Another month filled with lots of meetings both in council and around the ward. Here are just a few of the matters I have been involved with. I have just finished a course on speed cameras so I can go around the ward doing checks, but I have to wait for police clearance first. Idsall Drive car park is now about to start being developed, with a five-bedroom, five en-suite bathroom house. The local residents are not too happy about…
Doesn’t time fly, since the May election I have not had as much free time as I would have liked to walk round the whole Ward. There have been some big projects getting under way and I have been working hard on them, but there are still many smaller, local matters I am involved in pursuing – the grass verges in Southam Road, between Shaw Green Lane and Laxton Meadow, I thanked the Highways Department for cutting the verges, but…

As the Senior Councillor for Prestbury I take very seriously making progress with the smaller issues which local residents bring to my attention in addition to my responsibilities to our Town as a whole. Here are just a few of the day to day matters I have been dealing with recently: Priors Rd resurfacing – at long last we managed to persuade the County Council of the importance of this work being done on this major road approaching Prestbury. The…

PAB was sorry to note the closure of the Hilltop stores local shop (corner of Hilltop Rd / Tommy Taylors Lane ) on 1st June. Pradeep has been serving the local community for many many years not least all the way through Covid times. He will be missed and we wish him and his family well.
Glebe Road – Within 48 hours of the recent election PAB Councillor, Stan Smith, was again out and about dealing with residents concerns. He has now made several visits to Glebe Rd to discuss residents concerns about flooding. He called in the local Inspector whose initial investigation could not get to the root of the problem so a full drainage investigation has been ordered. Priors Road – After extensive efforts by PAB Councillors Smith and Bassett- Smith, working with County…
Many congratulations to Stan Smith for winning the Prestbury local election & and topping the poll with 928 votes. Stan and the PAB management committee would like to express their sincere thanks to all our loyal PAB members for their fantastic support & in particular those who were able to vote to elect Stan. Also thanks go to all our volunteers who helped with delivering the election leaflets. The full election results can be found at the Cheltenham Council website…
Reasons why voting for Stan Smith & PAB Group on 2 May is a sensible choice. – PAB are your free thinking, local Independent Party with their only loyalty to Prestbury residents not some remote mainstream party. – Stan Smith, the PAB candidate for the forthcoming Prestbury Local Election is an actual long standing resident of the Prestbury Ward as declared on the Ballot form. Half of the other six Prestbury candidates, all from the mainstream parties, have declared their…
Well, six months on, thank you for your support. Being your Councillor and working hard for the Ward has been a real privilege. I hope that on the 2nd May, you will vote for me and PAB once again. Just a reminder you have up to two votes as, unusually, we are electing a full Council this time. It is just me standing for PAB and to be clear you don’t have to use your second vote, your vote for…
