  • February 2021
    The Ruspidge & Soudley Parish Newsletter February 2021 Comment COVID-19 Following the sad demise of our dear friend Jeff, I took over as Editor of the ViewPoint at the beginning of last year. I recall my first edition (April 2020) mentioning Covid-19 and the newly imposed lockdown. Almost a year on, it seems like groundhog day! We are daily bombarded by doom and gloom, cases have risen, as have deaths - and we are STILL in lockdown! There is a glimmer of hope in the very recent reduction in number of cases in the FoD but sadly, deaths (topped 100,000 as I write) have risen. Lets hope that we are nearing the peak of this pandemic and that the number of infections, and then deaths will continue downward. Of course, there is a welcome ray of hope - the VACCINE! Forest GP’s and others have so far done a sterling job in very quickly vaccinating the elderly - and continue to do so. Judging by reports, FoD clinicians are rated as amongst the highest in terms of number of jabs administered. We owe them all our gratitude and support. Sad to say, it looks as if it will be a long time before life returns to something like normal I suspect that will be an even longer time before I do not mention COVID-19 in this journal. More Covid-19 related information below:- Your Council Needs YOU! Please consider joining your Parish Council. Three vacancies remain to achieve a full council. There is no deadline for applications. Council is happy to receive applications until all seats are taken.

Excluding listed places of worship, for which the survey is still incomplete,1,150 assets have been removed for positive reasons since the Register was launched in 2008.The sites that remain at risk tend to be the more intractable ones where solutions are taking longer to implement. While the overall number of buildings at risk has fallen, the average conservation deficit for each property has increased from £260k (1999) to £370k (2012).We are also seeing a steady increase in the proportion of buildings that are capable of beneficial re-use – those that have become redundant not because of any fundamental lack of potential, but simply as the temporary victims of the current economic climate. The South West headlines for 2012 reveal a mixed picture. We will continue to fund Monument Management It is good news that 8 buildings at risk have been removed Schemes which, with match-funding from local authorities, from the Register; less good that another 15 have had to offer a cost-effective, locally led approach to tackling be added.

The policies in the Core Strategy use these relationships and the general hierarchy of settlements. 1.2 The role of this paper is therefore to; Explain the role of national policy in the hierarchy Provide background evidence for a settlement hierarchy as used in the LDF 1.3 An understanding of the settlement hierarchy is important as the Local Development Framework (LDF) must set out a clear order of preference for the location of development. This needs to be robust, not just for the short term in the context of limited or no housing supply, but in the longer term when development requirements change.

  • Elections – Polling Arrangements
    Elections – Polling Arrangements Review of polling districts, places and stations 2014 Background information If you have any comments or questions please contact: Geraldine Randall-Wilce Electoral Services Officer High Street Coleford Glos GL16 8HG. Tel: 01594 812626 [email protected] 1 Review of polling districts, places and stations General Information The Electoral Registration and Administration Act 2013 introduced a change to the timing of compulsory reviews of UK Parliamentary polling districts and polling places. The next compulsory review must now be started; subsequent compulsory reviews must be carried out every 5 years. The last review took place in 2011. The local authority is responsible for designating polling districts and polling places whilst the Returning officer is responsible for decisions on polling stations. A polling district is a geographical area. Each parish/parish ward must be a separate polling district. A good starting point is to include the whole parish/parish ward as one polling district. If this is too large in order to provide easy access the area can be split into smaller polling districts. A polling place is the area or building in which a polling station is located and should be within the polling district unless it is not possible to find a suitable place. A polling station is the actual room or building where polling takes place. This information is available on the notice of poll and communicated to electors via their poll card. How the review is conducted The Council announces that the review is to take place. The Returning Officer must be consulted on the current arrangements and must make representations on the existing polling stations used.

Introduction Gloucestershire’s Local Area Agreement is now in its second year. This refreshed LAA builds on the strong foundations provided by our recently-agreed Sustainable Community Strategy, and on the priorities we set out in our first Local Area Agreement. This last year has seen partners focussing their efforts on the outcomes agreed at the beginning of April 2007. Partners have worked together to target issues ranging from reducing anti-social behaviour to promoting renewable energy installations and increasing the number of adults gaining NVQ2-level qualifications. In some areas partners have achieved national acclaim – Gloucestershire’s Warm and Well scheme has been held up as a national exemplar by DeFRA – and in all areas we have worked to join up our efforts to tackle what is important to local people. Over the coming three years partners will work to improve outcomes for children, support people back into work, improve skills for all age groups, reduce smoking, support carers, help older people to live more independent lives, tackle fuel poverty, address the causes and consequences of climate change, tackle crime and the fear of crime, and continue to make Gloucestershire a place where people want to live, work and visit.
