New community spaces in Saint Helier

On Wednesday evening we are bringing a couple of projets to the Parish Assembly for the acquisition of new community spaces in Saint Helier - preserving green space and providing public access.

THE PARISHIONERS are asked to take into consideration and if deemed advisable to approve

the recommendation of the Connétable and Procureurs du Bien Public to purchase a parcel of land to the north of the Pet Cabin, St John’s Road, known as "La Chenée" for the sum of £5,000 which has been offered to the Parish to provide a public community space, the Parish of St Helier to pay all reasonable legal fees involved in the transaction, and to authorise the Connétable and at least one Procureur du Bien Public to pass the necessary contract in relation thereto.

the recommendation of the Connétable and Procureurs du Bien Public to accept £20,000 plus all reasonable legal fees from the St Helier Youth and Community Trust and to purchase a field to the north of La Pouquelaye Community Centre and Centre Point Trust, La Pouquelaye. The use of the land is to provide a public community space.

As Procureur du Bien Public I have no hesitation in recommending these propositions to Parishioners. The paperwork can be downloaded here.
