Welcome by the Chairman – Cllr Johnson welcomed all in attendance.

Apologies were received from Cllr N. Barker and Cllr D. Fahy.
2. Declarations of Interest and Dispensations
None declared.
3. To Agree Minutes as a True and Accurate Record of the Full Council Meeting held on 14th
January 2025
The Minutes of the Full Council meeting held on 14th January 2025 had been previously circulated.
It was RESOLVED TO ACCEPT these Minutes as a true and accurate record of the meeting after a
proposal from Cllr Britton and a second from Cllr Douglass.
Cllr Gurney advised that she had requested a policy on Treasury Management.
4. Public Participation
a) To Receive Presentation from Cornerstone Developments on Heath Crescent Pre-Application
The site plan, original indicative layout and revised indicative layout were displayed. After pre-
application discussions there is reduction from 52 houses planned to 40 and an increase in public
open space. All but ten of the dwellings are bungalows and the density is now 18 dwellings per
hectare. The views of the Parish Council are being sought on the revised plan, the LEAP and also
offsite recreational contributions. Upon the advice of the Local Planning Authority, the Wensum
Trust has also been approached with regards to the offsite contribution.
Cllr Sear advised that he was in possession of a petition with 123 signatures objecting to the
development. His biggest concern was the highways access/egress being only on one road and
would prefer to see an access from Prince Andrews Road and an egress onto Fifers Lane.

Cllr Gurney queried whether there had been a traffic impact survey. Cornerstone Developments
confirmed that this was in the hands of the traffic management company and the results of which
would form part of the planning consultation process.
Cllr Gurney hoped that bigger gardens could be achieved with the decreased density.
It was queried whether there would be the same level of affordable housing? It was advised that
with the reduced amount of houses, there would have to be less affordable housing to make the
development viable.
Cllr Douglass advised that Broadland Council has a desire for the installation of accessible play
equipment, including equipment for neurodiverse children. Cornerstone Developments will be
guided by the Parish Council. Cllr Douglass will put Cornerstone Developments in touch with the
Youth Advisory Board which will give guidance on the types of equipment for accessibility.
Cllr Britcher raised concerns about the shared driveway serving plots 29, 37 and 36 and the lack of
pathway in this area, which was adjacent to the LEAP and so would likely attract children.
Cllr Gurney queried the safety of the attenuation system in an area of public open space.
Cornerstone Developments confirmed that the area was dual use and was designed to be used in
the event of a 1 in 100 year storm. The height difference would be 300mm and the drainage was
good in this area so there would not be standing water for long.
Clarification was given regarding the difference between formal and informal recreation and the
offsite financial contribution being for formal recreation. Whilst the decision would be up to the
Local Planning Authority, it is likely that the community centre extension project could be classed
as formal recreation.
Cllr Holland Entered the Meeting
Cornerstone Developments and Vello Homes were thanked for their time
b) To Receive Questions from the Public
There was no further public participation.
5. Council Reports
a) To Receive Clerk’s Written Report
This report had been previously circulated.
Cllr Gurney queried whether allotments had been offered to Taverham residents. The Clerk
replied that they had been, subsequent to a decision made in 2023 to offer allotments to non-
residents of Hellesdon to maximise income from the allotment site.
The report was ACCEPTED.
b) To Receive Reports from District and County Councillors
A report from Broadland District Council and Norfolk County Council from Cllr Gurney had been
circulated.
Cllr Johnson, in the role of District Councillor, advised that he had attended one planning
committee meeting.
It was AGREED that Cllr Britcher should be permitted to give a report on the Western Link.
Cllr Britcher reported that neither Natural England nor the Department of Transport would
engage with the Western Link project whilst there was a live planning application, therefore the
withdrawal of the planning application meant that meaningful engagement can be had with these
authorities to mitigate any objections.
Cllr Lock will do a report on the recent Airport Consultive Committee meeting next month

formally objects. The Parish Council REJECTED this request and suggested that the appropriate
time for a petition would be during the formal consultation period when an application is
submitted. However, the Parish Council would acknowledge that there is a petition in place.
8. To Receive Feedback on Meeting with the Director of Place at South Norfolk and Broadland
Councils about the Persimmon Applications.

