New Community Building Consultation

Milton Parish Council is proposing to build a new community building, with sporting facilities at Milton Heights. The existing portacabin building will be demolished and replaced with a new purpose-built building.

Community buildings can thrive where a local community see the value of the building and engage fully in the developing of it.

Please come along to one of the public consultation meetings and help make the new facility the heart of the community.

Public Consultation meeting dates

Milton United Football Club, Milton Heights

Sunday 17^th November 10am – 12pm

Monday 18^th November 6pm – 8pm

Milton Methodist Church, Milton

Tuesday 19^th November 10am – 12pm

Thursday 28^th November 6pm – 8pm

We would ask for a little of your time to fill in and return the following questionnaire. It will be distributed to every household. You can return the completed form by Monday 13^th January 2020 to one of the following addresses:

St Blaise Primary School, Milton Heights OX14 4DR 1 Appledore Cottage, Milton Hill OX14 4DP Serendipity, Old Moor, Milton, OX14 4ED 25 School Lane, Milton, OX14 4EH 25 Heather Road, Milton OX14 4EX

If you have any queries or require more information please contact our clerk on 07826 539743 or email clerk@milton-pc.gov.uk

Milton United Football Club will continue to use the building and football pitches and we hope the new facilities will be used by residents and community groups.

Milton Parish Council do not own any other land within the parish and no suitable land is available to purchase within Milton Village. Therefore, the new facility will be built at Milton Heights, on the land already owned by the Parish.

The housing developers will contribute £425,473 towards the provision of a new community building within Milton Parish and a further £346,317 towards a sporting facilities. These contributions could be combined, and would benefit through being more cost effective to build etc.
