  • Local Government in London Had Always Been More Overtly Partisan Than in Other Parts of the Country but Now Things Became Much Worse
    Part 2 The evolution of London Local Government For more than two centuries the practicalities of making effective governance arrangements for London have challenged Government and Parliament because of both the scale of the metropolis and the distinctive character, history and interests of the communities that make up the capital city. From its origins in the middle ages, the City of London enjoyed effective local government arrangements based on the Lord Mayor and Corporation of London and the famous livery companies and guilds of London’s merchants. The essential problem was that these capable governance arrangements were limited to the boundaries of the City of London – the historic square mile. Outside the City, local government was based on the Justices of the Peace and local vestries, analogous to parish or church boundaries. While some of these vestries in what had become central London carried out extensive local authority functions, the framework was not capable of governing a large city facing huge transport, housing and social challenges. The City accounted for less than a sixth of the total population of London in 1801 and less than a twentieth in 1851. The Corporation of London was adamant that it neither wanted to widen its boundaries to include the growing communities created by London’s expansion nor allow itself to be subsumed into a London-wide local authority created by an Act of Parliament. This, in many respects, is the heart of London’s governance challenge. The metropolis is too big to be managed by one authority, and local communities are adamant that they want their own local government arrangements for their part of London.

  • Lawrason Act January 2014
    The Lawrason Act January 2014 "THE LAWRASON ACT" Prepared for the Louisiana Municipal Association by Jerry J. Guillot INTRODUCTION Louisiana municipalities are governed by the Lawrason Act (hereinafter referred to as "Act") except those municipalities governed by a special legislative charter or a home rule charter or plan of government. (R.S. 33:321) Prior to 1882, each municipality was incorporated by special legislative act which also set forth the municipal charter. In 1882, Act 49 was enacted, setting up a general method whereby any municipality might be incorporated. However this law allowed the body of a new municipality to draw up its municipal charter. Thus, between 1882 and 1898, each municipality enjoyed the right to draw up its own charter. In 1898, the Act was enacted. It set forth a general legislative charter for all municipalities created after its effective date, as well as for those created prior to its effective date which chose to accept its provisions. The intent of this law was to provide a uniform type of government for all municipalities in Louisiana. This fundamental municipal incorporation law currently governs some 248 villages, towns, and cities. The law is named after Judge Samuel McCutcheon Lawrason, a West Feliciana Parish lawyer born in 1852 in New Orleans. Educated in France, Spain, and West Virginia, he received his doctor of laws degree from the University of Louisiana in 1874 and opened his law practice that same year in New Orleans. He married and moved the following year to West Feliciana Parish, where he was elected parish judge. He later became a school board member, a member of the Louisiana State University's Board of Supervisors, a state senator (from 1896 to 1900 and again in 1920 to 1924), and vice president of the Louisiana Constitutional Convention of 1898.

The Statement is for the use of local residents, community groups, businesses, property owners, architects and developers as an aid to the formulation and design of development proposals and change in the area. The Statement will be used by the Council in the assessment of all development proposals. Camden has a duty under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 to designate as conservation areas any “areas of special architectural or historic interest, the character or historic interest of which it is desirable to preserve.” Designation provides the basis for policies designed to preserve or enhance the special interest of such an area. Designation also introduces a general control over the demolition of unlisted buildings. The Council’s policies and guidance for conservation areas are contained in the Unitary Development Plan (UDP) and Supplementary Planning Guidance (SPG). This Statement is part of SPG and gives additional detailed guidance in support of UDP policies.

Introduction Docklands is the semi-official name for an area in east London. It is composed of parts of the boroughs of Southwark, Tower Hamlets, Newham and Greenwich. Docklands is named after docks of the London port which had been in this area for centuries. Between 1960 and 1980, all of London's docks were closed, because of the invention of the container system of cargo transportation. For this system the docks were too small. Consequently London had a big area of derelict land which should be used on new way. The solution was to build up a new quarter with flats, offices and shopping malls. Map with 4 the parts of London Docklands and surrounding boroughs (Source: Wikipedia.org) 2. The beginning of Docklands 2.1. London’s first port Within the Roman Empire which stretched from northern Africa to Scotland and from Spain to Turkey, Londinium (London) became an important centre of communication, administration and redistribution. The most goods and people that came to Britain passed through Londinium. Soon this harbour became the busiest place of whole Londinium. On the river a harbour developed were the ships from the west countries and ships from overseas met. 2.2. The medieval port From 1398 the mayor of London was responsible for conserving the river Thames.

