The construction of pre-engineered buildings (PEBs) is gaining traction in Pakistan. Unlike conventionally constructed buildings, PEBs are created by assembling a frame made of steel ‘I beams’, which are joined by welding steel plates. The ‘I beams’ are then assembled on site using bolted connections to create the structure that is built on top of a concrete foundation.
Once the frame is erected, a variety of materials can be used to clad the building including roll-formed, profiled steel sheets, wood, tensioned fabric, precast concrete, masonry blocks and glass curtain walls.
PEB frames are substantially lighter than conventional structures and do not rely on columns for support. They are therefore ideal for buildings that require large spans (open spaces) such as banquet halls, factories and sports complexes. The assembly and construction of a PEB is usually overseen by an architect, who ensures that certain aspects of the building (such as dimensions, occupant comfort, fire safety and aesthetics) are taken care of and up to par. A number of suppliers in Pakistan provide materials required for PEBs; complete building kits can also be imported.
The advantages of PEBs include:
- An efficiently designed PEB uses less steel which translates into lower costs; it is also up to 30% lighter than conventional structures.
- Since the components are manufactured at a factory, the need for formwork, shuttering and scaffolding is significantly reduced; this ensures strict quality control and easier manageability at the construction site. Continue reading

Hitmen look to help
If you know of a local recreation project that could use a little help to be completed, the Calgary Hitmen Foundation Community Restoration Program could be the answer.
One lucky community within 50 km of Calgary’s city limits will receive $50,000 towards a recreational improvement project. The grant is open to all recreation and sports facilities, however the project must be affiliated with a not-for-profit organization or registered charity currently refurbishing an outdoor space or fundraising for a new development.
The project cannot be funded by the City of Calgary or Alberta government.
Candice Goudie, Executive Director of Charitable Foundations and Community Investment with the Calgary Hitmen, said the club is eager to support local initiatives.
“We feel this grant opportunity will enrich the lives of our neighbours while promoting health, wellness and community living,” said Goudie. “We really want to be a part of creating spaces that are safe and encourage kids to be outside or to be participating in recreation. We know how important these are for communities, families and schools.”
The potential opportunities with the Community Restoration Program include things such as parks, playgrounds, outdoor rinks and tennis courts.
“We hear all the time from communities that they’re interested in upgrading their spaces,” said Kendra Varoney, acting manager, Neighbourhood Connections, Calgary Neighbourhoods. “We’re certain that there will be a lot of interest in this and we’re excited for it as well.”
Communities are encouraged to submit their applications before March 28. The top-3 applicants will be announced April 3 and selected based on their plans for the grant. Those final three communities will then create video submissions for the public to vote on at hitmenhockey.com from April 12-26. The video with the most votes will be awarded the $50,000.
The Calgary Hitmen Foundation has been supporting grassroots sport organizations and health initiatives in the community and surrounding area for over 15 years, including Camp Kindle. To date, the Foundation has supported agencies with over $2.5 million.

NASHIK: Nashik Municipal Corporation (NMC) served notices to owners and occupants of 397 dilapidates structures across the city, asking them to vacate the premises or undertake repairs before the monsoon.
In case anything untoward happens once rains set in, NMC has warned that owners and occupants of these premises would be held responsible. In the monsoon last year, two died and three were injured after a century-old wada in the heart of the city was damaged on August 10, 2018.
NMC officials said it is dangerous to live in dilapidated structures that may not be able to withstand rain. Occupants, many with nowhere else to go, have refused to vacate such buildings.
Most of the structures are in the old city area have wadas that have withered with time but continue to remain occupied. There are structures that appear unsafe in the east and west divisions of the city including in Kazigadi.
Of total 397 dilapidates structures identified, 150 are in Panchavati division. There are 103 in Nashik West. Around 67 dilapidated structures are in Nashik Road, 39 in Nashik East, 23 in Cidco and 15 in Satpur division.
“A building could collapse not only because it is old, but also if a fresh construction is of poor quality. We identified 397 dilapidated structures across the city, some of which are about 40 years old,” an official of the town planning department of NMC said.
The officer said notices are slapped on owners and occupants, but they seldom respond. “We issue them notices every year before monsoon. In some cases, there are problems between tenants and owners of the wadas or houses, while the matter is in court in other cases,” the official explained, adding that it is hard to get residents to shift until disaster actually strikes.
“We have makeshift locations like schools, in case of emergency. We could shift occupants to these safer locations. Repairs should happen in time, if the condition of structures is bad, they should shift,” the NMC official said.

