Local Government Reorganisation – What It Means for Limpsfield

Limpsfield Parish Council’s approach to the issue of Green Belt / Grey Belt development and its impact on the local area

With the introduction of grey belt provisions in the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF), and the preparation of the emerging Tandridge Local Plan, there are many concerns in relation to Green Belt policy, the emerging concept of “grey belt”, and the development pressures affecting Limpsfield and the wider Oxted area.

We’d like your thoughts about CCTV in Oxted & Limpsfield

Oxted Parish Council and Limpsfield Parish Council, together with Tandridge District council, The Oxted Business Improvement District and The Trustees of Master Park are considering installing a CCTV system.  

The CCTV would act as a key tool in detecting and preventing crime, disorder and antisocial behaviour.  

The cameras would not be monitored on a 24-hour basis but the recordings from the cameras could be viewed following any instances of crime, disorder or antisocial behaviour.  

Cameras will cover Station Road East (part of which is in Limpsfield Parish) and Station Road West, Master Park and Hurst Green Shops.  

The CCTV system would be jointly funded with Oxted Parish Council providing a significant share of the funding from the Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL) that it receives.

Oxted Parish Council and Limpsfield Parish Council are interested in your views on the provision of such a CCTV system and would appreciate you completing this questionnaire.  

The questionnaire should only take a few minutes to complete and will run until 7th January 2022.
