Kids needs places to play!
Blue topped campaign leaflets would have people believe that nothing is being done in respect of the balance between housing growth in Little Paxton. However, nothing could be further from the truth. A number of meetings have been happening between Cllr Churchill and developers to ensure that the play areas and the community centre are progressing
The Little Paxton plans were drawn up and approved before 2005 but were approved with facilities being locked into place only after a certain level of owner occupancy. Ken believes that play facilities need to be in place when the first occupant takes up residency as children on these new developments need safe areas to play.
Ken explains. "New developments are usually completed and occupied prior to the installation of infrastructure. Personally I believe the infrastructure should be put into place along with the creation of the development. Then people would have the facilities they require as they move into an area. Residents with children need the play facilities in place from day one!"

"The Little Paxton development grew without the necessary play areas being put into place as occupancy commenced and children came to live in the village which is such a shame, especially as it's a long way through to the village play park. This is I believe, very short sighted but sadly not uncommon. The matters of community hub and play areas remain under discussion."
