Escrick Parish Council update September 2020

Covid 19: 

At September’s meeting the Parish Council reviewed arrangements, and agreed to keep these unaltered. The Council will continue to meet via video calls, and the playground will remain open with restrictions and an enhanced cleaning regime.  Plans may change as the pandemic evolves and residents are encouraged to check the Council’s website for updates.

Highways: 

Skipwith Road speeding:  The Council has submitted a request to the ’95 alive’ road safety partnership requesting that they review the speeding issues on Skipwith Road. After some delay they have acknowledged the request, but are not in a position to progress at the moment due to staff shortages.

The vehicle activated sign is currently out of action, due to an electrical fault. It is due to be repaired during September under warranty.

Planning:

The application for clay extraction west of the A19 / business park was approved by North Yorkshire County Council in late July.

The application for a leisure/caravan park on the former North Selby Mine site was approved by City of York Council in August.

The application for increased in-fill at the former brickworks quarry west of the business park was approved by North Yorkshire County Council in early September.

The application for a waste sorting site at the former Stillingfleet mine site has not yet be heard by committee.

Maintenance:

The bus shelter woodwork is due to be repainted during September.

An order has been placed for an electrical supply to the fountain area, to allow the monument to be illuminated in due course.

COVID-19 Selby District Council Update 17th Sept 2020

published on 17th Sep 2020

Important

This notice was last updated on 17th Sep 2020.

Update from Selby District Council - Thursday 17th September 2020:

To update you on the situation with Covid-19 in Selby district, as our area continues to record higher numbers of cases compared to other parts of North Yorkshire.

The Local Resilience Forum has declared a major incident, given the rise in case numbers.  Of particular concern in North Yorkshire are the Selby and Scarborough districts.

In our district, there are particular concerns about community transmission in the Sherburn-in-Elmet area.  We are also seeing increases amongst care home residents and staff.

This is happening against a backdrop of national problems with laboratory capacity, which means fewer Covid 19 tests are available and results are taking longer.

 Working together with LRF partners, we’ve put the following in place:

  • Moved into major incident response mode;
  • Directed local testing facilities towards areas of greatest need;
  • Stepped up support to care homes and other care services;
  • Started to prepare for re-introducing restrictions to visits to care homes in the Selby district 
  • Paused the re-opening of social care day services;
  • Worked with Safety Advisory Groups (SAGs) to develop guidance to ensure events are Covid-19 compliant and to advise the cancellation of events in areas with high levels of infection to protect lives and livelihoods;
  • Worked proactively with workplace and hospitality sectors to promote Covid-19 safety measures;
  • Supported schools and businesses with positive cases to manage incidents and prevent or limit the size of outbreaks.

These actions are being taken to try to avoid a further full lockdown if possible. Work continues now to prevent, contain and reduce the spread of the virus.

In addition, in the whole of the Selby district, people are asked to:

  • Exercise extra vigilance in maintaining hand hygiene and social distancing
  • Use face coverings when leaving home while circulating infection levels are increasing
  • Avoid large groupings of over 30 people
  • Events organisers to re-think any indoor or outdoor events that involve more than 30 people;
  • Take extra care when leaving home if you have an underlying health condition or have been advised to shield

Thank you for your continued help as we work together to control the virus.

Yorkshire Pudding Rally 2020

published on 19th Aug 2020

Important

This notice was last updated on 19th Aug 2020.

Dear Escrick Residents,

As some of you may be aware, the Yorkshire Pudding Rally is due to take place Friday 28th August to Sunday 30th August. With the current situation it will be very different to normal years, the decision has been made to not allow guests to enter the village to use the pub or the club, to further reduce the risk to local residents. All guests will be temperature tested on entering the event, and once in will not be allowed to leave and re-enter. Social distancing will be in place across the event itself as well numerous measures to adhere to government guidelines.

Selby Licencing and the Safety Advisory Group have given the go ahead to the event. However, it goes without saying that if the government guidance changes to prohibit such an event then the decision will be taken to cancel.

Permission has been granted based on the local government advice here: https://www.local.gov.uk/covid-19-outdoor-events-guidance

Yours,

Escrick Park Estate

Escrick Parish Council update July 2020

As the Parish Magazine is not being published at the moment, this month’s update is online only.

Covid 19: 

At July’s meeting the Parish Council discussed whether to reopen the playground. It was agreed to reopen the playground with restrictions in line with Government guidance, and to keep the situation under review.

Highways: 

A19/Skipwith Road junction scheme: The Chair of the Parish Council and County Councillor met with officers from North Yorkshire County Council highways team. The County Council confirmed that they had changed their position, and that for the scheme to go ahead the Parish Council would need to fund the full life cost of the scheme, not just the initial implementation. Also the PC would need to fund a further more detailed feasibility study. Officers undertook to investigate if there was any flexibility in this position. Disappointingly, it looks like despite the local support expressed in the consultation, that the scheme is unlikely to go ahead. The Parish Council and County Councillor are looking at other avenues that may offer opportunities to address the issue, such as a the Selby District Local Plan, and the Parish Council will revisit the topic in October.

Skipwith Road speeding:  The Vehicle Activated Sign has been turned to face north for southbound traffic. Initial statistics have shown a similar issue with southbound speeding, and it was resolved to seek support from North Yorkshire County Council highways team on potential speed mitigation measures for the area.

Overgrown hedges outside the Parsonage: North Yorkshire County Council confirmed they are progressing through the steps required to take action.

Motorbike noise: It was noted there had been several complaints about motorbike noise, and that police had stepped up their presence in the area.

Bus stop:

It was agreed that the Council would ask North Yorkshire County Council to ask Arriva to stop using the unmarked bus stop locations outside the church, as this caused traffic congestion and a hazard to road users. It was suggested they stop in the lay-bys just north of the Sang Thai instead.

Planning:

It was agreed that the Parish Council would make further verbal representations at the City of York Council meeting on 8th July considering the application for a caravan/leisure park at the former North Selby Mine, focusing on ensuring that approval conditions are well defined, and that improvement to pedestrian/cycle access are strengthened.

The application for a waste sorting site at the former Stillingfleet mine site was due to go to NYCC planning committee in July, but appears to have been delayed again.  The application for clay extraction west of Escrick business park is due to be heard in July.

Maintenance:

Requests for help with an ‘appearance and environment’ working party have had an enthusiastic response, and a small group of residents have made great progress at tidying the area around the fountain, and planting new plants. A wildflower border along Carr Lane is being considered as a potential next initiative.

Parish Council meeting dates:  7th September, 5th October, 2nd November . All meetings at 7.30pm online. Public welcome.  Contact: Clerk (Sally Look), clerk@escrick.org,   Chair (Richard Rowson), chair@escrick.org; Website: escrick.org
