AT A MEETING OF THE BOROUGH COUNCIL held in the Council Chamber – Town Hall – Maidenhead on Monday 11 March 2024<\/strong><\/span> the Council debated the following motion:<\/span><\/p>\n

59.\u00a0 Motions on Notice
\nMotion a) regarding minimising the probability of flooding by ensuring that land drainage infrastructure was maintained [in a condition fit for purpose].<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Councillor Larcombe introduced his motion as set out in the Council agenda. He referred to the Councillor question about flooding earlier in the agenda stating that the upstream
\ncatchment was about 8,500 square kilometers and once the area was saturated every drop of rain came past here, especially in the winter season. As part of the answer to the earlier Councillor question reference was made to the Section 19 report which was a report on what had happened during the last flooding event and he queried where the report went.
\nHe referred to Councillor Walters who had objected, 30 years ago, to what is now known as The Jubilee River and recognised his efforts to ensure that it was considered by the Planning
\nCOUNCIL – 11.03.24
\nCommittee. He recounted that the Inspector had said \u201cit would be very embarrassing for all <\/strong><\/span>
\nconcerned if the new channel did not carry its design capacity\u201d and stated that it could not and <\/strong><\/span>
\nnever would.<\/strong><\/span>
\nHe continued that 20 years later his ward, Datchet, Horton and Wraysbury, repeatedly flooded
\nevery time the gates were opened and highlighted that this was not a natural flooding event but someone was sitting in an office looking at a chart and pressing a button.
\nCouncillor Larcombe described his ward, Datchet, Horton and Wraysbury, explaining that apart from two motorways, two railway lines with two railway stations his patch had the Thames, the Jubilee River, the Myrke which was a designated main river, the Datchet Common Brook, Wraysbury Drain which was a critical ordinary water course, the Horton drain, the Cole Brook which was another designated main river and the County Ditch.
\nHe explained that the area flooded at the beginning of January and they were still flooded today because the ordinary water courses and the channels had not been kept clean and tidy for years. He recognised this was a nationwide and political problem and the issue for Datchet, Horton and Wraysbury was that it was geopolitical because they were at the end of the borough and at the end of the county.
\nHe stated that the legislation was substandard as there was no duty anywhere for anybody to <\/strong><\/span>
\nkeep these water courses and the land drainage infrastructure clean and tidy.<\/strong><\/span> A Lead Local
\nFlood Authority resulted from the Floods and Water Management Act 2010 but he queried who they were and what did they did. He reflected on the changes to partnership funding. He concluded that the images shared with the meeting was a road in Wraysbury called Feathers Lane from previous flooding in 2011.
\nCouncillor Werner seconded the motion.<\/span><\/strong>
\nCouncillor W Da Costa supported the motion. He reported that recent training on emergency
\nplanning within the borough. He reflected that due to the climate change they were observing
\nincreased amounts of carbon emissions, weather warnings and floods. He stated that he did
\nnot think that the existing plan dealt with the worsening situation. He suggested that it may be
\nsomething for the Berkshire Prosperity Board to consider building in resilience to protect
\nresidents, farmland and businesses.
\nCouncillor J Grove commented that the recent flooding event in January had focused attention
\non the ongoing and ever worsening risk of flood events within the borough. The water had
\nbehaved very differently this year compared to the floods of 2013 and 2014. The preceding six
\nmonths had been exceptionally wet but they could not ignore the deteriorated state of land
\ndrainage systems. As a Council we are looking to the government for funding for a long-term
\nmeaningful flood defence system in the form of a flood alleviation channel e.g. RTS Channel
\nOne. Even if successful this would take years to build but a difference could be made now as
\nwell-maintained land drainage infrastructure were essential to protect the properties,
\nbusinesses and possibly the lives of the residents. She suggested that investment was
\nfinancially prudent as flooding events were becoming more regular and the cost for recovery
\nand reinstatement post flooding was increasing. She concluded that she supported the
\nmotion.
\nCouncillor Reynolds agreed that it was really important that not only the infrastructure was
\nbuilt but it is then maintained so it is fit for purpose. He agreed with earlier comments that land
\ndrainage was also really important as they were aware that green areas in many wards
\nflooded when it rained. He referred to a number of sites due to be built upon within the
\nBorough Local Plan and raised concerns that plans to build homes on flood plains and green
\nsites did not sit well with making improvements to reduce flooding.
\nCOUNCIL – 11.03.24
\nCouncillor Howard reiterated the comments about reducing the amount of flood plains, which
\nslow the transit of water into the river, by covering them in concrete the flow channels are not
\nmaintained. He raised the misery of polluted water coming into people’s houses as the water
\nmains were leaking and raw sewage was being pumped into the flood water.
