Residents will shortly receive a letter from Warwick District Council asking for their opinions on a proposal to remove the ward boundary between the Burton Green ward (7 Councillors) and the University Ward (4 Councillors) and for the Parish Council to become one single electoral area with eleven Councillors. With this re-arrangement, all 11 elected Councillors would work for the whole Parish electoral area, and not within their ward area.
The District Council wants to know what residents within the Parish think about this proposed re-arrangement and invites residents to send their views in writing to Gillian Friar, Electoral Services Manager, Warwick District Council, Riverside House, Milverton Hill, Royal Leamington Spa, Warwickshire CV32 5HZ or by email to [email protected]. The deadline for sending views and responses for consideration in this first stage is noon Thursday 6 October 2022. If you have any questions for the Parish Council about the proposal please feel free to contact the Clerk. For more details about the Community Governance Review process please visit the Warwick District Council website here. Key messages for residents:
Responses to help with current concerns:
Ahead of the new 123+ recycling and refuse collection service starting next week on Monday 1 August, Warwick District Council is providing residents with an update on food caddy and bin deliveries.
Deliveries of the food caddies and blue-lidded recycling bins are ongoing, however due to several factors, delivery is currently behind schedule. Priority is being given to the delivery of food caddies and the Council are working hard to deliver all of these by 1 August. Priority is also being given to the delivery of recycling bins for those properties that have a recycling collection next week. Residents who have not yet received their bins, just need to report this to us once by emailing [email protected]. All waste will still be collected even if the new bins have not arrived. If you haven’t received an information book or calendar – you can view collection dates and the schedule on the Council website; enter your postcode, find your address then select the ‘waste collections’ tab and scroll down to see the dates and schedule from 1 August. You can also download the Council’s app on the App Store or Google Play, and collection dates will be in there from 1 August. If you haven’t received your food caddy – food waste can be put into the garden waste bin temporarily if you’ve subscribed to the collection of them from 1 August. Otherwise, food waste can be placed in the grey bin until the food caddy arrives. If you haven’t received your recycling bin – priority is being given to those properties that have a recycling collection next week. If you haven’t received it by the time of your collection continue to use your red boxes to present the recycling. There is no need to sort it, just put it all in your red boxes for it to be collected. If you have your blue-lidded bin but have extra recycling, then you can use your red boxes to put out the extra next to your bin. The bridge will be closed 24 hours a day during this period for gas and sewer diversion works. A diversion will be in place throughout the closures and access to all properties will be maintained.

Taking place every day over the course of the Commonwealth Games from Thursday 28 July 2022 – Monday 8 August 2022, there will be two festival sites in Warwick District: one in the Pump Room Gardens in Royal Leamington Spa and another in Market Square in Warwick where you can visit any time between 10am to 10pm and enjoy live streaming of the Games on the big screen, a picnic with friends or just soak up the atmosphere.
Both are completely free to attend and provide the opportunity to catch not just the sporting action from across the West Midlands, but also a selection of locally made films and aminations from local creatives as part of Warwick District’s CultureFest.
