• no further meetings recorded.

1947
• Letters tabled from London-based Architects for a proposed new development and requesting UPPA's agreement to the closure of the Avenue. Committee agreed to let issue remain on the table since any development was seen as some way off.
• Unanimous committee agreement again for Mr GS Martyn (possibly with Council connections) to approach Cheshire CC regarding conditions under which they would take over the Park roads. Cheshire CC representatives visited the Park to discuss the matters on 29 April 1947. They concluded that the cost of putting the roads in a fit state for the Council to then take over would be in the region of £12,000. The next committee meeting then agreed that this estimate ruled out the posssibility of dealing with the matter and that road repairs should be continued on the same basis as previous years.
• The chairman interviewed Mr Roberts with regards to him removing the caravan from his field. Mr Roberts agreed to order the owner of the caravan to leave.
• At the May AGM; the rate was raised considerably to 1/-d in the £; with the option of paying in two 6d stages. This was needed for urgent road repairs.
• Besides the housing development proposals for the Nurseries; already tabled; another planning proposal was in hand to the east side of the Avenue. This wished to incorporate the Avenue within its plan. Again this proposal was not taken up by UPPA since it was seen as several years ahead. (Clearly ;post-war; extensive housing developments were under consideration and it was far from clear at this time, which ones would get the go-ahead.)

1948
• Mr Martyn had now ascertained from CCC that plans for housing development along the east side of the Avenue had been shelved for the time being.
• Upton Parish Council approached to re-instate adequate street lighting.
• Cheshire CC requested permission to excavate in the Avenue for drainage and sewerage. This was agreed conditional on surface re-instatement.

1949
