Unfortunately like many areas, Camblesforth has seen an increase in fly tipping during the current Covid emergency.
This can be reported to Selby District Council via the following link:
https://www.selby.gov.uk/report-fly-tipping-or-fly-posting
Cllrs will pursue legal action against anyone found fly tipping on land owned by the Parish Council in order to stop this blight on our countryside.
The Parish Council has taken the decision to close the playground and park during the current emergency in order to comply with Government instructions for avoiding people gathering and spreading the coronavirus. The park is now padlocked and residents should not use the facility for the foreseeable future.
The Parish Council will not hesitate to contact the police if it is aware of people using the park and also use the CCTV for monitoring compliance – parents are encouraged to ensure they know where their children are and that they are following instructions to STAY AT HOME
Other green areas do remain open in the village for walk through exercise, subject to Government instructions being observed
The Parish Council looks to everyone’s support of these measures, taken to help combat the spread of the coronavirus and bring about the day when we can all get back to some form of normality.
The Parish Council is fully supporting a local initiative to support vulnerable and elderly residents in surrounding villages and including Camblesforth – please see the details in the attachment below.
Important Note
Unfortunately at this time when so many are working hard to support those in need during this difficult times, there are others who are trying to take advantage. Please be cautious and do not engage with anyone who is offering help who is known to you or does not have ID to prove they are part of the Emergency Community Network.