This playground is located in Alcudia, right next to the public parking lot along Carrer de Teodor Canet. You can access it from multiple entryways right from the corner of Carrer del Bisbe Pont and Teodor Canet. There are also stairs along the street that lead up to the playground.
The playground is split into two sections. One for younger children aged 2-5 and the other area for 6+. The flooring of the play areas is rubberized. There are several benches located along the sides of the playground, some directly in the open and a few under trees.
There is also a multigenerational training area tucked away in a corner that features quite a few pieces of equipment.


Search and rescue work at the partially collapsed Champlain Towers South condo, north of Miami Beach, Florida, was suspended on Saturday as preparations were undertaken for the demolition of the remainder of the building. At least 24 people were killed in the deadly incident on 24 June, with many more fatalities feared.
As search and rescue crews temporarily paused operations at the site of the partially collapsed Champlain Towers South condominium on Saturday ahead of the demolition of the remainder of the building, Surfside Mayor Charles Burkett paid tribute to the community that had rallied together.
The mayor weighed in on the concerns expressed by residents of the sister tower, located about a block away and built a year after the collapsed building in 1982. Many were still unsure whether to stay in their homes or evacuate.
Burkett said a charity that has already raised more than $3 million was prepared to cover the costs of alternative housing for those eager to move out.
Rescue personnel continue the search and rescue operation for survivors at the site of a partially collapsed residential building in Surfside, Florida, U.S. July 2, 2021.
Meanwhile, a “top-to-bottom review” of the structure is to be carried out, expected to take about 30 days.
Something ‘Very Wrong’
Over a week has passed since the tragedy on 24 June that left at least 24 people dead, with the possibility of many more fatalities as authorities said on 3 July that as many as 124 people remained missing. It is still being determined how many people were actually in the building when it folded.
The beach-side building was erected in 1981, was 13 stories tall and had 135 units, at least half of which collapsed.
Part of the collapsed building that is still standing will be demolished in the coming days as there have been fears it might not withstand the onslaught of Tropical Storm Elsa that is supposed to hit Florida on Tuesday.
As an investigation continues into the reasons for the building’s collapse, experts who have examined video footage suggest a single failure could have set off what has been termed as “progressive collapse”.
Everything from design flaws to insufficiently robust construction due to building codes acceptable four decades ago has been cited amid speculations on the causes of the tragedy.
The building had been about to undergo extensive repairs as part of a review and recertification process for 40-year-old buildings, Kenneth S. Direktor, a lawyer involved in the project, was cited as saying by media.
In a 2018 report, which has been cited by outlets since the tragedy struck, a consultant had discovered evidence of “major structural damage” to the concrete slab below the pool deck. Furthermore, concerns had been triggered by the “abundant” cracking and crumbling of the columns, beams and walls of the parking garage under the building.

Emerald Ash Borer
The Emerald Ash Borer (EAB), which has killed millions of trees since it was discovered in Michigan in 2002, has been confirmed in St. Louis County including Creve Coeur. This one-half inch bright green insect from Asia will kill untreated ash trees in Creve Coeur.
The city has budgeted to remove ash trees in the right-of-way and homeowners are encouraged to create plans for their trees, as well. Dead trees are not only unattractive, they are a public safety hazard. City crews remove on average 50-250 trees each year; the tree removal project time frame is reliant on weather, equipment and personnel availability
In the event that the City will be removing an ash tree from the right-of-way adjacent to your property, a door hanger will be placed on your front door regarding the removals a couple of days in advance of the removal.
There are over 1,000 ash trees in the City's rights-of-way’s and in some subdivisions, ash trees were used exclusively. The city currently offers a 50/50 shared cost Street Tree Planting program to residents for planting trees in the public right-of-way. For more information, please check the Street Tree Planting page on the City's website, as well as your City Newsletter for further information on the EAB and the planting program.

