  • Community No
    FINAL PROPOSALS Community No. M43 - NEWTOWN AND LLANLLWCHAIARN Introduction 1. Newtown is the largest settlement in Powys and has the range of community services and facilities that should be associated with such a settlement. It has the third highest precepting council in the county: a council that has retained a considerable sense of civic pride - deriving from the former urban district of the same name - in its activities. 2. The community has a population of 10,873, an electorate of 8,238 (2005) and a council of 16 members. The community is warded: Llanllwchaiarn North with 1,664 electors and three councillors; Llanllwchaiarn West with 1,433 and three; Newtown Central with 2,300 and three; Newtown East with 1,572 and three, and Newtown South with 1,269 and four. The precept required for 2005 is £132,785, representing a Council Tax Band D equivalent of £35.01. 3. Apart from a transfer of the area around Aberbechan Hall to the new Abermule ward of Llandyssil community, the boundaries of this community were not significantly affected by the 1986 Review. Recent development, together with its designation as a small village in the Unitary Development Plan, has meant that the small village of Aberbechan now straddles the community boundary with Llandyssil, a point to which we shall return. 4. In the 1986 Review, it was proposed and generally accepted that the community should be divided into five wards, and the final proposals of the Local Government Boundary Commission for Wales were that each ward should have an allocation of three councillors.

    CYNGOR SIR POWYS COUNTY COUNCIL PORTFOLIO HOLDER DELEGATED DECISION by COUNTY COUNCILLOR HEULWEN HULME PORTFOLIO HOLDER FOR ENVIRONMENT JANUARY 2021 REPORT AUTHOR: Traffic Engineer North, Highways & Technical Services REPORT TITLE: Melin y Ddol and Berriew – Speed limit modifications REPORT FOR: Decision 1. Purpose To introduce a permanent 40mph Speed Limit Traffic Regulation Order along the developed frontage of the B4385 through Melin y Ddol; and to modify the permanent speed limit through parts of Berriew to take into account concerns raised by the local community. 2. Background 2.1. Full planning consent has been secured by a developer to construct a 26-pitch static caravan park at Banwy Mill, Melin Y Ddol. One of the developer’s obligations with respect to this planning consent is to fund a traffic order to introduce a 40mph speed limit along part of the B4385 that passes through Melin y Ddol. This obligation was secured as planning gain in response to concerns expressed by residents about the speed of traffic travelling through Melin Y Ddol over a number of years. 2.2. Traffic speed and volume data through Melin Y Ddol has been collected and scrutinised, and the area traffic engineer has discussed and agreed the extents of the speed limit modifications with the developer’s agent. 2.3. The developer has already paid the Council’s fee to consult, advertise and bring into effect the traffic regulation order. 2.4. The developer will also be funding the required speed limit signage and carriageway markings within Melin y Ddol to bring the speed limit into effect as part of their development works; and it is anticipated that these works will be carried out some time between March and July 2021 if no substantiated objections are received during the traffic regulation order public consultation process that may prevent the Order being made.

  • Newtown & Llanllwchaiarn Town Council
    Community Delivery What we’ve learnt so far Cyngor Tref Y Drenewydd a Llanllwchaearn Newtown and Llanllwchaiarn Town Council Cllr. Sue Newham, Mayor www.newtown.org.uk Brisco House, home of the Town Council 2 Rewind five years In 2012, Newtown Town Council started a restructuring process. • Taking on more staff • Updating council policies and procedures • Interacting more proactively with Powys County Council, neighbouring councils and local community organisations. Change is very hard work The process was very painful at times. Fire safety issues with the building we occupy Appointing a new staff team Implementing a new committee structure Starting ambitious projects- Food Festival and new website Coping with councillor resignations and co- options Newtown Food Festival Newtown website www.newtown.org.uk Finally reaping some rewards During 2015 and 16, councillors began to see the benefits of the changes. • New staff team working well. • New committees making decisions and managing their budget within their terms of reference. • Recognition that the Town Council was a force for making things better in Newtown. What has this got to do with Community Delivery? I include this information about the journey we’ve been on because I don’t think we would be in a position to consider asset or service transfers, if we hadn’t been through this restructuring process. And we haven’t arrived yet! Doing a health check on your council In order to be successful with taking on new responsibilities, assets or services, a council needs a firm foundation. Use the sheet you have been given to think about your council.
