Designated Public Places Order
A number of areas in Aylesbury Vale have been identified by the Community Safety Team, Thames Valley Police and AVDC Open Spaces Team as having issues with public drinking and drink related incidents. This includes an area of Steeple Claydon (details below)
AVDC has made Orders (Aylesbury Vale District Council (Alcohol Consumption in Designated Public Places) Order 2008) to designate lands as public places pursuant to the provisions of the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001. The proposed Order will apply the provisions of section 12 of the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001 to a number of public spaces within the district of Aylesbury Vale pursuant to section 13 of the Criminal Justice and Police Act 2001.
The effect of the proposed Order is to grant the police the power to require a person in a designated area not to consume alcohol and to surrender opened containers containing alcohol. It is not intended to implement a comprehensive ban on drinking in the open air but rather to eliminate anti-social drinking and the associated nuisance, annoyance and disorder. The following places are excluded from the Designated Public Place Order.
a) Premises where a premises licence or club premises certificate is in force to serve alcohol under the Licensing Act 2003 and places within the curtilage of these premises (e.g. pubs, clubs, restaurants, off-licences).
b) Premises where the Council hold a premises licence or the premises licence is held on behalf of the Council which authorises the sale and supply of alcohol – NB the order will not apply only at times when alcohol is being served under the licence and 30 minutes thereafter.
c) Premises subject to a Temporary Event Notice under the Licensing Act 2003 – NB the order will not apply only at times when alcohol is being served under the licence and 30 minutes thereafter.
d) Places where the sale or consumption of alcohol is permitted on public highways under s. 115E of the Highways Act 1980 (highway related uses).

SkyWatch is a relatively new watch scheme that is ideal for assisting to locate stolen horseboxes and other large items such as horsetrailers and caravans which get stolen on a regular basis. As we have links with TVP’s HorseWatch, we are promoting the use of letting and numbering, similar to those seen on the roof of a Police vehicle. We recommend the use of your postcode. This means that once we have had notification of stolen equipment such as a horsebox, we are able to call on SkyWatch to go up in the air and have a look around the vicinity to try and locate the vehicle. For more information please contact Thames Valley HorseWatch.
A form to buy the lettering can be found on www.thamesvalleyhorsewatch.org.uk.

Update on Energy from Waste initiative
The County Council have sent out an update on their Energy from Waste programme in August, with significant implications for the Calvert waste plant. Two of the three companies selected to tender for the new incinerator plant have been asked to proceed to a final tender. They are:
1. Covanta Energy - proposing an out of county site
2. Waste Recycling Group - proposal to develop their existing landfill site at Calvert
See the County Council website for more details. This includes the Minerals and Waste Local Plan and the Minerals and Waste Core Strategy. There is also a detailed Q&A section which will be added to as the process continues.
Go to the main page www.buckscc.gov.uk and click the FAQ on the banner, searching on key word 'waste'.
Bucks CC stresses that modern incinerators must conform to very stringent emission control standards and the power generated can be used or sold to benefit county council tax payers.
The final bid will be selected by the end of the year.
I am in close communication with my colleague Cllr Jackie Phipps (Marsh Gibbon) over these proposals, and we are agreed on the need to insist on improved road and rail access if the Calvert option is selected.

Romer Wood bridleway preserved
The news has recently come through that the appeal against the decision of the County Council not to upgrade the bridleway through Romer Wood near Botolph Claydon ('Three Points Lane') has been rejected by the Department of the Environment, and the County Council's original decision upheld. This is very good news, as it will preserve the character and environment of this important local area of woodland, part of the ancient Bernwood Forest. I for one am glad that our country walks with the dog through this lovely area will not be disturbed.
