Decision details

The NP considered a report which set out the latest position in relation to the neighbourhood partnership plan.

The following key issues were noted during the discussion that took place:

·       Activity 6: Bryant’s Hill Crossing – the public consultation on the pedestrian refuge island near The Trooper public house was now on BCC website.

·       The NP Plan in its current form would be passed on to ‘St George Community Network’ organisation to use and further develop as they see fit, along with other useful information currently held by St George NP.

The NP RESOLVED that the update be noted.

Any Other Business

•          Lord Mayor’s Medals 2017 - Congratulations were extended to St George residents and NP Members Susan Acton-Campbell and Bruce Yates who were honoured with the award of Lord Mayor’s Medals at a ceremony at the Mansion House.  Trevor Ball who is a long term member of Friends of St George Park and has recently been a member and active supporter of St George in Bloom also received the award as had Gillian Flower for her work setting up the Bristol Community Friendship Club.  These prestigious medals are awarded each year by the Lord Mayor of Bristol to recognise those who go that extra mile to make a difference to local communities in Bristol.

•          Congratulations were also extended to Cllr Asher Craig who had recently been promoted from Cabinet Member to Deputy Mayor.

•          Thanks and a round of applause were given to Abdulrazak Dahir (NP Co-ordinator) and Ruth Quantock (Democratic Services Officer) for their service to St George NP over the many years since its inception in 2008/09.
