HOVETON PARISH COUNCIL Stalham Road Speed Limit Hoveton Parish Council has been contacted by a number of local residents who would like to request a reduction in the speed limit for part of the A1151 Stalham Road. At present, once Stalham Road’s 30mph zone ends shortly after the Brook Park roundabout, the speed limit as vehicles travel in the direction of Stalham is 40mph until drivers reach the national speed limit sign. However, many Stalham Road residents have expressed the view that they would prefer to see the 40mph zone abolished and the village’s 30mph zone extended to the national speed limit sign.
Bearing in mind that the 40mph zone is located in a residential area of our village, Hoveton Parish Council supports residents’ requests for a reduction to the speed limit in this location. All requests for speed limit changes must be put in writing to Norfolk County Council and all written objections received will be noted in a report to the cabinet member responsible for planning and transport. Residents may contact the County Council directly (Legal Officer, Chief Executive’s Office, County Hall, Martineau Lane, Norwich, NR1 2DH) about this matter, though your Parish Council believes a coordinated approach from local residents and the Parish Council itself will have the most impact and will hopefully result in action being taken.
Therefore, if you would like to see the speed limit on this part of Stalham Road reduced, please consider writing a letter to Norfolk County Council to request a speed limit change and then forwarding this letter to Hoveton Parish Council by 31st
October (letters to be
sent to Cllr Alex Howe at
ahowe@hoveton-pc.org.uk or 2 Littlewood Lane, Hoveton, NR12 8DZ). Hoveton Parish Council will then collate all letters received and submit these letters to Norfolk County Council as part of a larger submission package from the Parish Council and the village as a whole.
A Successful Audit Hoveton Parish Council recently received confirmation of the completion of the Council’s external audit for 2018-2019. No concerns were raised in the external auditor’s report, resulting in another successful audit with a clean bill of health for your Parish Council. At Hoveton Parish Council’s September meeting, the Parish Clerk/RFO was thanked for her hard work in ensuring a successful audit, which represents both a good result (which not all Parish Councils achieve) and a financial saving for the Council as no further audit costs were incurred. Hoveton Parish Council has now published its ‘Notice of Conclusion of Audit’ alongside its audited Annual Governance and Accountability Return, and these documents are available on our website (
www.hoveton-pc.org.uk) or may be requested from Lisa, the Parish Clerk (07572 349600 or
clerk@hoveton-pc.org.uk).