\nCouncillor Jones also supported the motion noting that the responsibilities for maintenance of
\ndifferent land drainage infrastructures lay with different people or
\nOrganisations. She stated that everyone needed to step up and take responsibility because
\nwithout everybody maintaining the infrastructure it just would not change.
\nCouncillor Bermanage referred to the council\u2019s ability to serve enforcement notices under the
\nLand Drainage Act. He advised that the council did not currently have a land drainage
\nenforcement policy but hoped it was something they would have the resources to develop and
\nimplement in the future.
\nCouncillor Wilson commented on the unpleasant situation in Eton and Castle where raw
\nsewage had been flowing past residents\u2019 back gardens. Paths and fields had been flooding
\ndue to lack of channel maintenance and grazing land had now designated a wetland because
\nof poor drainage. He concluded by encouraging the use of local contractors to support the
\nlocal economy.
\nCouncillor Moriarty thanked Councillor Larcombe for his continuous work to ensure this issue
\nwas not ignored. The contributions to the debate showed that this issue was affecting different
\nparts of the borough, even those that were not previously affected. He thanked Councillor
\nLarcombe for ensuring that resource was put into this area and noted his expertise. He was
\npleased so see the motion seconded by Councillor Werner, that Councillor Coe was working
\nwith him and Cabinet members were listening. He understood that creative solutions would be
\nrequired and concluded by showing admiration for his determination.
\nCouncillor Coe supported the comments made and added that he had been on site visits with
\nCouncillor Larcombe to view land drainage and the design of the Jubilee River. He reflected
\non the difficulties and complications of enforcing maintenance across the number of land and
\nhomeowners. He observed that the Council owed a debt to the voluntary groups that helped
\nmaintain these water courses as the enforcement resources had been removed within the
\norganisation.
\nCouncillor Walters reflected that he had heard Councillor Larcombe\u2019s lone voice for some
\ntime. He reflected that previous discussions had been lost and he thanked him for bringing the
\nmotion and was pleased to see it supported.
\nCouncillor Reeves mentioned the lack of maintenance of a culvert in Kimbers Lane had
\ncaused flooding which meant walkers had to climb over a fence to continue. He stated that
\ndevelopers needed to be reminded that when building on affected land they needed to take
\nappropriate accountability and responsibility for maintenance. He continued that the council
\nshould be ask asking as part of planning conditions that they achieve this critical aim of them
\ntaking responsibility.
\nCouncil Werner commented that Section 19 report captures each incident in detail and stated
\nit would be foolhardy not to use the report as a work in progress to help fix issues. He said that
\nas council we need to have a plan to help resolve the various issues of the drains and he said
\nthe work had already begun. He referred to the pumping station in Cookham which was
\noverwhelmed with recent flooding. Councillor Reynolds was leading a campaign against
\nsewage being pumped into waterways and encouraged everyone to sign his petition. He
\nagreed that it would be a long process. He agreed that it was so important that the national
\ngovernment stepped up and dealt with this emergency. He reflected that this infrastructure
\nissue was the kind of project that the new Berkshire Prosperity Board could support future
\ngrowth.
\nCOUNCIL – 11.03.24
\nCouncillor Larcombe summed up the debate by stating that the Environment Agency had
\nfailed to maintain the Thames, they got rid of the dredgers, dredger operators and disposal
\nfacilities. He described how dredging was currently carried out. He advised that his petition
\nhad nearly got 1,200 signatures and would be brought to a future meeting. He stated that
\npeople and organisations needed to work together. He commented that there was a lack of
\noversight and scrutiny as the Flood Liaison Committee was not a committee of the Council. He
\nsaid there was an opportunity for the new Administration to do better. He wanted to see
\nprogress on the Wraysbury Drain as the culvert had not worked for five years. He suggested
\nthat Parish Councils were asked to make an annual report about the quality of their land
\ndrainage infrastructure in terms of water levels, water flows and water quality. Work with
\nParish Councils to help identify and communicate with those who were responsible and
\nenforce when action was not taken.
\nOn the proposition of Councillor Larcombe, Ward Councillor for Datchet, Horton and
\nWraysbury and seconded by Councillor Werner it was
\nRESOLVED unanimously that this council takes immediate action to ensure that the <\/strong>
\nprobability of flooding is minimised by ensuring that land drainage infrastructure is <\/strong>maintained in a condition fit-for-purpose.<\/strong><\/p>\n