SARASOTA, Fla. (WWSB) - The Unconditional Surrender statue was moved to its new location allowing for continued construction for the U.S. 41 Roundabout on the Bayfront.
The City of Sarasota posted the entirety of the removal on its Facebook page. Earlier this year, the City decided to keep the statue along the Bayfront after public outcry at its potential removal.
The statue would have still had to have been moved as workers continue to work on the roundabout in the area.
The WWII monument was moved to its new location between O’Leary’s Tiki Bar and Grill and Marina Jack.
Construction on the roundabout at Gulfstream Avenue and U.S. 41 will start in February.

Lorain city officials look to improve safety at dangerous intersection
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) - The intersection at Henderson Drive and Colorado Ave in Lorain is known to be a hot spot for car accidents.
According to ODOT, from 2019 to 2021, there were 30 crashes at the intersection.
In nine of those crashes, people were injured.
“You see the ambulance going up and down the road, the police going up and down the roads,” said Kurt Milligan, who runs the Offshore Pub and Grille at the intersection. “There’s a lot of action on this corner.”
Milligan said he has seen and heard plenty of crashes.
“I’ll come out and have a break and you’ll hear the screeching of the tires and you’re waiting for the big bam,” said Milligan.
The city of Lorain and ODOT are currently working together to make the intersection safer.
City Councilwoman Beth Henley said the plan is to reconstruct what’s known as a “slip lane” which allows traffic to flow onto Colorado Ave, also known as Route 611.
“Sometimes traffic does not yield, they just come into one solitary lane on 611 and that can be a problem,” said Henley.
The total project would cost $696,000 with ODOT footing 90% of the bill.
Henley has seen accidents happen at the intersection firsthand and said the project is definitely worth it.
“We don’t want to see any serious injuries or fatalities or anything like that so I think it will improve it,” said Henley.
The lane re-construction is scheduled to be done by 2025.
“Anytime we can keep our people in this city safer, that’s a plus,” Henley added.

I haven’t seen a news story or press release to say that the White Oak bike trail extension is now fully open, but what I have seen is bicyclists using the trail. So open it must be. And since the last update a month ago, there have been a couple of finishing touches. Observe:
If you zoom in, you can see bike riders in each of those photos. I have not yet had the opportunity to use the trail myself yet, but it’s on my to do list.
One more thing: All the construction equipment is gone, and I was wondering if there had been a finishing touch added to the Frasier Street entrance to the MKT Trail. Alas, that is still a no:
Maybe I can will it into existence someday.
Since I’m sure you’re all wondering what public works project in my neighborhood I’ll obsessively chronicle now that this one is finally in the books, well, it looks like work is about to begin on 11th Street. These signs appeared about a month ago:
And hopefully there will be some action on the A Tale Of Two Bridges project. So don’t you worry, there will be more pictures soon.

