  • Durham County Council Election Results 1973-2005
    Durham County Council Election Results 1973-2005 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.

  • Sedgefield Local Plan Environment Chapter
    Sedgefield Borough Local Plan Page 1 ENVIRONMENT The Borough consists of distinctive landscape areas that together create its particular character and provide the setting for the built environment of the various towns and villages. Most of the towns and villages in the Borough developed rapidly in response to growth in industry and coal mining over the last 100 years and contain relics of the industrial past; some show evidence of their agricultural origins. Parts of twelve towns and villages are designated conservation areas. There are over 170 listed buildings of architectural or historic interest. The built environment provides the background to where people live, work and spend much of their leisure time and helps to create the identity of different places. The natural environment consists primarily of the countryside between and around settlements but also areas of open space within towns and villages. The countryside is mainly in agricultural use but is also a valuable resource for recreation, leisure and wildlife. The open spaces within settlements are of value for a variety of uses and provide an attractive setting to built development. Within the countryside there are areas recognised for their special quality and interest. There are four areas of historic landscape, three of which are designated as conservation areas, seven Sites of Special Scientific Interest and four scheduled ancient monuments. The landscape is varied and is divided into four characteristic areas: the Magnesian Limestone escarpment, the River Wear Valley Shelf, and River Wear Valley Area of Landscape Value, and the Southern and Eastern Lowlands. The Borough is fortunate in that there is little derelict land remaining from its industrial past.

The County stretches from the North Pennines Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) in the west to the North Sea Heritage Coast in the east and borders Gateshead and Sunderland, Northumberland, Cumbria and Hartlepool, Stockton, Darlington and North Yorkshire. Although commonly regarded as a predominantly rural area, the County varies in character from remote and sparsely populated areas in the west, to the former coalfield communities in the centre and east, where 90% of the population lives east of the A68 road in around half of the County by area. The Settlement Study 2017 seeks to provide an understanding of the number and range of services available within each of the 230 settlements within County Durham. (a) Identifying the number and range of services and facilities available within a settlement is useful context to inform decision making both for planning applications and policy formulation. The range and number of services within a settlement is usually, but not always, proportionate to the size of its population. The services within a settlement will generally determine a settlement's role and sphere of influence. This baseline position provides one aspect for considering sustainability and should be used alongside other relevant, local circumstances.

  • Northeast England – a History of Flash Flooding
    Northeast England – A history of flash flooding Introduction The main outcome of this review is a description of the extent of flooding during the major flash floods that have occurred over the period from the mid seventeenth century mainly from intense rainfall (many major storms with high totals but prolonged rainfall or thaw of melting snow have been omitted). This is presented as a flood chronicle with a summary description of each event. Sources of Information Descriptive information is contained in newspaper reports, diaries and further back in time, from Quarter Sessions bridge accounts and ecclesiastical records. The initial source for this study has been from Land of Singing Waters –Rivers and Great floods of Northumbria by the author of this chronology. This is supplemented by material from a card index set up during the research for Land of Singing Waters but which was not used in the book. The information in this book has in turn been taken from a variety of sources including newspaper accounts. A further search through newspaper records has been carried out using the British Newspaper Archive. This is a searchable archive with respect to key words where all occurrences of these words can be viewed. The search can be restricted by newspaper, by county, by region or for the whole of the UK. The search can also be restricted by decade, year and month. The full newspaper archive for northeast England has been searched year by year for occurrences of the words ‘flood’ and ‘thunder’. It was considered that occurrences of these words would identify any floods which might result from heavy rainfall.

The answer was less easy to find than the question was to pose.

  • Your Guide to Council Tax 2020/2021
    Council Tax Everything you need to know 2020 - 2021 Your guide to Council Tax 2020 - 2021 This leaflet provides information on how the council spends its money and Council Tax levels for the coming year. Understanding your Council Tax bill Each year the Government expects councils to raise money to help pay for the cost of providing local services. The money raised from local residents (Council Tax) is one of the ways that Durham County Council pays for local services such as education, care services for the elderly and children, libraries and refuse collections. Your Council Tax is also made up of charges for the police and fire service plus town and parish councils (where applicable) and the Charter Trust for the City of Durham for certain residents. It is never an easy decision to make, but this year Durham County Council will need to raise Council Tax by 1.99 percent. At least one person in each household is responsible for paying Council Tax, whether they own the home or rent it, provided they are over 18 years old. If a property is unoccupied, the owner will still be responsible for paying a charge unless the property is exempt. In certain cases there can be an additional premium charge where the property is classed as a ‘long term empty’ (i.e more than 2 years). In relation to the year beginning 2020 and any subsequent year, the Secretary of State made an offer to adult social care authorities. (“Adult social care authorities” are local authorities which have functions under Part 1 of the Care Act 2014, namely county councils in England, district councils for an area in England for which there is no county council, London borough councils, the Common Council of the City of London and the Council of the Isles of Scilly.) The offer was the option of an adult social care authority being able to charge an additional “precept” on its Council Tax without holding a referendum, to assist the authority in meeting its expenditure on adult social care from the financial year 2016-17.
