A Former Grantham factory is set to be demolished to make way for a new business development.

Fenland Foods was built on Turnpike Close, off Swingbridge Road, in 1986 at a cost of £8 million.

When it opened, an advertised supervisor’s job  attracted 200 applicants.

But 12 years ago, the 730 workforce were stunned when the factory closed following the loss of a readymade meals contract with Marks & Spencer.

Brackley Property Developments has now requested  permission from SKDC planners to bulldoze the steel framed factory  “facilitate new development” for business.

Lincolnshire County Council is working with the district councils to make it easier for businesses to use areas of the highway for seating to allow their customers to social distance.

Businesses will be able to apply online for a free pavement licence and it will be determined in just ten working days or less, following consultation with local agencies and the public.

We are also extending this policy to shop owners who may wish to place a stall on the street outside their premises.

The new licencing process is temporary to support businesses while social distancing measures may still be in place. Once approved, the licence will be valid until the end of September 2021.

Cllr Richard Davies, executive member for highways at Lincolnshire County Council, said:

“This is an overhaul of the previous street café licensing, to streamline the process and help kick start the local economy safely.

“The temporary licences are free – so that’s one less bill for local businesses to worry about – and will last until next September.

“Social distancing measures have unfortunately cut the capacity in bars, restaurants and cafes considerably. Being able to use the street outside their premises will help businesses bounce back after three months with their doors closed, and bring life back into our town centres.

“In some areas, this could drastically change the street scene, and we’re confident that Lincolnshire’s business-owners will be able to make this a success.”

For a pavement licence, businesses will need to:

Outline how many tables and chairs they want to put on the highway, and where.

Specify the days of the week and times that the furniture will be on the highway.

Show they have public liability insurance for at least £5m.

Demonstrate that they have consulted neighbouring properties if they plan to extend beyond their frontage.

Obtain a licence from their district council if they wish to serve alcohol.

Not obstruct pedestrians or traffic, including parking and deliveries.

For more information or to apply for a licence, visit www.lincolnshire.gov.uk/licences-permits or email cafelicence@lincolnshire.gov.uk. New legislation is being considered by the Government which moves the responsibility for pavement licences from the county council to district councils. We will continue to work with our district council colleagues but the pavement licence scheme may be subject to slight changes in some areas when the new legislation takes effect – this includes Lincoln, where the city council has confirmed it will run its own separate scheme.

Police attended an incident of disorder at the Reindeer pub on London Road 11.12 pm on Saturday.

Two men were injured.

An 18 year old man was arrested on suspicion of violent disorder and a 17 year old male arrested on suspicion of criminal damage.

Any witnesses who have not yet spoken to police are asked to call 101 with incident reference number 588 of 11 July.

Police were called to Harrowby Road after a lorry and car collided at Bridge End Road just before 11am this morning, Monday, July 13.

An ambulance also attended after the lorry collided with the bridge in an incident that caused heavy traffic in the area.

Officers closed the road in both directions while the emergency services assessed the situation.

The force has now revealed the extent of the damage of the collision.

A Lincolnshire Police spokesperson said: “The lorry driver was injured and taken to hospital but it’s not thought his injuries are serious

“The lorry also collided with the bridge, although there was no obvious damage caused.”

The road was reopened at around 1pm.

Chairman of Grantham Museum, David Burling, has announced his decision to step down from the role on 17th July 2020.

David, who has been on the board of the Museum since 2016, says: “It’s with great sadness that I am stepping down.

“However after leading the organisation through the recent closure and as the Museum prepares for re-opening, now is the right time to hand over the reigns to the new leadership to further develop the experience the Museum has to offer.

“During my time with the Museum we have re-developed the online experience, made progress with the Margaret Thatcher statue project and established the Museum podcast  The Betty Elmer Archive.

“We are also on a much stronger financial footing ready to take on the challenges that will undoubtably come in the future months. I’m looking forward to how these projects continue and what new experiences the team has in store for 2020 and beyond”.

Grantham Community Heritage Association, the organisation that runs Grantham Museum, will be holding their AGM in September 2020 and a new chairman will be appointed then.

Lincolnshire County Council’s executive councillor for economy and place, Cllr Colin Davie, responds to yesterday’s summer economic statement from the Chancellor, Rishi Sunak.

Cllr Davie said: “The government’s recovery plan focuses on the wider benefits to the economy that supporting people to find work, creating and protecting jobs, will offer.

“In Lincolnshire we have been implementing our own Business and Economy Recovery Plan which included specifically asking government for a programme to help young people into work.

“Today’s announcement of the Kickstart programme will directly meet that need, and although early indications are that Greater Lincolnshire’s unemployment rate has risen much less sharply than the national average, it is vital we support our young people, especially those that are not going to pursue a higher education route.

“New apprenticeship and training incentives will help Lincolnshire businesses ‘grow their own’ and attract talented young people from the county. With more than 90% of Lincolnshire businesses classed as small businesses, this has the potential to boost their growth and productivity in difficult times.

“VAT cuts for the hospitality sector and vouchers to boost spending in food outlets will undoubtedly help these sectors in getting staff back to work. We know these areas have seen some of the highest proportions of furloughed workers. If venues and customers follow the guidance and legislation to keep everyone safe, we can boost business as well as maintaining our low covid infection rates.

“We have been working hard to boost the green economy in the county in recent years. Business Lincolnshire is already supporting businesses to adopt low carbon solutions, and our construction industry is adapting its services with a much greater emphasis on low carbon products.

“Government grants announced today to encourage the take up of energy efficiency measures will offer opportunities for local business and we’ll be backing them all the way to take advantage of this.

“Funding for the public sector to ensure our buildings are energy efficient will support the council’s own commitment of making our activities carbon neutral by 2050.

“And all of the Government’s carbon-reduction measures announced yesterday will help with our developing ‘Green Master Plan’ with the ambition that the whole of Lincolnshire becomes carbon neutral in the same time frame.”
