Mid Suffolk is continuing its progress towards a potential merger with Babergh and the position of a single Chief Executive for the two councils has been advertised. It is hoped to appoint someone by June. The public poll to consider the potential merger is now expected to occur in May with the result to be announced on 6 June so as not to conflict with the District elections on 5 May.
Suffolk County Council is “divesting” itself of the old Haughley Picnic Site and has asked community groups who may be interested in taking it on to come forward. Several have already done so, including our local Scout group, and Mid Suffolk is keen to support them. We would rather not see the site end up in private hands for commercial use and think it is a great asset for locals to use. If you or your community group has a particular interest, please contact me as soon as possible.
