January 2009

• Our legal advisers are working with Wrexham Council to draw up the planning agreement that sets out matters such as eligibility for the affordable housing and how it will be controlled in future, the management of the open spaces on the development and details of when contributions will be made to the primary school and off-site highway improvements and how these will be spent by the Council.

February 2009

• Local people flocked to Erddig on a snowy February weekend for a free open day. Visitors had the chance to explore the house and gardens, find out more about our schools programme and get more involved with the day to day running of Erddig. There was also an exhibition about the new development.
• Erddig and the Eclusham Community Council have agreed to enter a partnership to work more closely together and to benefit the local communities. Initially the focus will be on addressing youth problems and our community worker will be finding ways to get them involved in projects on the Erddig Estate.
