"Hard standing"

The PC's plan is to potentially site a skate board facility on the old tennis courts in the Rec. But there have been concerns raised about loss of the hard standing for casual football players.

One solution is that we leave the hard standing where it is and build the skate board track somewhere else on the rec. There is a theory that because a parish meeting in the 1990s voted for 'no more hard standing' in the rec that is binding for all time. It's not something I personally agree with and especially if it is limiting our ability to create new facilities for young people in the village. So I suspect this will be coming back to PC for another 'full and frank' discussion and as ever villagers are welcome to attend and within the prescribed time period have their say.