  • Honorary Aldermen
    Agenda Item No. 5 Governance Committee 22 January 2018 Part I Honorary Aldermen Report by Director of Law and Assurance Electoral Division: N/A Executive Summary The County Council is able to appoint former members with eminent service as honorary aldermen of West Sussex. The Chairman has asked for the matter to be considered. The report sets out possible criteria and other considerations for the Governance Committee to discuss. Recommendation That the Governance Committee determines whether to recommend to the County Council that an honorary alderman scheme should be adopted. Proposal 1. Background and Context 1.1 Section 249 of the Local Government Act 1972 sets out a power for councils to appoint former members as honorary aldermen in recognition of eminent service as a councillor. The County Council has never used this power, but research has now been undertaken at the Chairman’s request. Research has found that about half of the County Councils in England appoint honorary aldermen, including Hampshire and Kent in the South East. 1.2 The Governance Committee is asked to consider whether an Honorary Alderman scheme should be established in West Sussex County Council. To be appointed, a member must have retired as a member of the County Council and have ceased to be politically active. 1.3 The Act leaves it for councils to define ‘eminent service’. From a check of other councils’ criteria, where published, it seems that most work on a system of either a certain minimum length of service, or holding certain senior positions, or a mixture of both. The number of aldermen can be capped (one council gives 12 as the maximum number at one time) but many others do not cap, with up to around 30 Aldermen.

  • Honorary Freemen of the Borough of Guildford
    Honorary Freemen of the Borough of Guildford Introduction In past centuries, admission to the Freedom of a Borough conferred upon the recipient possession of recognisable privileges. In order to carry out certain trades or professions in a particular Borough, one had to be enrolled as a freeman and admission to the freedom was frequently necessary in order to have a vote in parliamentary elections. To become a freeman of Guildford, one had to be: (a) apprenticed to a freeman of the Borough for at least seven years, or (b) the eldest son of a freeman, or (c) by admission into the “Corporation”. Records kept in the Guildford Muniment Room contain the names of 1,061 persons admitted to the freedom of the Borough between 1655 and 1933 and also record the production of indentures of apprenticeship between 1655 and 1903. Typical entries in the two volumes of Borough Records known as the Freemen’s Books are reproduced below: 39. BARRETT, John, of Ockley. Appr. by ind. 7 Nov. 1796 to Jos.

  • A Mayor and Assembly for London: 10 Years On
    2 July 2010 A Mayor and Assembly for London: 10 years on Tony Travers and Christine Whitehead A brief history… It is 10 years since the Greater London Authority was created as a metropolitan or regional tier of government for London. There have been five different arrangements of ‘upper tier’ government in the capital since the Metropolitan Board of Works (MBW) was created in 1855 to build infrastructure. The MBW was succeeded by the London County Council (LCC), a powerful authority for the inner part of the contemporary city. Within this area 28 metropolitan boroughs and the City of London delivered ‘local’ services. Two factors were particularly important in influencing the progress of London’s government. First, the physical expansion of the city created demands for provision across a wider area than the City of London’s original and long-evolved ‘square mile’. The Metropolitan Police Service was created by the government in 1829 to meet the law and order requirements of a fast-growing city. The squalor and chaos of the London of the 1850s prompted Parliament to legislate for London’s first-ever metropolitan government, an indirectly-elected entity. Further physical expansion between the end of the 19 th century and 1939 generated a debate about the need for a ‘Greater London’ government 1. The second important factor in determining the kinds of institutions that emerged was the local power and parochialism of both the City of London and the parish-based or ad hoc bodies that developed to deliver services in the absence of a city-wide government.
