Sweyne Park and Grange has a page because every ward in England gets one. Nobody has joined yet — the first person to do so opens it.

Water company on site since about seven. Buses diverting round the back. If you are on the school run allow an extra twenty minutes. I will close this post when the road reopens.
The community hall
The community hall has a dry back room sitting empty four days a week. Proposal is a shared tool library — drill, tile cutter, pressure washer, ladder, strimmer — borrowed on a deposit, stored on a rack we build ourselves.
Cost below is the rack, the starting tools second-hand, and a year of insurance. Objections stay published: if you think this competes with a local hire shop, say so here and it goes in the record.
Fund a shared tool library for Sweyne Park and Grange from the ward's sponsorship money, and ask the hall for the back room.

Three metre or better. Happy to collect and return the same day, and happy to do yours while I am up there.
Proposed by a resident, supported 51, objected 6, abstained 4. The objections were about sightlines at the junction and were resolved by moving the planting six metres back. Paid for from the ward's sponsorship money. Looked after by whoever turns up on the first Sunday of the month.
