Come along to discuss the future
of Upton and its Residents Association, including:
· Discuss current plans to make West St the main access route into the future Upton Park development to the west of Upton . (A representative from the Homes and Communities Agency will be attending)
· Learn about other developments in Upton
· Decide the future of the Residents Association – what should we be
doing next? Who could do this work for the community? (The current committee
members have been actively involved for
the past three years and many feel the time is right to step down.)
Please attend if you can.
This is your
chance to help shape the future of Upton .
Your
residents association, your choice.
Upton
Meadows Residents' Association is at a cross roads.
The
current committee members have been actively involved for the past three years and many
feel the time is right to step down.
This is
your chance to get involved and make a difference to your community.
Positions available include:
- Chair
- Communications officer
- Secretary
- Treasurer
- and committee members.
As Upton becomes more
established, the Residents Association's role is changing. The new committee
will be able to decide how best to serve the community's needs and take UMRA in
a new direction.
Please
attend the AGM on WEDNESDAY 4th JULY, 19:30 ELGAR
CENTRE where these available positions and other matters of interest will
be discussed, there is no obligation to join the committee, but as a member of
our community your presence there would be greatly appreciated.
If you
would like to know more about the committee positions please contact the
current chair Magnus Ramage chair@uptonmeadows.org.uk.
In the
last few years UMRA has organised several community events involving a BIG
LUNCH, three BIG TIDY UPs, two Summer FĂȘtes and two Christmas FĂȘtes. UMRA is involved
in the Upton Steering Group - where local planning decisions are discussed with
the Borough Council, the West Northants Development Association and the Homes
and Communities agency (HCA). There are also current projects in development
such as a guide to living in Upton
(with the Northamptonshire Library Services), which is intended to welcome new
residents to the area, and to provide useful information about the local area
and amenities to all residents.
We need
new people to be actively involved, using their skills to help make Upton a great place to
be.