Gaffney City Council scraps Irene Pool project
Gaffney’s Irene Park pool and splash pad project won’t move forward as expected this year.
The Gaffney City Council voted 4 to 3 against constructing a new pool off West Montgomery Street. Among those who voted against the project was Mayor Henry Jolly, who caught some council members by surprise since he had previously stated he was in support of the plan.
Jolly said Friday he decided to vote against constructing a new pool because contractors couldn’t guarantee it would be finished by Memorial Day. He also questioned whether the West Montgomery Street location was suitable and wanted more answers on who would run the pool’s daily operations and the cost associated with it.
“I am still for a public pool,” Jolly said. “It’s not political with me. The whole thing has turned into a political football.”
The city’s pool has been closed since 2011 and was going to be demolished as part of the plan. The project’s anticipated cost was just under $1.5 million. The design called for a new pool – 82 feet by 42 feet, with water depths between 4 feet and 6 feet.
Gaffney City Councilwoman Monita Dawkins voted in favor of the project. She isn’t giving up and hopes the council will revisit the issue later this year.
“I was totally shocked he (Jolly) changed his vote on Monday,” Dawkins said. “Nothing ever changed with the project.”
Dawkins said if council had approved the project, construction would have been completed by July.
“It’s going to come up again,” Dawkins said. “I am not going to let it go. There is nothing in our community for our children.”
Dawkins said a new pool could be multi-use and provide space for swim meets.
Councilwoman Stephanie Smith said Jolly had always publicly supported the project and was frustrated he decided not to award the contract to BWC Contracting.
“We will still be pushing this issue forward,” Smith said. “The project is delayed but not defeated.”
Smith and Dawkins said they believe Jolly voted against the project because council in August voted against a plan to install a $7,300 sign at Jolly Park, formerly called Henry L. Jolly Park.
Smith and Dawkins opposed spending city funds on the sign. Smith said she believed Jolly decided to change his vote as political retribution for them not agreeing on the sign.
Jolly dismissed the councilwomen’s argument.
“Absolutely not,” Jolly said about the councilwomen’s claim. “That came out of left field.”
Gaffney City Administrator James Taylor said with the 4 to 3 vote the project has been scrapped. Jolly said he wouldn’t be opposed to taking another look at it, but the city should consider alternative sites.

Crosswalks, Pedestrian Crossing Signals Part of Improvements
(July 2, 2018) – In early July, the Maryland Department of Transportation State Highway Administration (MDOT SHA) will begin improvements for pedestrian safety and access at key locations on US 301 (Crain Highway) in Brandywine. The $118,000 pedestrian crossing project will be complete mid-fall and will help “calm traffic” and reduce excessive speeding through the corridor.
MDOT SHA is installing pedestrian crossing signals and crosswalks at the US 301/Chadds Ford Drive/Timothy Branch Drive intersection and at the US 301/Clymer Drive/Matapeake Business Drive intersection. The signals will display the amount of time remaining to cross the roadways to pedestrians and “count down” to zero and the warning not to cross, along with audible instructions for reinforcement and visually impaired people. These improvements will connect pedestrians from large residential areas to shopping and entertainment in the heart of Brandywine. In addition to the pedestrian crossing signals, crews will install crosswalks at these locations. Maryland law requires drivers to stop for pedestrians at crosswalks.
“MDOT SHA has worked closely with community leaders and stakeholders and we appreciate their support,” said MDOT SHA Administrator Gregory Slater. “Approximately one-fourth of all traffic fatalities are pedestrians. Improvements like these, combined with reduced vehicle speeds and attentiveness by all roadway users, will help prevent collisions.”
Motorists can expect periodic single and double lane closures during the project. MDOT SHA’s contractor, Rommel Engineering and Construction, Inc. of Linthicum, is permitted to work Sunday nights through Friday mornings between 9 p.m. and 5 a.m. and will use cones and arrow boards to guide motorists through the work zone. Approximately 97,000 vehicles use this section of US 301 each day, so motorists should leave extra commuting time during work hours.
While MDOT SHA and its transportation partners work hard to maintain safe traffic mobility in work zones, each driver needs to actively modify his or her driving style to help prevent crashes. Stay alert and look for reduced speed limits, narrow driving lanes and highway workers. Slow down and don’t follow too closely. Work Zone Safety is in Your Hands

