From the last meeting, the Clerk has responded to 21/0358/REM – erection of 4 dwellings on the site of the Old Chapel. Comments already sent: Although the number of dwellings has June 2021 Page 3 been reduced, the size of the dwellings and associated detached garages equates to roughly the same as the previous plan. This is directly in the in the heart of the village and very close to the village play area. The new development is out of character with the other buildings that surround this playground. There are concerns about over-looking of properties downwards from this development as well as potential flooding issues due to surface water runoff. Any tree planting within the development must be managed in order for them not to over- grow beyond control, which will also hopefully reduce the risk of root damage to the surrounding properties. The egress onto Keighley Road is a concern as vehicles will park close to the access road and the visibility isn't particularly good here.

  • Lancashire Behaviour Support Tool
    Lancashire Behaviour Support Tool Introduction Lancashire is committed to achieving excellent outcomes for its children and young people. Our aim for all our young people is for them to have the best possible start in life so that all have the opportunity to fulfill their learning potential. Schools and other settings should be safe and orderly places where all children and young people can learn and develop. The consequences of behaviour which challenges others can, if not addressed effectively, impact negatively on individual pupils and groups of pupils. The need for the Local Authority, schools and other partners to work together to address behavioural issues is essential if we are to promote high standards of achievement and attainment for all. The purpose of the Behaviour Support tool is to produce accessible, and accurate information for schools and settings in one place, on sources of training, support and advice led by Lancashire services and clear pathways in relation to meeting pupil's social, emotional and behavioural needs. Aims 1. To develop safe, calm and ordered school environments within which pupils are able to learn and develop and thrive. 2. To develop skills for emotional literacy, positive social relationships and emotional health and well-being among pupils to take into their adult lives beyond school. 3. To Improve capacity within our schools and other settings to include all our pupils including those children and young people who, at times, may present very challenging behaviour, as a result of a variety of factors originating both within the child or young person or resulting from their social environment.

  • Lancashire: a Chronology of Flash Flooding
    LANCASHIRE: A CHRONOLOGY OF FLASH FLOODING Introduction The past focus on the history of flooding has been mainly with respect to flooding from the overflow of rivers and with respect to the peak level that these floods have achieved. The Chronology of British Hydrological Events provides a reasonably comprehensive record of such events throughout Great Britain. Over the last 60 years the river gauging network provides a detailed record of the occurrence of river flows and peak levels and flows are summaried in HiflowsUK. However there has been recent recognition that much flooding of property occurs from surface water flooding, often far from rivers. Locally intense rainfall causes severe flooding of property and land as water concentrates and finds pathways along roads and depressions in the landscape. In addition, intense rainfall can also cause rapid rise in level and discharge in rivers causing a danger to the public even though the associated peak level is not critical. In extreme cases rapid rise in river level may be manifested as a ‘wall of water’ with near instantaneous rise in level of a metre or more. Such events are usually convective and may be accompanied by destructive hail or cause severe erosion of hillsides and agricultural land. There have been no previous compilations of historical records of such ‘flash floods’or even of more recent occurrences. It is therefore difficult to judge whether a recent event is unusual or even unique in terms of the level reached at a particular location or more broadly of regional severity. This chronology of flash floods is provided in order to enable comparisons to be made between recent and historical floods, to judge rarity and from a practical point of view to assess the adequacy of urban drainage networks.

  • Pendle Borough Council Election Results 1973-2012
    Pendle Borough Council Election Results 1973-2012 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election.

  • Response to the Draft Lancashire Division Boundaries
    RESPONSE TO THE DRAFT LANCASHIRE DIVISION BOUNDARIES My name is Anthony Robert Greaves I am a member of the House of Lords (Lord Greaves) and an elected member of Pendle Borough Council for Waterside Ward (known as Councillor Tony Greaves). I was a member of Lancashire County Council for 24 years between 1973 and 1997. My academic training was as a geographer. (1) I oppose the draft proposals for new divisional boundaries for Lancashire County Council as they apply to the district of Pendle. I do so because they do not reflect local community identities nor the relationships between communities in Pendle, and are worse in this regard than the existing County divisions. I specifically oppose the proposed Pendle Rural 2-member division (in which I would live) which seems bizarre and unnecessary. (2) I recognise that given the constraints within which you work, the fact that Pendle has a surplus of electors which makes the drawing of boundaries within the +10% constraint more difficult, and the size of the polling districts in the central urban parts of Pendle, it is not possible to create ideal divisions (and some of us have spent some time trying!) But it is possible to improve on the draft proposals. (3) In the circumstances I consider that the alternative proposals for Pendle proposed by Lancashire County Council (and supported by Pendle Borough Council) should be accepted. They are not ideal but they are much better than the draft scheme. When Pendle Council discussed the matter, only six Councillors voted against the LCC alternative which had strong cross-party support including ALL the West Craven area (Barnoldswick and Earby ward) members.
