Open Council Network is an independent organisation. We report on Leicester and are not the council. About us
The Castle Community Meeting was scheduled to cover a range of local issues, including updates from local policing, city wardens, and highways, as well as a discussion on the ward community budget. The meeting was also set to include feedback from councillors.
Local Policing Update
The meeting was scheduled to receive an update from Leicestershire Police regarding local policing matters.
Community Safety Update
A community safety update was planned, which would likely cover initiatives and concerns related to the safety of residents in the Castle ward.
City Warden Update
An update from the City Wardens was on the agenda. City Wardens are council employees who work to improve the local environment and address issues such as littering, dog fouling, and anti-social behaviour.
Highways Update
The meeting was scheduled to include an update on highways matters. This could encompass discussions on road maintenance, traffic management, or proposed changes to local infrastructure within the Castle ward.
Ward Community Budget
A key item on the agenda was the Ward Community Budget. This budget is allocated to local councillors to fund projects and initiatives that benefit the community. The report pack indicated that this would be a topic for discussion, allowing for input on how these funds could be best utilised.
Councillors' Feedback
The agenda also included a slot for Councillors' Feedback.
This would have provided an opportunity for the ward councillors – Councillor Mick Gregg, Councillor Patrick Kitterick, and Councillor Liz Sahu – to share information or address issues raised by residents. Punum Patel, the Community Engagement Officer, was listed as a point of contact for further information regarding the meeting.
