It’s easy to access the blog:

Minutes of the parish council meeting
December 21, 2008 by Mr BovThe village council will be using this blog to publish the minutes and agendas of the parish council meetings. This should make it easier for us to stay in touch with events and become more involved with our village. The minutes of the 8-12-2008 meeting are now available as a downloadable PDF (download a free reader from the Adobe website if you don’t already have it).
Proposal for more houses in Lackford
November 20, 2008 by Mr BovAs some of you may be aware, St Edmundsbury are considering their future development plans and have issued “Core Strategy Preferred Options (view online or PDF)” and “Strategic Sites (view online or PDF)” documents on their website at http://stedsbc-consult.limehouse.co.uk/portal. The relevant map of Lackford with the proposed sites is below.
SS51 is proposed for residential use, although the council comments that it is within a Special Landscape Area and that protected and notable species have been identified at this location. SS54 is for mixed use and again is within a Special Landscape Area.
I’m sure this will get discussed in the upcoming parish meetings, but in the meantime here is a little poll to see what the general feeling is.
Lackford Fireworks 2008
October 23, 2008 by trevorperriorOnce again Lackford will be hosting a “bring a firework” party on Saturday 8th November. The Gough family has been kind enough to allow us to use part of their land to the right of Lackford Lane. This is not the triangular field that we have used in the past, but an adjacent piece of land. Fireworks and bonfire will be lit at 18:00 onwards. Please note that this is a “private party” open to everyone in the village, and their family and friends. It is not open to the public at large.
You can help in several ways:
· Donation of one or two large aerial fireworks by 7th Nov to 10 Old Bury Road
· Preparing some food or drink to share – please contact Francesca Ober
· Making a donation towards the cost of organising the event, on the night
· Collecting fuel and building the bonfire on Nov 8th. Bonfire building will start at 10:00 (if you can help please meet at the Old Bury Road bus stop)
If anyone has material for the bonfire that they would like collected, drop me an email at fireworks@lackford.com.

Vandalism in Lackford
October 22, 2008 by Mr BovDear Friends
I had a call this afternoon from the owner of the set-aside field. His tractor, parked by the pill-box has been vandalised by cutting the leads on the starter motor. He suspects this may be a reaction to the realigning of the fence at the bottom of the field as several of the posts have been removed and thrown into bushes. He wants to make it clear that he has no intention of withdrawing the permissive path round the field, and I have offered to cut a new path so that there should be no interruption of our enjoyment of this privilege. I cannot believe there is anyone in Lackford who would do such a silly act of vandalism, and suspect it is probably youngsters from outside the village. It would be such a shame if we lost the permission to walk round the setaside through someone else’s bad behaviour. Please keep a watchful eye (and ear) to help prevent further vandalism. If anyone has information about this incident, please tell Mr Aitkens or the police.
Kind regards
Colin Smith
