|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FACILITIES AND INFRSTRUCTURE | West End Facilities | Facilities in the West end, coffee bar etc, Aldi/Lidl type shop | West end Somewhere with easy access for all of Nailsea | No Idea | Coffee bar somewhere other than the Church.pub for families/older people, walkers to meet during the week without having to walk into the town centre. So many people travel out of Nailsea for their shopping at one of these stores and then use other towns for additional shopping. | 1 | Maybe | The Council voted this item as 'Maybe'. There is potential for this item to be taken on as a project, but more research will need to be done on this. |
|
| FACILITIES AND INFRSTRUCTURE | Water Bottle Filling | Provide water bottle filling stations at various locations throughout Nailsea to promote re-use . | Locations could vary but for example, near churches, council buildings, Tithe Barn, playgrounds and other popular outdoor areas e.g. Backwell Lake. | Unsure | It promotes people to reuse bottle rather than just buying a new bottle form the shop, its free when household finances are strained, its amazing how many times kids say they are thirsty when you are furthest from home | I am aware of examples in Bristol, so liaison with the council there may be useful | 1 | N/A | Water bottle filling is already promoted across the are and further promition can be undertaken |
| FACILITIES AND INFRSTRUCTURE | Notice Boards | Refurbish shabby TOWN COUNCIL Notice Board outside TESCO and resite in a more suitable place. As useless at present. | Another part of town? Weatherspoons end? In the West of town? | Unknown. | It is such a good idea NTC but in a useless place, one side not usable, as no one goes around the back! | 1 | N/A | Already in hand | |
| FACILITIES AND INFRSTRUCTURE | Doctors and Pharmacy | Further improvement would be an adequate doctors and pharmacy service with all these new builds. Bigger health centre / cottage hospital | 3 | No | The Council voted this item as 'No'. It will not be looked into further. This item was declined due to it being outside of the Council's gift. |

| FACILITIES AND INFRSTRUCTURE | Wall Painting | Paint the breeze block walls. | Along Queen's Road, Hannah Moore Road and part of North Street. | £4,000 | They're are extremely drab and depressing and bring the area down. I think painting the walls will help improve the look of the area and pay for themselves in the long run. | 1 | N/A | This item is unable to be voted on as the walls belong to private homeowners. | |
| FACILITIES AND INFRSTRUCTURE | Heritage Trail | To make it easier for all ages to read + follow the new trail. * Outside Aaron pets - either a step or handrail to help step up the 18"/20" to read the placque. * Glassworks - needs a narrow path inside the small wall to reach the placque. At present have to walk on edge of muddy grass around the 'cocks & hens' small wall. | By each of the lovely plinths. | Minimal - but I guess at present none of the plinths have easy access for 70+ yr olds who are only 5'2"!! | Nailsea has many interesting features and profress has been made to bring the history to the attention of many, but we can't all physically reach to plinth to read the info. | 1 | Maybe | The Council voted this item as 'Maybe'. There is potential for this item to be taken on as a project, but more research will need to be done on this. |

| FACILITIES AND INFRSTRUCTURE | Link Road | To alert N. Somerset Council annually that contact tree debris has again blocked the gullys to cause flooding. | The bus stop area LINK ROAD, Nailsea. The bus stop area STOCKWAY NORTH/Waitrose footpath. | Minimal - for a designated person, occasional checking of the above roads and email to N.Som Council. Thomas.Hartfield@n-somerset.gov.uk who can instruct local Area Officer Ginny Edney. | Navigating the Link Road flood was a nuisance but then the bus stop (Clevedon) in Stockway North & footpath to Waitrose were unreachable safely & dry due to flooding in 2021. This was the last straw. | 1 | N/A | This is something that NTC do already. | |
| FACILITIES AND INFRSTRUCTURE | Garden of Rest | Purchase back ownership, maintenance, care of Nailsea Garden of Rest. To be managed by N.T. Council - so far I have not been able to find out about Planning Application regarding Land adjacent to Nailsea G Rest!! The existing G. of Rest will be over full within a year. Where are existing Councillors be put to rest?? I have already put this to Councillors, May 21. So far no answer available. I would suggest Councillors take the time to look at our G. of Rest. You will see it is wll attended. The proposed housing development will add a further need. | 1 | No | The Council voted this item as 'No'. It will not be looked into further. This item was declined as there is a 50 year lease on the land. |

| FACILITIES AND INFRSTRUCTURE | Garden of Remembrance | A new cemetery or garden of remembrance on the green field site at the end of Trendlewood currently owned by St Peter’s Hospice. This would keep it as a public open area and would be relevant to the donation of the site to St Peter’s. | Trendlewood Way for the benefit of the whole of Nailsea. | The cost of the land. | To meet future demand and to maintain a quiet unbuilt space. | 1 | No | The Council voted this item as 'No'.