The Southern Maryland Chronicle is a local, small business entrusted to provide factual, unbiased reporting to the Southern Maryland Community. While we look to local businesses for advertising, we hope to keep that cost as low as possible in order to attract even the smallest of local businesses and help them get out to the public. We must also be able to pay employees(part-time and full-time), along with equipment, and website related things. We never want to make the Chronicle a “pay-wall” style news site.
To that end, we are looking to the community to offer donations. Whether it’s a one-time donation or you set up a reoccurring monthly donation. It is all appreciated. All donations at this time will be going to furthering the Chronicle through hiring individuals that have the same goals of providing fair, and unbiased news to the community. For now, donations will be going to a business PayPal account I have set-up for the Southern Maryland Chronicle, KDC Designs. All business transactions currently occur within this PayPal account. If you have any questions regarding this you can email me at firstname.lastname@example.org
Thank you for all of your support and I hope to continue bringing Southern Maryland the best news possible for a very long time. — David M. Higgins II

LAFAYETTE, LA – Congressman Clay Higgins (R-LA) delivered a letter to mayors, parish presidents, and police juries across Louisiana’s 3rd District informing of federal grant opportunities that are available to address flood and disaster mitigation.
“As South Louisiana continues to recover from a year of devastating natural disasters, I am writing to inform you of federal grant opportunities that can help our communities rebuild,”wrote Congressman Higgins.“We must work together to address long-standing drainage, water management, and flood mitigation needs. While my office continues to push for supplemental disaster assistance at the federal level, many federal grant programs are already approved and available.”
The letter specifically mentions FEMA’s Hazard Mitigation Grant Program, Flood Mitigation Assistance, Building Resilient Infrastructure & Communities, and disaster-specific Public Assistance programs.
“Though these resources have been made available, it is incumbent upon state and local officials to apply for these grants. If you have not already, I urge you to aggressively pursue these resources,” wrote Congressman Higgins.

Starting Friday, Bidhannagar police will restrict movement on three-foot overbridges on VIP Road, as a safety measure keeping the Durga Puja crowd in mind. “Movement will be restricted depending on the crowd. During peak hours, the foot overbridges will be kept closed,” said an official.
Police said that three bridges — at Golaghata, Clock Tower Crossing and Dum Dum Park — have limited capacity.
“No crossover of people will be allowed at Clock Tower Crossing during peak hours. The newly constructed Golaghata underpass will be used for crossover near Golaghata,” Deputy Commissioner (headquarters) Amit Javalgi said.
“Parking or alighting on VIP Road from Golaghata crossing to Clock Tower Crossing will not be allowed. Buses towards airport will be diverted to service road just after Dakshindhari. De-boarding of commuters will be done through service road at Golaghata and Bangur. The crowd will be dispersed and channelised through service road towards Bangur underpass,” an official said.
“During four days of puja, no auto or taxi parking or stoppages will be allowed between Golaghata and Bangur. Major traffic to Kolkata and to airport will be diverted via Main Arterial Road, through Rajarhat connect,” the official added.
As many as 2,000 personnel including officials of deputy commissioner and inspector ranks, along with civic volunteers and homeguards will be deployed under the Bidhannagar police jurisdiction to ensure safety of people during Durga Puja.
They have drawn up a special traffic plan to ensure smooth vehicular movement on VIP Road. Officials said that a blueprint of traffic arrangements has been prepared keeping some of the big puja pandals like Sreebhumi in mind. The arrangements have been made after a series of meetings with puja organisers, Kolkata Police and other concerned agencies. Bidhannagar police will give real-time updates through their official Facebook page.

The work was due to be completed on Saturday 27 September; however the last shift was completed on Sunday 21 September.
Highways Agency Asset Manager Kevin Bown said:

Beaumont Should have over $35 Million in their Fire Station Mitigation Fees Fund, but Beaumont has no Fire Station Mitigation Fund.
Page 110 of the 2016/2017 Financial Statements is actual General Fund Expenditures compared to the Budget.
In Fiscal Year 2017 the City of Beaumont planned to collect a total of $22.8 Million in Revenue and spend $28 Million. Magically; the City did collect $28 Million in Revenue but declared $29 Million in Expenses. The question is; where did the money come from and where did the money go?
The City collected a Million more in Taxes than budgeted, $2.3 Million more in License and Permits, and a Million more than planned for Charges for Services.
The City claims to have spent $5.4 Million from the General Fund for General Services, $12.5 Million on Public Safety, $2.9 Million on Public Works, $1.2 Million Community Development, $2.3 Million on Community Services, $4.2 Million on Garbage Collection, and another $1/2 Million on ‘Capital Outlay’ and paying on the $3 Million Fine from the State for Forging RDA Documents.
Beaumont also reported $7.49 Million Transferred into the General Fund from ‘Other Sources’
The City once again claimed the $3 Million in Mitigation Fees from the Heartland deal that were also claimed as General Fund Revenue on the 2016 Audit.
By claiming an additional $10 Million in General Fund Revenue the City claims to have a taken the General Fund Balance from a Negative $4 Million to a Positive $5 Million, which is the same claim made on last years’ Audited Financial Statements.
Every year for the past quarter century the City has had $6 Million to $12 Million more General Fund Expenditures than Revenue. 2017 was not an exception.
Beaumont should have over $35 Million in their Fire Station Mitigation Fees Fund. But there is no Fire Station Mitigation Fees Fund. All Mitigation Fees collected are deposited into the General Fund and spent on Lawyers and Consultants instead of building the City’s Infrastructure.

Since the beginning of 2022, more than 30 km of roads leading to medical facilities have been repaired in the Moscow Region. This was announced on Monday, October 3, by the press service of the regional Ministry of Transport and Road Infrastructure.
The road surface was repaired on 10 roads leading to clinics, hospitals, ambulance stations and other medical facilities for the comfort of medical workers and residents of the region, writes the Moscow City News Agency.
The work was carried out within the framework of the national project “Safe High-Quality Roads,” RIAMO clarifies. They were held in seven urban districts of the Moscow region: Odintsovo, Volokolamsk, Serpukhov, Podolsk, Lukhovitsy, Ramenskoye and Pavlovsky Posad.
Earlier during the season, road services repaired more than 23 km of pavement on roads leading to tourist places in the Moscow region. As the 360 TV channel notes, the annual plan for the repair of roads in the Moscow region has been completed by more than 90%.
On September 23, Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin announced that the construction of the southern section of the Moscow High-Speed Diameter (MSD) from the Paveletsky direction of the Moscow Railway (MZD) to the Moscow Ring Road would be completed in 2023. During the inspection of the work at the facility, the official noted that active construction is underway, more than half of the volumes have already been completed. According to him, the launch of the section “will have a serious impact on the transport situation not only in the south of Moscow, but also on the situation in the capital as a whole,” writes NSN.
In October 2021, auto expert Vladimir Sazhin, in an interview with the Zvezda TV channel, named the best time to change summer tires to winter ones. According to him, this should be done when the average daily temperature is +5 degrees.

Bollards Affordably Accent Landscape While Doubling As Security Assets
Bollards bring value to effective and attractive landscape planning. At their simplest, they serve as security and traffic sentinels, directing vehicles, people and bikes - doing double duty as both site definition features and defense posts.
Today's bollards handle all those needs with ease, adding grace and refinement as well. Reliance Foundry has one of the largest collections of period bollards, built to be used as stand-alone landscape accents or to attractively cover heavy-duty security bollards - most of which have little design appeal. Architectural bollards offer scores of design choices, several standard colors, and unique mounting options. Functional bollards - such as removable, retractable and bike parking bollards – add contemporary flair with practical outdoor landscaping purposes.
To make landscaping bollards a design asset across sites with any combination of functional needs, Reliance Foundry continues to develop flexible, bike storage, retractable, and even removable bollards with mix and match configuration options;
- Providing outdoor pathway definition while minimizing damage to vehicles and property upon impact, flexible bollards are the superior design choice for any site where a vehicle is likely to go over a roadway edge on turns.
- By adding lifting arms to our standard bollard product line, existing bollards are transformed into decorative bike bollards. Thousand of security pipe bollards already in place around parks and pathways can add a bicycle parking option to these posts using bollard covers with arms.
- For outdoor locations where change of accessibility is needed, Reliance Foundry offers a unique range of removable steel bollards with complimentary fixed bollard options.
- In areas where rapid & convenient changing access is needed, retractable bollards can be installed in pathways to deter intrusion, divert traffic, and define routes or roadways. Complimentary fixed and removable mix and match options are available for changing purposes across the landscape setting.
Bollards are regularly specified on all kinds of landscaping and streetscaping projects as ornamental or decorative fixtures in gardens and surroundings, sidewalks and pathways. Landscaping bollards are available in many styles, sizes, materials and colors; they are made from are durable, hard wearing materials and coatings, and are ready to withstand all weather conditions.

