Welcome to the LOSRA Website

Now in its 42nd year since foundation, LOSRA looks back on 2008 as a year of significant successes. Less promisingly, 2009 sees the continuation of the economic downturn, which brings with it many uncertainties and anxieties for our membership. The effects of the recession will also be felt by local government which is, yet again, to have its funding substantially cut. The recently approved Local Development Plan, which will determine the future of planning for the next 20 years, will absorb many hours of careful study before its implications are fully understood.

Information on this and all matters of local interest will be regularly added to the Site; and will be an invaluable resource for anyone interested in issues affecting the amenities and quality of life in the Lower Sunbury Area.

Crime Alert - Active Burglar in Lower Sunbury

E-mail Print PDF

Active Burglar in Lower SunburyAt 4.15pm Tuesday 30th June 2009, A distraction burglar went to a property in Hawkewood Road and spoke to the occupant, saying that he was from the Waterboard investigating contaminated water. Having asked the occupier to turn the taps on in kitchen and bathroom, the suspect left taking with him a purse containing cash and bank cards etc.

The suspect is described as a male, with olive skin, slim build and about 5' 6", with short black hair and clean shaven, wearing a cream t-shirt with navy blue top and dark jeans.

It is very likely that he is still active in the area and residents are urged to follow police advice by not admitting anyone without first checking their credentials and, if necessary, telephoning the Company before granting admission. Any suspicious activity matching the description above should be reported to the police immediately.

 

AGM - Residents and Guests Defy the Heat

E-mail Print PDF

The auditorium at the Arts Centre was filled for the Annual General Meeting on 24th June, despite the very high evening temperature.

With the exception of the treasurer who had given two years service, all officers and the committee were elected for a further year. Mr Roger Harding was elected to fill the treasury position.

The Chief Executive, Deputy Chief Executive and the senior Council Management Team attended to hold a question and answer forum. Unsurprisingly, planning and planning decisions dominated the Q & A session, and only served to demonstrate their importance in the individual and collective consciousness of the membership.

LOSRA is very grateful to the senior officers of the Council for taking the time to attend our AGM; and for the very considerable effort that will have been devoted to the preparation of answers to previously submitted questions.

The record of questions and answers may be viewed here

Have Your Say on 7th July This is a reminder that residents are invited by Spelthorne Borough Council to attend the Have Your Say event which is taking place on 7th July, from 7 - 9pm. at the Riverside Arts Centre, Thames Street.

During the evening, there will be presentations on the following topics with time for questions and answers:

* Improvements to Sunbury Cross

* Ashford & St. Peter's Hospitals Trust bid for Foundation status and public consultation.

There will be an opportunity to put questions on any local topic to representatives of Spelthorne Borough Council and its partners: Surrey Police, NHS Surrey, Surrey County Council, Ashford & St Peter’s Hospitals Trust, Community Safety Team including Neighbourhood Watch.

The evening will also feature a “marketplace” session where questions can be asked of representatives of the organisations present, at their individual stands. Have Your Say is an event which replaces the Area Forum and will be held only once a year. We urge residents not to squander this opportunity to put their questions on any matters which are of concern to them or the community.
