Gayton Parish Council has received a letter from Norfolk County Council in relation to the development at Hall Farm, Back Street.
The Parish Council has been asked whether it wants streetlighting on this development.
Before giving a decision, the Parish Council would like to give residents the opportunity to have their say on whether they think streetlights should be installed on the new development or not.
I would stress that it is just the new development that is being considered and no other area of Gayton.
To have your say please contact the Parish Clerk Kate Senter by email or phone on
Tel: 01553 841387
or by email on
The deadline is 4th of February so if you want a say please contact Kate. A decision will be made at the next Parish Council meeting on the 8th February 2010.

Anglia in Bloom...
We have been invited to enter the Anglia in Bloom competition in 2010. A sub-committee has been set up and has already identified several sites within the village which would be greatly enhanced with drifts of bulbs and formal beds of flowers and shrubs.
There are a number of sections for villages of our size, namely Floral displays, Permanent landscaping including shrubs, Environment and quality of same and public awareness For the individual gardener there is an award for the best front garden
We need to produce a portfolio to present to the judges with pictures before and after, the judging of each village takes place in July 2010 . The judges will be looking for floral displays in residential premises and in business premises. Also under consideration will be the impact on the environment namely cleaning up polluted sites and maintaining and preserving natural habitats that means no untidy litter bins, no dog fouling and no fly-tipping!
The object is to produce long term improvement, to create an attractive and clean landscape. We need financial aid and physical help to plant bulbs and flowers, we need the co-operation of the residents of Gayton.
Can we do it? With your help ‘Yes, we can’

According to recent surveys the waste left behind by dogs is the single biggest environmental concern that people have about their local area. The overwhelming majority of people find dog waste unacceptable. With an estimated 4 and a half million owners allowing their pets to foul and around 1000 tonnes of dog waste produced daily in the UK there is a clear need to raise awareness of the need to ‘pick up the problem’...