SYRACUSE, N.Y. (WSYR-TV) — U.S. Representative John Katko announced Tuesday that $5.4 million in federal funding, from the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), will be distributed to Syracuse Hancock International Airport and Oswego County Airport.
The federal funds may be used for a wide range of projects, including renovations to runways, taxiways, and terminals. They can also be used to fund safety and sustainability projects, airport-transit connections, or roadway projects.
Syracuse Hancock International Airport will receive $5,301,945 and the Oswego County Airport will receive $159,000.
Rep. Katko said “I was proud to vote in support of the bipartisan physical infrastructure bill that provided the funding for these airport improvements and I’m glad to see this law already benefitting our region.” Katko went on to say that these improvements will make facilities safer and improve the flying experience for Central New Yorkers.
Syracuse Regional Airport Authority Executive Director Jason Terreri said:
“We appreciate the efforts of Congressman Katko and his fellow lawmakers for their successful negotiation of the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill (BIL). Our airport serves as a critical piece of Central New York’s infrastructure. The funds allocated as part of the Airport Infrastructure Grants will not only ensure continued safe and efficient operations, but also allow the airport to position itself for future growth.”


Crediton Town Council has 12 councillors, 6 on Boniface Ward and 6 on Lawrence Ward, with 4 main committees; Town Strategy & Planning, Council Affairs & Finance, Community & Environment, Climate Emergency and 3 sub-committees; Grants, Parish Paths and Christmas in Crediton. Full Council meetings are held bi-monthly.
The Town Council owns and is responsible for the service of numerous facilities and property within the town including; 3 allotment sites, The War Memorial, St Boniface Statue, The Bandstand and Newcombes Meadow public conveniences. Information about other facilities the Town Council manage can be found on the 'Facilities' page.
Crediton is a lively market town with lots of events usually held every year. It has a close and friendly community with lots of green open spaces, shops and a strong connection with the Arts.
One of the Town Council's important duties is to act as a sounding board for local opinion and so we are consulted on a number of matters not least of all planning. The council also helps to arrange for public consultation meetings for larger projects such as the proposed link road, major planning applications and local government reorganisation. Councillors represent wards in the town and local people should know who their councillors are and if they have any issues they can ask their ward councillor to approach the appropriate agency to solve their problems such as housing, state of the streets and pavements and other issues in the town.
The Town Council has to set a budget with which to pay for the services it provides and its support for local agencies, charities and groups who enhance the lives of Kirtonians. The Council's budget, or precept, forms part of every household's Council Tax, albeit just a small part. Councillors try to keep the burden of taxation as low as possible and to spend wisely because we realise we are spending your money and you expect good value.
The Town Council, made up of its staff and members, are here to serve you. If you have any issues or ideas on how to improve the town, get in touch with one of us and even if your suggestion or comment is rightly the responsibility of another authority, we will ensure your comment is passed on.

Jonathan Bore, who began public scrutiny of Mid Sussex District Council’s planning framework on Tuesday, previously worked for the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea. There he worked with Lady Borwick, now MP for the area, when she was a councillor and met her husband Lord Borwick, a director of Mayfield Market Towns, which is looking to build 10,000 new homes near Sayers Common. Speaking at the start of the hearing on Tuesday, Mr Bore said: “I occasionally saw Lord Borwick at formal occasions, but I never discussed planning issues with him. None of this has any bearing on my impartiality.”
