Coronavirus Recovery Phase
As we begin to move beyond the lockdown, the likelihood that people will be unable to take foreign holidays for the foreseeable future might mean that large numbers of people will take holidays, short breaks and day visits within the UK. This means that, from early July, large numbers of people might visit our area, presenting opportunities for local businesses to realise some benefits from what otherwise has been a dreadful season.
Hoveton Parish Council and North Norfolk District Council have begun to consider how large numbers of visitors could be safely managed and accommodated in Hoveton. Our village has many small retail and takeaway businesses and restrictions mean that more people are queuing to enter these businesses and are eating outdoors. We will need to adopt some temporary arrangements to provide a safe environment for pedestrians and traffic. These arrangements would need to be in place for the summer, through say to the end of September.

Parish Council Meetings Update
In accordance with new regulations issued by the Government, Hoveton Parish Council has now decided to cancel this year’s annual parish council meeting (with all current appointments such as that of Chairman and Vice-Chairman continuing until the next annual parish council meeting in May 2021) and to cancel the 2020 annual parish meeting. HPC is currently exploring the possibility of holding remote (virtual) parish council meetings, which will be open to members of the public. It is hoped it will be possible for the Council to hold its first remote meeting in early June, using Zoom. The date and time of this meeting are still to be confirmed, but three clear days’ notice of all parish council meetings will continue to be provided to local residents via our website and Facebook page.
