New Committee Structure for the Witney Allotment Association

We’re pleased to say that after the AGM held on Sunday, the membership have approved changes to the Constitution to allow of a new Committee Structure for the WAA.

By this, responsibility for the day to day management of the 4 sites will be devolved to 2 committees rather than the single one in the 2012 constitution. Lakeside, as the largest site will be one; Hailey Road, Newland and Windrush Place will make up the other. By reducing the workload for the volunteers who run the Association, it is hoped that more will be encouraged to participate.

Joint responsibilities will continue to exist as a result of the WAA remaining a single organisation, and will be carried out by a strategic Committee of Management, meeting infrequently but important nonetheless.

An amended constitution will be added to the formal section of the website in due course, and the names of your new representatives added to the Committee section. In the meantime, can we remind you that rents are due in by 1st April.

PLOT AVAILABILITY

THERE ARE NO PLOTS AVAILABLE ON ANY SITES IN WITNEY FOR THE FORESEEABLE FUTURE.

We have been overwhelmed with requests for plots and the waiting list for any site is very long.

Newland

Newland is the smallest of the sites managed by the Witney Allotment Association. The site lies just north of Newland Road between Kingsfield Crescent.

Hailey Road

This site has a slightly irregular boundary giving rise to some variation in plot sizes. The site lies between Farmers Close and Eastfield Road.

Lakeside

Lakeside is the largest of the three sites. All standard sized gardens have their own parking space – though this is shared between two small gardens.

Windrush Place

Windrush Place is Witney’s newest Allotment Site, situated at the Eastern entrance to the new Windrush Place housing development.