• That Roger Taylor be appointed to carry out the conversion, ensuring all assets are
transferred to the new company limited by guarantee
A query had been sent to Norfolk ALC about the budget for these works, but the budget figure

Meeting of Hellesdon Parish Council
Item 5b – District and County Councillor Reports
Broadland District Council
Cllr Lacey Douglass
Broadland full council meeting to be held on 20th March to discuss devolution. The submission
deadline for LGR plans is 21st March so what has been planned is what will be submitted.
There will be a public consultation in the Autumn once the Government has decided which
model of local government they want us to have - The proposals being submitted by the current
councils may not be what Gov want so who knows what it'll look like.
Hellesdon South East
We have had information from Wetherspoons that plans have been drawn up for the site which
"should" improve the parking but as yet nothing has been submitted so the likelihood of
improvements to parking this summer are remote and residents around the Whiffler face
another year of issues. A request to review their licence on public safety grounds is being
considered by ward councillors.

Dear Mrs LeBon
Hellesdon Parish Council
Interim internal audit visit on 16 December 2024
Further to our mid-financial year visit to the Council’s offices on 16 December 2024 to test transactions for the
period from 1 April to 30 November 2024, I confirm that the procedures undertaken did not identify any
instances of non-compliance with the expected financial controls, nor any matters that would prevent us giving
a ‘clean’ response to any internal control objectives in the Annual Internal Audit Report 2024/25 which will form
part of the Annual Governance and Accountability Return 2024/25.
However, as you are aware, not all our procedures were carried out as some are restricted to the year-end and
these will be performed once the accounts for the year ending 31 March 2025 have been prepared. We will
update and conclude our testing during our financial year-end visit in May 2025.
Recommendations arising from our 16 December 2024 visit
Although we identified no matters of significant concern, we did identify one area where we recommend follow
up action be taken:
Recommendation - priority level 2
Councillors’ approval of approved payment signatories
The 14/05/2024 Full Council minutes stated the names of the four approved payment signatories, with the Finance
Officer Gavin Ellis being named as one of the four. This is good practice as it enables the Council to confirm its
approval of the specific signatories.
Upon GE's retirement in late 2024, Deputy Clerk Harry Clark replaced GE as an approved payment signatory. This
had not yet been recorded in any Full Council minutes at the time of our December 2024 visit.
We recommend that the next Full Council meeting states who the current four approved payment signatories are, and
the minutes record this and the Council's approval of those named.
Follow up on recommendations raised in our preceding report
We raised one amber recommendation in our ‘Internal Audit Report for the Year ended 31 March 2024’ (issued
on 3 July 2024). Whiles checking the Council’s external website following our 16 December 2024 visit we
found that the specific matters raised in our previous report had been cleared, but similar new omissions had
occurred in relation to minutes’ availability on the website, as we note in the table on the next page.
Full lists of Larking Gowen LLP members and non-member partners are available at the above address. Larking-gowen.co.uk
“Larking Gowen” is the trading name of Larking Gowen LLP which is a limited liability partnership registered in England and Wales (LLP number OC419486). Where we use the word partner it refers to the members of Larking
Gowen LLP and to any non-member partners. Registered to carry on audit work in the UK, regulated for a range of invest ment busi ness act iv it ies a nd l icen sed t o carry out t he res erved l ega l act iv it y of non -

