Page 51 of 140 APOLOGIES FOR ABSENCE No apologies for absence were received. DECLARATIONS OF INTERESTS BY MEMBERS AND OFFICERS None. STRATEGIC PLANNING OBSERVATIONS ON A PROPOSED SINGLE WIND TURBINE AT STOKE BARDOLPH It was reported to the meeting that the Electoral Divisions (and Elected Members) affected by the proposals were Carlton East (Councillors John Clarke and Allen Clarke) rather than Radcliffe on Trent (Councillors Cutts) and Carlton West (Councillor Creamer) as incorrectly stated in the report. RESOLVED 2013/021 That Gedling Borough Council be advised that whilst the principle of such development in terms of strategic and national renewable energy policy was supported, Nottinghamshire County Council objected to the proposal on the grounds that insufficient information had been submitted with the planning application to allow valid and robust conclusions to be drawn on the application’s potential impact upon the landscape and ecology of the County and that the proposal would significantly impact the visual amenity of the County. STRATEGIC PLANNING OBSERVATIONS ON A PROPOSED MIXED USE DEVELOPMENT AT THE FORMER STANTON IRONWORKS During discussions, Members raised concerns about the potential for the proposals to increase traffic over the short railway bridge near the former Stanton signal box. Officers agreed to raise that issue with Highways colleagues in order for it to be addressed within the Council’s consultation response as appropriate. Members also raised concerns about the lack of reference to potential pollutants in the earth on the site due to former industrial uses. In light of these concerns, Councillor Butler proposed the following amendment to Recommendation 2:- ‘Insert after ‘archaeological report)’:- ‘and to ensure potential contamination issues are addressed’.’ Following a vote, the amendment was agreed. RESOLVED 2013/022 1) That Erewash Borough Council be advised that the principle of such development on the former Stanton Ironworks in terms of strategic and national economic and regeneration policies was supported by Nottinghamshire County Council, subject to the concerns regarding the potential impact of the proposal on the highway Page 62 of 140 network in Nottinghamshire and concerns relating to the visual impact from traveller receptors on the M1 motorway corridor, which could not be addressed until further work had been undertaken satisfactorily and relevant information had been provided by the applicants, and which would need to be addressed to enable Nottinghamshire County Council to make an informed decision on the proposed development in relation to its potential highway network impacts and the potential visual impacts. 2) That if Erewash Borough Council was minded to grant planning permission, a condition be requested to ensure that the developer undertake archaeological testing of the large areas of the site (not identified in the submitted archaeological report) and to ensure potential contamination issues are addressed prior to or during contamination. STRATEGIC PLANNING OBSERVATIONS RESOLVED 2013/023 That the report be noted. LOCAL IMPROVEMENT SCHEME PROGRAMME 2012-13 AND 2013-14 RESOLVED 2013/024 That the report be noted. LOVE FOOD HATE WASTE CAMPAIGN RESOLVED 2013/025 That the report be noted. WORK PROGRAMME RESOLVED 2013/020 That the Committee’s work programme be noted.

C ONTENTS TO J UNE 2017 AIRFIELD REVIEW The Journal of the Airfield Research Group The journal was initially called Airfield Report , then ARG Newsletter, finally becoming Airfield Review in 1985. The number of pages has varied from initially just 6, occasio- nally to up to 60 (a few issues in c.2004). Typically 44, recent journals have been 48. There appear to have been three versions of the ARG index/ table of contents produced for the magazine since its conception. The first was that by David Hall c.1986, which was a very detailed publication and was extensively cross-referenced. For example if an article contained the sentence, ‘The squadron’s flights were temporarily located at Tangmere and Kenley’, then both sites would appear in the index. It also included titles of ‘Books Reviewed’ etc Since then the list has been considerably simplified with only article headings noted. I suspect that to create a current cross-reference list would take around a day per magazine which equates to around eight months work and is clearly impractical. The second version was then created in December 2009 by Richard Flagg with help from Peter Howarth, Bill Taylor, Ray Towler and myself.

The AMR was required to be submitted to Government. 1.2 The Localism Act (and subsequent Town and Country Planning Regulations 2012) removed the requirement for local planning authorities to produce an AMR for Government. However, the Regulations retain the overall duty to monitor. Previously, AMRs were prepared in accordance with the guidance contained within the Core Output Indicators – Update 2/2008 (DCLG, 2008). This guidance was also revoked under the Localism Act. 1.3 Although revoked, it is considered that the COI guidance still provides a useful basis for the monitoring report and the majority of indicators have therefore been retained. The continual monitoring of the core indicators helps to maintain an effective time series of data against these established measures. A full description of the COIs is included in Appendix 1.

Succinct and up-to-date plans should provide a positive vision for the future of each area; a framework for addressing housing needs and other economic, social and environmental priorities; and a platform for local people to shape their surroundings. 1.3 Paragraph 17 of the NPPF notes that the development plan must include strategic policies to address each local planning authority’s priorities for the development and use of land in its area.

  • Trustees Complete 101 Mile Fundraising Walk
    11 June 2019 Trustees complete 101 mile fundraising walk On Sunday 9 June RAF Museum Trustee Nick Sanders and Museum Ambassador Robin Southwell completed a gruelling 101 mile walk at the RAF Cosford Air Show. Nick and Robin led the march of over 100 miles to raise money for a bespoke outdoor children’s playground at the Museum site in Cosford. The aviation themed playground will include miniature versions of iconic aircraft and is set to enhance the visitor experience for local families and school groups visiting the Museum. Crowds gathered at the Cosford Air Show to watch Nick and Robin take their final steps, which led them through a Guard of Honour from local RAF Air Cadets Wales and West Region. The walkers were finally greeted at the finish line by RAF Cosford Station Commander Group Captain Tone Baker, family, friends and Museum staff, who wished them well. Not ones to keep still, they then joined the RAF Chief of Air Staff for lunch at the Air Show. The Cosford Museum has seen a 20% increase in visitor numbers on the back of the RAF Centenary year. Now in the 101st year, Museum Trustees undertook the walk to build on that success with their sights firmly set on raising funds for a playground that will engage the Museum’s youngest visitors with the RAF story. Their journey was incredibly tough with the weather being against them for a large proportion of the walk, but they arrived at Cosford in good spirits with the sun shining, having literally gone the extra mile to kickstart the fundraising for a play area where children can learn and also have fun.

  • A CONCISE GLOBAL HISTORY of the RAF POLICE 1918 – 2018 by Stephen R Davies RAFP 1975 – 2000
    Copyright Stephen R Davies 2017 A CONCISE GLOBAL HISTORY OF THE RAF POLICE 1918 – 2018 By Stephen R Davies RAFP 1975 – 2000 The project to record the global history of the Royal Air Force Police began after I managed to obtain a rather thin A4 glossy magazine which had been produced to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the RAF Police in 1993. The contents were mostly photographs with a very sparse story of the RAF Police up until that point. Being rather disappointed with the publication and lack of substance, I closed the magazine and was heard to utter those immortal words, "For Goodness sake, is that it..? I could have done a better job than that..!!" The rest as they say is history...!! Seriously though, the author of the 1993 commemorative magazine had done his best because up until that point, although the RAF Police had a 'museum' containing lots of artefacts gathered from around the RAF Police world, no-one had attempted to research and write a chronological global history of the branch, and although one should never 'sound one's own trumpet' I have to say that if I had not taken on the project, with a great deal of help and support from former and serving members of the RAF Police and the families of RAF Police who were no longer with us, then this unique branch of the RAF would certainly not have such an impressive written history as they approach their centenary.
