Representing Stirchley Residents
A reminder that there is no meeting in August.
Our next meeting will be on Monday 14th September when we will welcome representatives of Birmingham City Council for a briefing on the new refuse collection arrangements which for many of us start on 19th August. By the time of the meeting there will have been 2 collections. They will be happy to answer any queries.
Stirchley Neighbourhood Forum is pleased to support PCSO Jenene Tandy who will be in Stirchley Library on Tuesday 23rd June between 11am and 12 noon.
After a brief exchange of information there will be an opportunity to speak with PCSO Tandy and/or a representative of the Forum one-to-one.
Tea and coffee will be available courtesy of Stirchley Library coffee morning.
After a busy few months which saw the Forum hosting Hustings for the elections to the Stirchley Ward we can all take time to get to know our new Councillor and assess the consequences of the changed political landscape in Birmingham.
We aim to maintain close contact with Councillor Hawwash and support him in championing Stirchley and its wonderful residents and businesses.
Bournville Police have been monitoring the speed of motorists along Hazelwell Street, after complaints from Stirchley residents. According to a tweet posted on Tuesday 6th June, a number of people have been reported for speeding offenses.
