comment on the document. The council decided
it would let individual members comment away from the meeting.

A senior local Conservative surprised me this week by saying
"We have Aldi coming to Oakham no thank's to the town council
that once again lets us down"

They then referred to the Town Council's failure to produce
a local plan.

I once pointed out the lack of the local plan to Cllr Alf Dewis
I mentioned the apparent success of Uppingham, he responded
they will regret it. He could not say why.

Hawksmead Ltd
Land west of Lands End Way, Oakham

New retail unit (Class A1) with
associated vehicular & pedestrian
access, car parking, landscaping &
servicing.

Recommendation  REFUSAL

for the following reasons;

1. The application site is part of a larger area of land allocated and safeguarded for 

employment-related development (Use classes B1, B2 and B8 of the Town and Country 

Planning (Use Classes) Order,1987 (as amended)) in Policy CS13(d) of the Adopted 

Core Strategy (July 2011) and EM2/1 of the Adopted Rutland Local Plan (July 2001). It 

is also in a prime location by the Oakham Bypass (A606: Burley Park Way), adjacent to 

the main highway access into the allocated area. The proposed use for retail 

development (Use Class A1) would detrimentally reduce both the quantity and quality of 

employment land supply within Rutland. The loss of part of this strategic site, especially 

in such a prime location, would inhibit the development of the wider employment site for 

future economic development and job creation within the area allocated for such 

development within Policies EM2/1 and CS13(d). Given this, the current application is 

contrary to saved Policies EM2 and EM11 of the Rutland Local Plan (2001) and Policies 

CS2(h) and CS13(d) of the Adopted Core Strategy (July 2011).

2. The proposal would have an impact upon linked trips to Oakham Town Centre, and as 

such would be required to make contributions towards a County Council led planned 

programme of investment in the town centre to mitigate the agreed impact of the 

development on the town centre. These developer contributions have not been finalised 

through a Section 106 agreement, and the proposal is thereby contrary to policy CS2, 

CS8, CS17, and CS18 of the adopted Rutland Core Strategy and the guidance in the 

adopted Supplementary

Aldi, Oakham Town Council Approves, Application Possibly Described By Town Clerk as a Pile of Shit.

Aldi, Oakham Town Council Approves, Application Possibly Described By Town Clerk as a Pile of Shit.

I sat at tonight's council meeting listening hard as I always do. I was suprised to hear the Clerk whilst
pointing to a pile of Aldi documents describe them as a pile of shit. I thought no I did not hear that? there
was a pause as he attempted to find another word to describe the large pile of papers and he turned
to the Mayor and said Oh dear I nearly said something I should n't and turned red.

Cllrs did not refer to the documents or plans and approved the application.

Conservative Councillor Stan Stubbs felt something should be said and said there is a lot of public support for this application and the Town Council should write to Rutland County Council and tell them to note the
public support for the application.

As for the Clerks slip of the tounge, its alway good to hear his input at planning meetings :-)

 or Aldi, Asda, Booths, Budgens, Costco, Costcutter, Farm Foods, Heron Foods, Iceland, Lidl, Morrisons, Netto or a Tesco Local and petrol station!

Its amazing how close it came to Rutland not having any 6th form education last year.

A prime example of how contracting out services does not always work. Good bye Tresham, parents and students were promised a new building now it looks as if they will only get a old shoddy building up the road at Barleythorpe.

 

Parts of the college smells, this part does not look that old

Waitrose, Sainsbury, Aldi or Lidl Oakham?

We are told Waitrose are considering moving into Oakham, they would like to build a new store on the Rutland College site, only if Rutland County Council refuses permission for the proposed Sainsbury store at Hawksmead.

I say sod of Waitrose and lets have an affordable store like Lidl or Aldi.

The college site would be perfect for this type of store.

Another site close by is the Parks School or Rutland County Council could move Jules to the Parks School site and provide a much better youth services.

If you would like to register your interest in either Aldi or Lidl opening in Oakham then please let them know.

Aldi are looking for a site in Oakham and ask you to

Before anyone says these store are to low class for Oakham you must take a trip to Stamford Lidl and see how many woman 4x4 drivers can be seen filling their green reusable canvas Tesco and Waitrose bags at this store.
