Hungerford Theatre Company Storage Containers

The request was partially successful.

Dear West Berkshire Council,

In response to a previous request Ms Broughton mentioned that Hungerford Theatre Company made enquiries regarding the siting of storage containers on the Triangle Field ( home of Hungerford Rugby Club).

https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/t...

I would be grateful for copies of all correspondence held/notes taken in relation to those enquiries which Ms Broughton indicated were in 2012 and/or 2013, together with any further enquiries to date made by either Hungerford Town Council/Councillors and/or representatives of Hungerford Theatre Company/Community of Hungerford Theatre Company or possibly by District Councillors Hewer, Podger, Cole and/or Law relating to the re-siting of the containers ( to include other proposed locations as well as the Triangle Field).

I refer again to the HungerfordTown Council meeting minutes of 3rd March 2014 ( published April 2014) - see below for extract and link to the full minutes.

http://www.hungerfordcouncil.co.uk/blob/...

"7....... The Community of Hungerford Theatre Company (CHTC) has
applied to WBC to store containers at the Triangle Field. This has
been rejected. CHTC are considering the Croft Field and other
locations. There are 4 containers and £20k of assets."

I am assuming that there must have been a further application/advice ( either planning or for freeholder permission) as the proposal to store the containers at the Triangle Field is being put forward again at the Hungerford Town Council meeting on Monday 1st December 2014.

"Triangle Field – Purchase update; Consider and propose support for Theatre Company storage units"

Please do not hesitate to contact me if my request requires clarification.

Many thanks for your help.

Yours faithfully,

Dear Mrs Giggins,

 

Request for information: Hungerford Theatre Company Storage Containers

 

You have requested:

 

I would be grateful for copies of all correspondence held/notes taken in
relation to enquiries regarding the siting of storage containers on the
Triangle Field (home of Hungerford Rugby Club) in 2012 and/or 2013,
together with any further enquiries to date made by either Hungerford Town
Council/Councillors and/or representatives of Hungerford Theatre
Company/Community of Hungerford Theatre Company or possibly by District
Councillors Hewer, Podger, Cole and/or Law relating to the re-siting of
the containers (to include other proposed locations as well as the
Triangle Field).

 

We have now completed our enquiries and can confirm that we hold no
recorded information on an enquiry by Hungerford Theatre Company in 2012
or 2013 regarding siting of containers on Triangle Field. There is a
single email exchange with Hungerford Town Council regarding a proposal to
site a container on the Triangle Field for sports equipment storage, and
this is included. There was also an email exchange regarding enforcement
between the Planning Service and yourself – this is included for
completeness (it has also been supplied previously). It is possible that a
verbal enquiry about a planning application to site containers was made by
Hungerford Theatre Company but we can find no record of this. There is no
planning application (the information on applications is publicly
available and you may search this using the keywords ‘Triangle Field’
here:
[1]http://publicaccess.westberks.gov.uk/onl...

 

There has been a recent exchange of emails regarding the process for an
application to site containers on the Triangle Field once the Theatre
Company’s lease on their current site ends, and these are attached, along
with an extract from the minutes of Hungerford’s Triangle Field Committee
which this authority holds - the two items in the extract both refer to
containers, one to the current container (used for sports equipment
storage) and one to the proposal to site additional containers for the
Theatre Company storage.

 

If you are dissatisfied with our response, you may ask for an internal
review. Please explain fully your reasons for requesting a review. You
should contact Susan Ellis, Information Management Officer, Strategic
Support, Council Offices, Market Street, Newbury RG14 5LD, email
[2][email address].uk  within forty working days if you wish to
request a review. If you are not content with the outcome of the internal
review, you have the right to apply directly to the Information
Commissioner for a decision. The Information Commissioner can be contacted
at:

Information Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow,
Cheshire SK9 5AF
