Today I met the emergency planning officer from the Vale and we went on a walkabout in Grove visiting the flood-affected areas around the Letcombe Brook. We started on The Green, where the new footbridge has been repaired and on through Bosley's Orchard, Membury Way, Kingfishers, Cane Lane and Sharland Close. We met some residents along the way and finally ended up back at the parish council. It started pouring with rain on our way back, so we got pretty drenched.
I have passed over a preliminary copy of the report I am compiling on the flood in Grove on 20th July (see previous blog) so that issues raised by residents can be dealt with. Questionnaires are still coming back and so it needs constantly updating, but hopefully we shall get there in the end!
We are preparing to have a meeting for all residents in the Grove and Wantage area on Friday 5th October. More details on this will be made available nearer the time, but we are looking to have representatives from a number of the relevant authorities to be able to answer some questions and give advice. Do watch this space.