27 Previous recommendation: Current status: (From our 3 July 2024 report) As per checks following our 16 December 2024 visit
Minutes omitted from the HPC website Not fully cleared. New recommendation raised:
The Full Council’s 12/12/2023 meeting was omitted Minutes omitted from the HPC website - new
entirely from the HPC website.
As noted at left, the specific omitted minutes identified
The 9/1/2024 and 9/4/2024 Full Council meetings were during our May 2024 visit were corrected on the day.
listed, but links to the minutes did not work. We raised
However, our check of the minutes section on the
this with Officers, who corrected it on the day.
HPC website on 20/12/2024 noted two new cases
As we only checked for November 2023 to March 2024 where the links to the minutes did not work (i.e. the
meeting minutes of the Full Council, and the PPR and minutes do not appear when the ‘minutes’ button is
Community Centre committees, it is possible other clicked on). Those are:
minutes and meetings may also have been omitted from
the new website. • Community Centre Committee, 14/08/2024
meeting minutes
We recommend Officers review the new HPC website’s
“Your Council” pages, to confirm that all meetings of the • Planning Committee 14/05/2024 meeting
Full Council and Council committees in recent years are minutes
on the website, and for each meeting date, the agenda, We recommend these broken links be corrected, and
minutes, and relevant papers have been uploaded / also that minutes added to the HPC website since
linked to. 20/12/2024 be reviewed to confirm that the links to
them all work.
Reminder in relation to the Council’s Risk Register
We noted that the Property, Policy & Resources Committee reviewed and accepted the Council’s risk
assessments at its 29 April 2024 meeting, and therefore risks were duly identified and assessed during the
current financial year. As it is good practice for councils to prepare and formally adopt a comprehensive
register of their risks at least once annually, we note that a new assessment of risks, and formal adoption of
the risk registers by councillors, will come due around April 2025.
Acknowledgements
My thanks to you and to the Council’s Deputy Clerk for your time and assistance during our visit, and should
you have any queries at all, please do not hesitate to contact either Marc Cawthorne or me.
Yours sincerely

Meeting of Hellesdon Parish Council – 11th March 2025
Item 8 - To Receive Feedback on Meeting with the Director of Place at South Norfolk and
Broadland Councils about the Persimmon applications.
Broadland Council has provided a summary of the questions that will assist the Parish Council
in coming to a conclusion about what it wishes to achieve from the Persimmon development:
Former Royal Norwich Golf Site Community Facilities:
As part of the reserved matters applications for phases 4-6 the following community facilities
are proposed:
• 1ha of playing pitches. The layout shows these as being suitable for:
o 1x under 12 pitch
o 1 x under 10 pitch
o 2 x under 8 pitch
• A community building of 420 m2. The community building contains a main hall,
meeting/function room, office space, kitchen, toilets and associated store space.
• A neighbourhood equipped area of play of 1000sqm.
The following questions are intended to help guide a discussion on the community facilities
required by the parish
1. What are the parish priorities in relation to the 1ha playing pitches?
2. Is football the priority for the parish? Is the council aware of specific teams who would
wish to use the facilities/currently looking for facilities?
3. If football pitches are the priority, do the parish council consider the size of the pitches
reflects the age group needs?
4. If football pitches are provided on the open space, are there associated facilities that the
parish would wish to see in the community building i.e. changing facilities/ Toilets
accessible from the pitches etc to support the use?
5. Would the parish council seek to take on the management of the community building?
6. Are there other facilities which the parish would wish to see/need within the community
building?
One the Parish Council is clear about its objectives, Persimmon can be invited to attend a
Parish Council meeting in a similar manner as other developers.

Meeting of Hellesdon Parish Council – 11th March 2025
Item 10 To Consider Sale of Baby Grand Piano in Community Centre
With a view to saving money, the Clerk has been asked to review the cost and use of the baby
grand piano in the community centre.
History:
The baby grand piano was purchased in 2016 for £5,299 (inclusive of VAT).
In the last 3 years it has been used for one event, which was the re-opening of the Community
Centre.
The Parish Council also owns and upright piano, which is used on a regular basis.
Issues:
The problems with the baby grand are as follows:
• It is heavily underused
• It is surplus to requirements as there is already a piano in the building which can easily
moved by the facilities team.
• It gets in the way of events in the ML, causing issues for both the facilities team and
hirers (the piano has to be taken into account with every room plan put in place).
• It gets damaged by events in the ML
• It is costly to repair and retune
Proposed Solution:
Like the excess chairs in the community centre, the best value solution for the taxpayer is to sell
the baby grand. Continuing to house an unused asset in a main entertainment room will
continue to cost the taxpayer in repairs. An initial quote suggested that the depreciation has
already been significant, given the damage it has incurred and its unfashionable colour.
